Val and I loved New Orleans! This was our first visit and we are so happy with our choice of accommodation at Riverbend very near the famous St Charles Streetcar Line. This location in the Garden District was very safe and close to many excellent shopping areas, restaurants and interesting neighborhood walks.

Our Host Madison, helped us to make the best of our 6 night stay with all kinds of tips and neat places to visit and how to get about without a car. The streetcar experience was only a couple of blocks away and a great way to feel the essence of the local life in New Orleans and a safe way into the the downtown and Jackson Square.
Our living space was completely private and self contained with a comfortable bed. At first we thought we would need more plates and utensils for breakfast prep but Madison's suggestion of "Satsuma" at Maple and Fern dispelled any interest in fending for ourselves. We also loved Cooter Brown's Tavern (sports bar) and Superior Seafood on Napoleon at St Charles.
With Mardi Gras celebrations gathering momentum, this was the perfect time to be in New Orleans.
