Rick could not have made it easier or more welcoming. This was our first trip to New Orleans. Rick met us at the apartment, showed us how to get around and gave us all the ferry schedules, a very easy way to get over the the French Quarter! He had wine for us, and english muffins in the fridge. The apartment was perfect, and the air conditioning was very welcomed after a day out. Can't say enough positive things about Rick or our experiences!
