We spent 4 days at Carmen and Steve home in Bywater. the apartment is big enough for 4 people. It's clean and has everything you need. The street is quiet and safe. Two nice restaurants are closed : The Joint and Jack Dempsey's. Jimmy's Grocery, open 24/24, is 50 yards away. Coffee house Flora is father on 2600 Royal Street. You don't need a car, there is the bus No 5 every 45 minutes and you can walk to the French Quarter in 25 minutes.
If you have a problem, for example calling a taxi for Europeans like us who don't have an American Cell phone, people at the Sport bar will help you.
