Our stay at April and Kens guest house was great. It was a ten minute cycle (April and Ken were mind enough to let us use theirs) to the French Quarter and had some great little local spots around. All the roads are flat so as long as the weather permits you can really cycle all over the city. We had some really great food at the Pagoda Cafe that Ken specifically recommended and ended up going back there for Reggae Night on Sunday. There was a really helpful list awaiting us when we arrived with restaurants, bars, transport info etc which is really helpful when you've never been to NOLA before. We really appreciated the local tips and managed to get to quite a few places on the list - it really made our vacation! The guest house itself was clean, spacious and private. It was such a blessing to have a washer and dryer as we had been travelling for two weeks prior to arriving in NOLA. The aircon works VERY well, but if you're a light sleeper and you're visiting in the summer pop some ear plugs in your bag (sleeping with the aircon off is not an option in LA at this time of the year!)
