Rick's place is located within 20 minutes of the French Quarter via ferry. The ferry is a short walk away and a quick trip across the river. The apartment was comfortable, easy to access, and even had snacks and wine available to us. The neighborhood is quiet and cute. We were able to grab breakfast at the Tout de Sweet cafe which was nearby and we highly recommend it. The weather while were there was a bit chilly and rainy but Rick has the place outfitted with space heaters to keep it a good temperature and even had ponchos available for us. I highly recommend his place and if we were to go to NOLA again, we'll be staying here.
