I went with my two sons for 10 days in N.O. The location of the apartment is great for getting into the central parts of the city, as well as for relaxing in City Park, a few minutes walk away. The bus and streetcar stops are two minutes walk, from where you can make your way around easily and inexpensively. We didn't take a cab once.
Kristi and Todd are excellent hosts. They helped us out when we first arrived and took us to get some things from the supermarket and other helpful trips. Kristi also found out about things we want to do and sought advice for us.
The apartment is really pleasant. We used the sofa bed as well as the bed and there was plenty of room when everything was set up. There's a space just outside to sit and eat breakfast and a hob to cook on, if you want to eat in, on occasion.
The Mid-City location feels secure and has places to eat and drink within easy walking distance, on an evening. The Bayou is a short cycle ride away where there are other facilities and a famous "Po Boy" sandwich place, which is definitely worth a visit.
Overall we had a great time in the City and the apartment was perfect for us in all respects. Kristi and Todd's welcoming approach made New Orleans feel familiar and homely straight away, which is a great benefit.
