Tom was a truly amazing host and the apartment was beautiful. We felt really welcome when we arrived, and there was a well stocked kitchen to get us started. I was sad to leave a place I felt had really become my home over the last month. If NOLA is where you're headed, this is the place to stay. Mid-city has a great a selection of restaurants and bars and the zydeco night at the Rock n Bowl is not to be missed! If you want to spend most o your time in the French Quarter, it's easily reached by the streetcar (2 blocks away) which runs every 15 minutes. Enjoy your stay - we all hope to be back sometime.
