Our host did a great job making us feel welcome. He gave numerous recommendations for restaurants, invited us to a clambake, and even provided gluten-free cookies upon our arrival. I found the listing to be as described. The neighborhood looks a little rougher at first than I imagined, but turned out to be awesome. There are a good number of restaurants within easy walking distance, including Couli's (my favorite breakfast place in NOLA now), August Moon and Superior Grill. There was not a TV in the apartment, but you honestly don't mind when you can so easily experience the French Quarter via the trolley system accessible just blocks away. I would highly recommend Kris's apartment, and I hope it's available the next time I go to New Orleans.
