We loved New Orleans and we had a perfect stay at the Muse Suite! The house was extremely clean, well air conditioned, nicely decorated, and conveniently located. The neighborhood is not ritzy, but the neighbors are extremely friendly and chatty; we talked with neighbors nearly every time we left the house. From Villere Street it's easy to walk to the French Quarter and take public transit (or a cab) to all other areas, museums, etc. But the nearby streets have their charm as well; there are some lovely houses and gardens, and there is a cafe with great espresso drinks and sandwiches two blocks away and a good restaurant - Lil Dizzy's - also two blocks away that serves great southern food (for those moments when you don't want to go further). Gwen and Emmitt are extremely helpful, trustworthy, and easy to reach. I highly recommend staying at the Villere Suites!
