Miriam is an extremely gracious and helpful host. Staying at her place is like having your own small house in a traditional New Orleans neighborhood where you experience the life of the city as most tourists never do. It's very clean and comfortable and made my five day visit very easy to enjoy. I walked to the French Quarter every day, but ti is a bit of a walk for some. For a hiker, it was no problem at all, and it would be only a very short drive. The place is closer to and very conveniently located near City Park and the Fairgrounds. A stay at Miriam's apartment provides a great value for your New Orleans vacation. I'll certainly return at the next opportunity. Thanks to Miriam for being so accommodating and making this venue open to visitors to her fascinating city.
