I don't know New Orleans that well, but Frenchmen Street is the main reason that I visit. Great food, good drinks, and above all, fantastic live music all night at five different bars within three blocks.

It's a 5 minute walk to the happening part of Frenchmen Street. But we were also happy to spend a lot of time staying in and enjoying this comfortable apartment. It's even nicer than you might think from the photos.

Finally, our hosts were friendly and thoughtful. I called to ask for an umbrella, and then noticed they had already left one in the apartment. They offered to call different stores to locate hard-to-find film for our camera. They also have a three page write-up on fun things to do nearby. Couldn't have asked for better.
