Great place with very welcoming hosts. It was like staying next door to good friends (and great tour guides.) The neighborhood is great with its own little nook of restaurants, coffee shop, etc. that are all accessible on foot. Public transportation was doable for us (native New Yorkers) but it wouldn't be a bad idea to rent a car if you'll be exploring all the NOLA neighborhoods. The apartment is private and quiet, it is the back studio apartment of the hosts impeccably renovated home, so they are always available if you have any questions or problems. The bathroom rocks. If you're cool and down to earth and not looking for a luxury hotel experience, this is the place for you. We would definitely stay again if we find ourselves back in NOLA.
