We stayed at Tom's apartment for a week of beautiful (85'ish) weather in October. Tom is a wonderful host, full of helpful local knowledge! We took him up on several recommendations for great local dining and events and we were never steered wrong. As for the apartment- it feels like home away from home. It's private, clean, very spacious and nicely appointed. 90.7 wwoz jazz/blues playing on the radio as we walk in. Nicely airconditioned, stocked fridge. Very comfortable bed..what more could you ask for? The house is in a very nice neighborhood with very convenient access to city park as well as the french quarter. The canal st trolley and bus routes are steps away- or you can use Toms complimentary bikes. Awesome! You will find that New Orleans is very friendly and anyone you see on the street is quick to say hello or give a friendly nod, and this is especially true in Mid-City. We were so happy we choose to stay at Tom's in mid-city vs down in the sometimes noisy/smelly/busy (depending on the street) french quarter. It's a lot of fun to visit the quarter- the shopping and libations are great!-, but it's so nice to come 'home' to quiet mid-city. Also, you're steps away from some awesome local dining! Juans Burrito, Mandinas restaurant, a superb gelato shop, multiple pubs, and a bowling alley/live music-dance hall (Rock 'n Bowl). Walgreens as well as supermarkets are minutes away by foot should you need any convenience or food items.

My wife and I agonized over choosing a place to stay in NOLA (not having been there before), and I don't believe we could have picked a better place to stay than Toms. The neighborhood and the apartment truly felt like our home away from home.

Choose Toms and enjoy NOLA!
