We really enjoyed our six day stay at The Columns Apartment. Russell and Penelope are prompt, courteous hosts who have anticipated a guest's every need. The apartment is very clean, well appointed, and beautifully decorated. There was an ice storm and crazy low temps while we were visiting but we were cozy and amused on Opelousas Ave. The days we did venture across the river, via ferry and rental car, we were always excited to return to the slower pace of Algiers Point. Three parks and some great cafes within walking distance made this a wonderful location for our toddler. The garden was beautiful and the onsite laundry a huge plus. Our whole family would recommend a stay here!
