It is super close to the street car and bus stops that go down to the French Quarter or Bourbon Street. Within walking distance of a Whole Foods, Willie Mae's, and a beauty supply store. Room was super clean and comfortable, easy check-in process, neighborhood was safe. I walked solo at night and exercised the same common sense I use anywhere else on late night strolls and I was fine. No overlap or challenges with the shared bathroom, I never had to wait when I was ready to use the bathroom or the shower. This is a great option and I would definitely stay there again when I return to New Orleans.
