This is a great place to stay to get a great New Orleans experience. It's right on a bustling street with a vibrant music scene and night life. There is music happening pretty much all day and into the night and you can sit on the balcony and enjoy the scene. We spent quite a few hours just watching the street and listening to the music from the various street performers and clubs. It's also surprisingly quiet for being right above a jazz club--we stayed on a friday and saturday and didn't have any trouble sleeping as things start to slow down around 1 or so, plus there is the white noise from the a/c. We'd definitely stay here again!
