The house is great- easy walking distance to Frenchman street for live jazz music, bars and food. About a mile to Bourbon street but definitely walkable. We walked home every night at all hours and never felt unsafe or uneasy- just use common sense and stay in a group. The house is only a few blocks away from the streetcar, which gives you access to the Garden District and Magazine street. We loved this area as well- it is so beautiful and lots of fun shops! The neighbors and locals are all very friendly. It was also very easy to use Lyft or Uber if your feet get tired. Lauren is an excellent host- we couldn't have asked for a better place. It is clean and impeccably decorated. Can't say enough great things about our stay!
