Location is perfect for exploring the French Quarter and Garden District. Building is secured with a front desk clerk at all hours and they were very nice. Bourbon Street is less than 3 min walk but that place smelled of urine and stale beer. Not even worth seeing in my opinion. We really enjoyed the French Quarter with the live street performers (really talented) and the Garden District. Be aware, keep you cell phones tethered to your body somehow (I had a Bandolier strap) bc there were packs of teenage boys roaming and one of them tried to grab my cell phone. This was right outside the building! Definitely make use of the rooftop which has great views of the city along with lounge chairs and a small pool to cool off.
