This location is perfect for the traveller who wants to be close to everything fun and exciting about NOLA without feeling like a cheesy Quarter tourist. It is a great walk to Frenchman and to the Quarter. I felt safe walking as a female with my 18 year old niece from Frenchman to here at 11pm, but use your common sense. The apartment is arty and fun and the main bed is incredibly comfortable. The pull out couch is also comfy and takes advantage of the patio to let in a nice breeze. The patio is fabulous to sit and have a tea or drink and there is a cute cat who travels along the roof lines to say hello. There is a train that passes by and blows its horn at any hour of night or early am, but it is the same train you will hear if you stay in the quarter so you cant judge it for that. If you like biking, take the confederacy of cruisers creole tour that leaves 2 blocks from the apartment and you will be a great tour of the area, a slice of history and be granted the chance to explore the gorgeous creole cottages in the area. Note, the locals are incredibly nice but are are not fond of AirBnb because of its effect on affordable housing..if you talk to one, say you are at a hotel! :)
