The apartment was as described. There is also a full kitchen with gas oven, large fridge, and plenty of utensils. The apartment is quiet, has a great shower, laundry, comfortable bed, and of course the porch. There was always parking on the street. An easy arrangement to get keys. One block away is the street car. On Mardi Gras day, truck parades start one block away. A great retreat after a day in the Quarter or Marginy.
