Such a nice place to stay!
We got the Jazzy Pass and got all around the city using public transport.
The house itself was very welcoming, and I loved seeing all the Muses throws! So many books and dvds available, suitable for all ages. Having a cart available to bring in groceries is a nice touch-too bad we didn't think of it before we walked to Rouse's.
Check out Piccolo Gelateria, one block away, so many tasty gelatos, sorbets, and crepes. Just a bit farther was La Boulangerie with the best croissants I have had in YEARS!
As for location, this is located half a block from Magazine Street, three blocks from Tschoupitoulas Street, and a few blocks from St. Charles Avenue, all with strong public transport presence, good shopping, great eating, and loads of bars!
Overall, this is a great place to stay when you are in New Orleans.
