Marc's house is just as amazing as advertised! The house is an open space that is very nicely put together, which really puts it above and beyond the other rentals in the area. We had a small group stay over New Years Eve, and it was a great home base for us. In terms of location, we felt comfortable in the house and walking during the day, but we would not typically walk to/from the French Quarter at night. As Marc describes in the listing, if your goal is an Animal House style frat party, this is not the house for you. It's a very nicely decorated house, so it's really somewhere we felt comfortable as a group of close friends, but I would look elsewhere if you plan to bring the party home. Overall, great stay and I highly recommend Marc's house.
