Tyra is wonderful and the apartment is just as beautiful and charming as the pictures. We would definitely stay here again. You are walking distance from St. Charles street (about 6 blocks) to catch the streetcar or you can take the bus up and down magazine street (picks you up right across the street). I felt welcome and comfortable at Tyra's... She's an amazing host and was able to give us some local spots to go to while we were visiting.
