I stayed in this apartment with four other young black women during the Essence Festival. This location is phenomenal! We were about a 10-12 minute walk from both the Superdome where the evening concerts took place and the Convention Center where the daily presentations and giveaways happened. It was super convenient because the traffic around both locations became difficult to navigate due to the large number of festival-goers but we were able to easily and safely walk back to our place every evening after the festivities. The apartment itself is very spacious, clean and comfortable and has breathtaking views of the city! The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and the neighborhood had a grocery store conveniently located 4 minutes away. Our host was a bit slow to respond at times but overall he was very helpful and accommodating, especially when we had to modify our reservation due to some group members cancelling at the last minute. Overall, I would highly recommend this location because it is affordable and perfectly located.
