Perfect for our needs!
Great location for the active traveler who enjoys walking a mile through the Garden District to shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, or a quick block to the streetcar to head to the Quarter or Uptown.
The unit is comfortable in hot weather, quiet, and very well appointed (not fancy, just functional). The outdoor space was a pleasant surprise.
The most challenging part of Don’s place is the very steep and tight staircase up to the bedroom and the only bathroom. I’m a reasonably fit 65 year old and wouldn’t let it stop me from returning, but for some it’s a deal breaker.
I would describe the immediate neighborhood as “transitional”. There are abandoned properties very nearby along with million dollar-plus well kept mansions.
I personally never felt a moment of insecurity even arriving very late at night.
