This is a great location close to Magazine Street with all its charming shops and restaurants. Very close to the excellent WWII museum. Perfect for Mardi Gras as most of the parades are one block away on St. Charles. The St. Charles street car does not run during Mardi Gras but we enjoyed the 1/2 hour walk to the French Quarter. The apartment was immaculate, there are good supplies in the kitchen for cooking, many windows let in natural light, and there is an excellent cooling/heating system that was important when it became unusually cold the last couple of days. Eric responded quickly to all our questions. Highly recommended.
