From here, it is just a few blocks to Magazine Street with plenty of restaurants and shops. Just a few blocks past that, you can grab the St. Charles Ave trolley and get to the French Quarter. Our host had great recommendations for us, was very accommodating and super quick in answering any questions we had. There are always a lot of people around, but we didn't mind since we pretty much only slept here and didn't hang around. Great place for the price, wow.
