Issac was great & very fast to reply to questions. The place is great for large parties and served our bachelor's weekend group of 7 perfectly. The neighborhood can make you a little nervous, but like anywhere, as long as you're smart and safe, there's really nothing to worry about. We walked to Bourbon St. our first night, which ended up being quite the walk, but doable. Parking can be easy if you remember to leave a trash can out to save your spot. We had a shrimp boil in the backyard that was perfect! There was even a large table in the closet with chairs that we used. If you plan on eating outside though, buy citronella candles!! The nats were CRAZY and all over the food.
