This place is walking distance to so much in the Quarter. The apartment is the age of the other buildings in the quarter but decorated very cute. A little rickety here and there but well worth the money for the balcony and the location. With the French Doors to the street side in the bedroom and the neighbors upstirs, it was very noisy. I suggest you bring some ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. There was free parking in nearby neighborhoods on a first come basis that seemed safe but we used a pay parking lot to be on the safe side.
