The house was great, but the location was perfect! It's in a wonderful neighborhood with a lot of nearby restaurants (though most close before 6). On the same block there's an awesome breakfast place and there is great Chinese and Jamaican a few blocks away.
We were here for a week and got an$15 BlueBike pass that gave us an hour free a day. There are stations a couple blocks away and it's a beautiful 14 minute ride to the French Quarter.
On a few rainy days, we took the bus, which comes right outside the apartment and takes you downtown for only $1.25.
A few nights we walked back and it was a nice 35 min walk.
We didn't spend a lot of time in the apartment, but it was nice and did the job.
