Esplanade Avenue is a fabulous area. It feels very safe and there’s a real tranquility to it. The room is sparkling clean and very stylish. A perfect place to stay during your time in NOLA. Download the RTA go mobile app to track the bus routes and buy tickets- that’s the best way to get around. If you are more adventurous, you can walk to the french quarter in 45 minutes or so and it’s a really beautiful walk.
