Unbeknownst to us, we planned a weekend trip during Mardi Gras. We didn't know the festivities build up to actual Mardi Gras; but luckily, the location of the apartment was perfect for us. Not in the French quarter but close enough. It was nice having the comfort of the apartment to return to after a long day of walking! We felt safe and super cozy! The bed was very comfortable, we had plenty of towels, and the temperature in the apartment was easy to regulate. Great shotgun style apartment to capture the fullest experience of NOLA!
