If you are looking for a great place in a great location, still on the beating path, this is it. About 10min walk to Bourbon st, if you are looking for that. Or 1min walk down to Frenchman st. The home was perfect for a couple. Now noise..I didn't need ear plugs, because we where out there with them...lol...its not a resort, it like living in Chicago in downtown, always something going on. I even pulled the lawn chairs out and people watched.
