We loved this place, it was perfect as a base for exploring NOLA. We spent some time in the neighbourhood (Treme) going to restaurants, bars and historic African American heritage sites. We also found it a nice walk to the French Quarter - about 20-30minutes. You can also easily get an uber to other parts of town, or take a public bus which is quite cheap. The apartment is exactly as pictured and described by Elizabeth, who is a great host and very responsive.
Everything was very clean, well equipped and safe. The place has everything you need and is super cute and comfortable.
Things worth noting: It doesn't have a full kitchen. That wasn't an issue for us (why would anyone cook in NOLA when you can go out for great food a few blocks away?!) But if it matters to you, be aware it's a microwave and fridge set up with some basic cutlery.
Before we went we saw mixed reviews of the neighbourhood. It is in a neighbourhood that is still bouncing back from Katrina, and it is best to take a cab in the evening when fewer people are around on the streets. That said, we walked around loads during the day and found it to be fine and everyone we met was very friendly. If you're used to cities, you'll be absolutely fine!
