Tala was easy to contact and fast to respond to any questions. The unit was exactly as pictured, though I think it feels bigger and has more character in person. The bed is amazing, comfortable, bathroom huge, great wifi. Everything was high quality, nice artwork, modern, clean, current magazines and quirky books. There is a lift, so its just two steps at the front door to get in. from garage its no steps. and the area feels safe, quiet and definitely has less street noise then in the French quarter. The unit is very close to the convention centre which is why I was in NOLA. It was also an easy walk to the French quarter and CBD. If you book a tour with Cajun encounters tours (maybe other companies too) you can have pick up and drop off from the nearby (1 block) Hilton Embassy suites. I have to recommend four eating places also within a block's walk. All are cheap and excellent. Pulp and Grind - had coffee and small snacks (try the Earl Grey-blue berry scone.) Revelator cafe (salted caramel pastry). Carmo - this has more substantial food that offers ethical, healthy, tasty foods, fresh green coconut juice (got it every time), on top of meaty dishes offers vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. The cheese company is also a great option for meals- plus as they close early you can easily take away for dinner antipasto cheeses, pickles, bread, sandwiches and wine (mix of deli and restaurant). A great experience, I would stay there again for sure!!!
