The apartment is even better than we expected. Well equipment, tastefully decorated, Saegan was very helpful when we asked questions about Internet ( we couldn't find the instruction for wifi so had to ask). We felt safe when we were there, but were told by taxi drivers that it used to be an area that was not exactly the safest in the city. Although it has changed since Katrina over the past decade. We still took taxi home when it's dark and didn't come across any issue.
