This was just what we needed. It was wonderful to have a full kitchen. The balcony was great and the streetcar stop is literally right across a one-way street from the apartment. The only thing I would reiterate is that New Orleans is a 24-hour city. There are bars nearby that are open all night. A band played one night and there was a Fight Night across St Charles at another bar one night. You could hear talking pretty much all night. That being said, my infant son was able to sleep through it and it was like having a free concert the night the band played. The host was accommodating with our requests.
