This apartment is a very cost effective and convenient place to stay when visiting New Orleans. The location in the Irish Channel, among many classic shotgun houses on a quiet street, is very desirable. The proximity to Magazine Street and the short distance to St. Charles makes getting to attractions in the central city easy. The apartment is about 2 miles down Magazine from the WW II Museum. Magazine Street itself offers many nearby shopping and dining options. Compared to many other lodging options, the cost of this apartment is very favorable. The host, Lauren, is very gracious and helpful. There is a lot of good tourist information provided, as well as a good collection of supplies. The apartment is secured by a gate near the street as well as the entry to the unit itself. It is on two levels, with kitchen, small bathroom and a living area on the ground floor. Access to the upper floor, which contains two bedrooms and the main bathroom, is via a circular stair. The stair was not difficult for us to use, but might be for older patrons. The apartment was kept cool by three air conditioners despite the outside temperature. In all, the apartment is a good base for tourist activities in NOLA.
