A little off the beaten path but we didn't mind at all as when we go to New Orleans, we aren't staying home anyway. We had 6 people and our teens found the futon / couches in living area comfortable. Place was clean and as described in Edward's listing! Although we didn't have any problems....he lives upstairs so that's nice. Dining table was big which we appreciate as sometimes we've rented places for 6-8 people and there are 4 chairs. We'd definitely stay at Edward's place again. Better value and just a few miles away (4) from the French Quarter and even closer to City Park.
