This was a great home to stay in. The area is local to all tourists area. We walked to bourbon , French market, etc. The area may be viewed as “sketchy” at first, however, it is not. The area is being rebuilt due to Katrina. Everyone is very nice. The back porch is perfect for a night out to play games and grill. The host to top it all added to our great experience. The home is in superb condition and is spacious.
