Such a wonderful place to stay! Beautiful inside and out. It was so cool to stay in such a historical neighborhood and yet be so close to the French Quarter. The host very good about getting back to you during your stay if you needed anything like more towels. There was a cute coffee shop down the street if you walk South on N Villere about 3 blocks. (Corner of St. Philip St and N Villere) We went there almost every morning for coffee and/or some scones. Walking to the French Quarter is only about a 10/15min walk. I would recommend walking down to Esplanade Ave or St Philip St to then walk down to the French Quarter. They just felt like more populated/safer streets to walk down than like Governor Nicholls.
Definitely recommend this place!
