For the price during Mardi Gras, this was the best deal we could find in terms of price and location. The streetcar is such a great way to travel around the city and this is about as close to the St. Charles line as you can get-- the St. Charles runs right through the Garden District, the Central Business District and can bring you to the French Quarter. It doesn't run its full route during the parades for Mardi Gras but is up and running again right away the next day. The unit itself is pretty much what you see is what you get. It was well-kept and we were provided with everything needed to keep comfortable. The only downside was a personal one; I suffer from minor allergies to mold/mildew and on the first night that we stayed there I had a pretty significant reaction while sleeping in the bedroom. We were able to walk to a nearby Walgreens and quell the symptoms with a concoction of allergy medication for the remainder of the trip, but if you have more severe allergies than I do then I would recommend finding a place that is not in a basement/ground level just to be safe.
