The location was perfect for our time in New Orleans for a conference and generally enjoying the city. Very close to Bourbon Street and the 24-hr CVS on the corner is ideal. The unit was exactly what we needed for three people. The smell of garbage upon entering the building and up through the elevator is overwhelming; however, the smell did not enter into our unit. It's good to be warned about it since it takes you by surprise, but it won't impact your stay so long as you can tolerate it for 1 minute getting in and out of the building.
