We loved staying at this cute little apartment in the downtown area, and would recommend to anyone needing a good base of operations. The location couldn't be better. We were here for Jazzfest, and the walk to the shuttle pick up was very close. We were also within an easy walk to the French quarter, and the WW2 museum, so it was super easy to get around without a car. If you did want to rent a car, there is a car park directly across the street. The apartment itself was fairly well-equipped. We had a good tv in the living room and bedroom, the A/C was strong and helpful during the heat of the day, and the kitchen was sufficient to throw together a meal here and there. The building felt very secure, and we had good communication with the owners. They got back to us very quickly whenever we needed anything. We highly recommend Krystal and Mandy's place as a good alternative to a hotel stay in New Orleans, and we hope to be back soon!
