This is place is great. Great style and vintage touches. It was perfect for 2 couples and one single person. Plenty of room to hang out, the kitchen was a nice size. The location is central to most things and 15 minutes walk to a bustling nightlife. If you're like us and like to make many stops, it's walkable to the Music Box at the end of the Bywater, or the WWII museum Down Town. The neighborhood is quiet at night, yet close to the areas where it's bumping all night. We appreciated both.
The neighborhood may not look the nicest, there are still some dilapidated buildings in the area, but it's clear they are putting a lot of work into it, and the locals care. We walked at all hours and felt safe. Plus, there are some lesser known bars/clubs a couple blocks away on St. Claude that were a lot of fun and a lot less touristy than what you find on Frenchman.
