We really liked this place. We were there during French Quarter Fest. We’ve been to New Orleans a number of times, but always avoided festivals because of the crowds. This place is within a short (10 or so minute walk) of Frenchman Street and another 10 minutes or so to the French Quarter. We loved that we could get away from the craziness of the festival easily. Once you get out of the quarter and into the Marigny, the crowds disappear. The neighborhood is full of good and interesting restaurants and cafes. Breakfast at Who Dat Coffee Cafe, lunch (or dinner) at Bao & Noodles or dinner at Mimi’s are all within a few blocks.
This place ain’t the Ritz, it’s a little bit funky, but so is the neighborhood, it fits right in. The bed was comfortable, the shower good and there is a complete kitchen.
