Excellent location. A short walk to the shops and restaurants on Magazine street. Two coffee shops and a very good breakfast/lunch place close to the house. The WWII museum is 0.5 mile walk. The streetcar is a couple of blocks away if you don't want to walk less than 2 miles to get downtown and to the French quarter. The house is in a quiet, safe neighborhood next to a school. Yes, the kids are loud - but it makes you smile because they are having fun. If you are enjoying the city, you won't be hanging in the house. Perfect little house for two. My son and I enjoyed our stay.
