I loved this apartment! It was quiet and cool, in a tree-lined neighborhood, easy to get into, safe, we could cook or work or do laundry over the week we stayed, whatever we needed. I had the best stay with my bf and my dog. For those who don't know New Orleans, this is really a great location even when it's not Mardi Gras. You can walk to so many things -- groceries, restaurants open at all times, music venues, bars, breweries, poboy shops, two snowball shops and a billion coffeeshops -- you could really spend a week just in the greater neighborhood. Plus you can walk to the street car, which will take you to all the tourist spots in style. You can even walk to the French Quarter on cool days --every year there are more things to see/do on Magazine as you make your way there. I'd love to make this my go-to Nola spot, and have already recommended it to friends. If you're looking for brand new soul-less condo, this is happily not it -- details like the nice warped wooden floors and clawfoot tub really made me feel like I was staying at a friend's house in New Orleans.
