This place is almost perfect. It’s beautiful and stylish, well stocked, seconds away from Frenchmen.
You’re either going to love the location or not so much.
Just know this: “Your stoop” will be occupied by people hanging out most evenings til very early in the morning. In addition, the friendly people who work at the restaurant next door (which is very good btw) have used it for a “break room” for many years, apparently. Yes, it will get loud and noisy (not only from your stoop dwellers but from party buses, parades and brass bands headed down Frenchmen), and yes, your living room will sometimes smell like smoke. It is what it is.
Kay has provided white noise machines in each bedroom and they really do the job. She’s aware of the issue and does her best to help. (In fact, Kay answered our emails almost immediately, another plus.)
Again, you’ll love the apartment, but what you think of the location is your opinion. 😉
We 60- somethings will probably stay somewhere a little further from the action next time (Kay has a rental that fits the bill for that too!)
We love New Orleans and the food and music. There’s no question we’ll return.
