If you love the music scene but hate tourist traps, Frenchman St. is the place and all you have to do is step outside of your front door. Also the French Quarter is so easy to walk to from this ideal location. The atmosphere is fun and crazy. Our kids loved the unique bedrooms and multilevel spaces. As many reviewers stated, it's not quiet at night, but I personally enjoyed the street sounds and musicians that seemed to settle down between 11pm and midnight during the week. We felt the bedding could have been better, concrete floors a little cleaner, and parking can be a pain if you need overnight and in-and-out. Overall it was a fun place.
