Great. The place was roomy, well kept and very well located. There are restaurants and grocers in the area if you don't want to travel far. Also don't miss Blue Dot Donuts, again very close. A bike path close to the house will take you right to the French Quarter. The path is well lite at night and I felt very safe. As a bonus there is the Wrong Iron Beer Garden on the path only a couple of blocks from the house. We had no problems with street parking. Be aware that the street cars will not go all the way down Canal Street at this time. The building collapse has closed Canal Street at Rampart. On the upside we took a cab to the area and it was only about a $12 trip (cheaper than parking in the area).
