A short walk to the French Quarter and near some good casual restaurants for breakfast and lunch. The apartment is very nice and is set up to allow full cooking (and avoid restaurants for all meals!). Bed and sofa are extra firm, be aware. Not sure how to get in the building without someone else already opening the door but finding the lockbox in the mailbox area and using the keychain fob to get the elevator to go to our floor was easy. Hilton hotel parking across the street was only $20 for 24 hours but the deck is awful - super tight turns in oddly-angled cement steeply graded ramps that makes parking and leaving a hold-your-breath effort. Stressful.
