This is a cute, safe, beautifully appointed little cabana, only a block from many fascinating restaurants and stores on Magazine St. (Baru, for example, was great, as was the Boulangerie for breakfast and lunch). Although there is a small refrigerator and some minimal kitchen accessories, eating a meal inside the cabana would be challenging; however, if the weather were nice, (which is wasn't for us), there is a lovely poolside table that you could eat at. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was lovely after a day of hiking around NO. There is also a washer and dryer, which came in handy.
