A group of us traveled to NOLA for my birthday, and rented both units in the building (Jane Milne and Watson), which worked out really well for us. Above all, Gwen was very kind and accommodating: she showed me around the neighborhood, checked in to see if we wanted a mid-stay clean, and held my bags on the last day until I had to leave. The location was ideal: just a short walk to Frenchman and Bourbon Streets along Esplanade. As others noted, taxis are a little harder to come by, but I think that is true of anyplace outside the French Quarter. The neighborhood is pretty quiet, and we never felt unsafe, but as with any other city, you need to use common sense when you are out at night. My friends (a couple) stayed in this unit (we were upstairs), but I did check it out and can say that the unit is as pictured, and is more modern and well-appointed than the other unit (upstairs is much bigger, but a little older looking). The only negative thing they noted was they could hear us walking around and talking, but that is to be expected in old remodeled buildings. I would stay here again.
