This house is perfect for a large group! I took 8 girls for my daughter’s 21st birthday weekend, and we had a blast. Girls should definitely claim the back rooms! The sinks in the front rooms are very small for female outing preparations!
The house is walking distance to the quarter, but be warned that what looks like green space (on the map) or a park between the house and the French quarter is some type of gated facility. You have to go around it. However, when you go around it towards Basin st, you walk right past a police station, and the walk is perfectly safe. A night walk alone is not recommended, but a group would be fine. The host was very good at communication, and checking was easy.
