Buchi's place was very clean. I loved how safe and secure the building was. It had a 24hr guard downstairs and keys to the door and each room. The neighborhood is alright, very close to the french quarter by trolley. However, if you are not use to the "roughness" of new orleans you might be a little uncomfortable. I am from LA so I was fine. It's walking distance "6-7" long blocks down to the french quarter. I would recommend the trolley. $3 dollars for an all day pass or $6 uber ride. Buchi, as a host was great, we had little interaction. She showed us how to use the key fob and walked us around the apartment. She was very friendly and nice.
