My husband and I stayed at Sextant Stays while we vacationed in New Orleans. We were told by a security guard that it is actually located near a homeless shelter, however, we did not have any trouble on our trip with feeling unsafe near Sextant Stays. They require a code to enter the building and a separate code to enter your room. By having a code requirement to enter the building made it feel very safe and you knew that every person in the building has a reason to be there. Our unit was extremely clean and had everything we needed during our stay. Sextant Stays is also very quick to respond to any messages you send their way. As many other guest have commented, the trolley is surprisingly loud. It woke us up a few times throughout the night the first two nights, but we got used to it after that. The room did supply a white noise machine, which was thoughtful. If you are a light sleeper, ear plugs might not be a bad idea! We would definitely stay here again. The location was super convenient for walking to different districts.
