Nice place but the location is not ideal in my opinion, and included one serious incident in the neighborhood. The place itself was nice enough and met our needs. It was smaller but was fine for two people. Plenty of towels and the bed and sofa bed were both comfortable. The location is close to some good restaurants and is walkable from the French Quarter too. However, on our walk home from Frenchman St on a Wednesday around 8pm there were police cars right outside the apartment, and the cops notified us of active armed suspects in the area that were robbing people. We had to shelter in a friendly neighbor’s house for 20 minutes or so while the situation was resolved. While waiting I sent a message to the host and got no response at all. This might have been a one-off incident, but it still felt important to report it here. Also, light sleepers should expect to find it hard to get good rest, since there is a train that runs late at night as well as very early in the morning, and sounds it’s extremely loud horn very frequently. Also, on our last morning we awoke to loud hammering and other construction noises because apparently the roof was being replaced, which I understand, but we received no warning and were not pleased to be woken up that early because of it. Bettina was generally responsive and easy to communicate with otherwise. The internet did go out the first day we were there as well but was back up the next day.
