This condo is definitely close to the quarters without being IN it. Close enough to walk, catch a street car, or the hop on and off tour buses. There are two dogs next door (fenced and kept away from you, but definitely startled us when we first came in). The couch is pretty comfy, and everything's there if you need it. We intended to be on the move our whole trip and not spend a lot of time in the condo---- it worked well for us. I cannot say this would be a place I wanted to hang out indoors for. #optoutside #exploreneworleans
