The apartment was a perfect home base for our Jazz weekend in New Orleans. We were within walking distance of fun bars and restaurants and just a few blocks north of the end of the St. Charles trolley. We didn't need a rental car. Within a block of Carollton Avenue, we were also able to grab the bus or a taxi to get to the festival every day. The apartment was very comfortable and in a quiet neighborhood. We were looking for something away from the hustle and bustle. But it was easy to get to all of the fun events happening around the city. John was a fantastic host and we would definitely recommend their place to friends in the future.
