During the day the neighborhood is very walkable with some adorable shops (Anchor & Arrow), places to eat (Elizabeth St and Bywater Bakery), and various outdoor art (murals and Studio Be). The room has a couple guest books where other visitors have left notes of their stay and places they went that are helpful. We walked to the French Quarter and took ride shares to the Garden District/locations farther away. Our stay was lovely and the amenities comfortable--FYI there aren't any stores around for items you might have forgotten so it's nice that Susan provides many of them.
