This condo is clean and gorgeous. Looks just like the pictures -- maybe better. Communication with the host was superb. Check in was quick and easy and he was very flexible with check-in/check-out times. The balcony was a fun place to people watch! The location of this condo really cannot be beat if you're looking to explore New Orleans and the French Quarter. With that, however, comes a lot of noise that, as many mentioned, is thankfully barely audible in the bedrooms but if you're a light sleeper, it may not be ideal. During our stay, bars were still required to close at 11pm but I imagine once restrictions are lifted, it will be quite active into the wee hours of the morning. Unless you're okay with being far from all the action, any place in or near the Quarter is going to be noisy so don't be deterred -- just prepared! The activity is also a good thing in terms of safety. We never felt nervous coming or going like we might have on a quiet, empty street late at night. We really enjoyed our stay!!
