The location is amazing! It is a couple blocks south of the St. Charles streetcar and a couple of blocks north of Magazine Street. So everything is easy walking distance -- streetcar, buses, and many, many restaurants and shops. We got all around the city for a week with a 5 day Jazzy pass. It is very safe to walk in the neighborhood, even after dark. Many of the mansions were decorated for Christmas, so this was a positive pleasure. The house itself is gorgeous and our room was so homelike and comfortable. Adrienne could not have been a better host. Check in was so easy with her and she was always helpful with our questions about New Orleans. Boggs, the dog, is a delight. Our only regret is a freaky cold front made it too chilly for us to try the pool or sit on the balcony.
