Overall, this is a nice place to stay. The location is great for walking to the French Quarter, Canal, Central Biz, Magazine, etc. The street noise is constant, but the 4 bedrooms are away from the front, and none of them have windows. This makes for very dark room sleeping which is nice. The bathrooms are nice, the showers oversized, and the water is hot. The one issue with the property is the trash smell on the ground floor. It will stink to high heaven while you wait for the elevator. The communal "trash room" is adjacent on that floor. You can take the stairs which allows you to bypass most of the smell. Once you're up in the apartment, there is no more smell. Minor inconvenience but worth noting.
