It's an old, authentic New Orleans house ... with everything you need. It's a quiet street, but there are a bus stop and an excellent bakery ("District") nearby, and many good shops and restaurants (e.g. "Ruby Slipper") within walking distance. It takes about 30 minutes to walk to the Convention Center or the French Quarter, but buses are cheap and go frequently. The best about the house is Dominic, he has been a great host. My flights were delayed and I arrived very late at night on short notice: No problem. You need advice where to eat, to get things, or just change for the bus: He will help. Relaxed and never pushy.
