Owens place is utterly beautiful, with a real high end finish (I was in love with the bathroom floor and fridge in particular!). The outside of the building is more shabby chic, but the inside of the apartment is brand new! I slept well and the facilities were great, and the location cannot be faulted, right on Magazine street, on the edge of the beautiful Garden District, a short walk to the streetcar and central if you want to see more of New Orleans than just the French Quarter. One of my favourite coffee shops is also right next door! The house is an old, original building, so as such some noise does travel from other apartments, but nothing that kept me awake or interefered with my stay, my only issue was with other tenants not always locking the front door, but that was the only issue I can reach for! A beautiful home in a beautiful city.
