Get place, especially convenient for the convention center, as it was literally 1.5 blocks away. The neighborhood seemed very safe and surrounded by very nice restaurants, but not loud as all the businesses were fairly high class. I walked back from the french quarter (~15 min walk) around 9-10pm with my kids and felt perfectly safe. I would recommend you make dinner reservations every night, as very few places had availability for walk ins. The place was clean and looked newly renovated, kitchen was very functional if you want to cook and the place was very well taken care of.
