The house was in a great location, about 20 minutes pleasant walk to the French Quarter and this made it a fantastic base for exploring NOLA.
The home itself was nice: a big living room, 2 good sized bedrooms and a decent kitchen. Window AC units in each room made the temperature easy to manage: my mother in law likes it warmer than my husband and I do, so having an AC unit in each room allowed us to manage the temperature really easily.
There was Hulu and Netflix on the TV which was good for when we were lazing around, and a range of books to peruse as well!
The neighborhood *looks* a little sketchy at first, since there is no sidewalk, the street itself needs repair and a couple houses were abandoned, but don't let that fool you. It is safe - we walked around at all hours and no issues. I was more cautious in the French Quarter (pickpockets) than I was here.
The only downside I can really point out is the overall cleanliness of the place compared to others. The floor is wood/tile and has a number of stains and marks which is ok because it's a lived in place, but what isn't as nice is going barefoot to the bathroom and coming back with bits stuck to the sole of my feet - a swiffer would be good!
