I can't say enough great things about my stay at the King Cake Cottage. It was the perfect location to immerse myself in a beautiful neighborhood during a month of remote work. Everything you need is within walking distance - groceries, pharmacy, shopping, bars, and delicious restaurants - I didn't move my car for the first two weeks after I parked on the street around the corner (and it was perfectly safe). If you want to visit the typical touristy sites, they're all an easy, inexpensive bus ride. Take the number 11 bus along Magazine, or walk up to St. Charles for a ride on the streetcar. I wasn't ready to leave, and hope I'm able to get back again.
