This rental really captures the essence of a New Orlean's neighborhood where real people live, work, play, and eat. I especially liked the easy walkability to some of my favorite places: Maple Leaf Bar and Jacques-imo (<10 minutes) , the closest street car stop on St. Charles Ave. (~15 minutes), Camelia Grill ~15 minutes), The Boot (~25 minutes), Gibson Hall on Tulane's campus (~35 minutes). I felt comfortable and safe walking around the neighborhood. The host was friendly, helpful, and a fabulous source of local information. There is so much going on in the Oak Street area that you won't discover it all. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. There is a nice outdoor patio area. I can't wait to go back.
