Perfect location. Exterior very well lit. It felt very secure to walk to the streetcar at night. Quiet location. Very nice shared patio to read and have morning coffee.
The apartment was very clean and well stocked. It was a GREAT location...just a few blocks away from 2 streetcar stops and only 2 blocks from Fresh Market. The owner was very responsive whenever we contacted him.
The location waa perfect. Loved the Garden District with beautiful houses, delicious restaurants, great shopping, and the trolly/bus to take you places. The apartment was clean, quiet safe, and had everything you would need for a vacation. .
This place served our needs just fine: it was clean, easy access to the trolley line, all the amenities worked fine and communication with the host, Brandon, was excellent.
We had a great time and comfortable lodging. Located conveniently to the street car which made our trips to the French Quarters and Uptown very easy. We look forward to a return trip here!

We were very happy with this unit. Comfortable space with sufficient amenities. Off street parking and security gate were bonuses. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place
This condo is filled with high end furnishings. The kitchen is well stocked. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is clean.
This place really is a gem! It was clean and just as described in the listing. Check-in was a breeze and there was information about the area left for us, which helped as we had never been to NOLA before. We were within walking distance of several wonderful restaurants and a grocery store. The streetcar being less than a block away was also a huge plus. Would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again!
My wife and I had a fantastic stay at the condo. Neat,clean and organized and more TV channel options than any VRBO we have stayed at. Terrific location steps from streetcar and bus transportation. Walking distance from shops and restaurants also. Great communication with Brandon, our host. Very simple house rules. French Quarter about 20 minutes away by streetcar. Highly recommended.
Perfection!!! Adorable, clean, and well furnished. Everything we needed. And, talk about "location, location, location"!!! Streetcar line, Hop On Hop Off bus stop, and Fresh Market......all just a block away!!!!
Thanks for a great stay.

Amazing! Thanks so much, Karen. We appreciate your kind words, and strive to make lifetime guests. We look forward to your next staycation!
The area was safe and convenient. Out of the tourist area, but close to the streetcar. The property is perfect for 2 with everything you might need supplied. Very clean condo with thick fluffy towels. Communication with the owner was easy. I suggest a simple chair in the bedroom for visitors who might want to sit when dressing. and trouble free
Property had everthing we needed. Clean, clear instructions with prompt communcation with owners. No issues. Thank you!
