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! ##### Georgette M.

Everything one might expect and more (e.g., filtered water).Clean - Would pass the white glove test with flying colors.Convenient - Easy streetcar access, grocery just across the street, @ 10 min walk to restaurants/shops on Magazine St. Parking spot right next to condo, although we did not drive anywhere and visited the French Quarter, the zoo, City Park, several cemeteries, WWII museum, and more. A new adventure everyday day, then returned to a cool, comfortable place to rest and rejuvenate. ##### Bob W.

We spent hours walking the Garden District, sitting in the courtyard. And when we wanted music and great food... it was a streetcar ride away! Hint; get streetcar passes, you’ll be surprised how much you use them. ##### Jean C. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danielle J. 25 Mar 2019 #### Affordable and great location! This place did not disappoint! Our stay at Brandon’s place was perfect. The property was just as pictured. The location is super convenient, especially since we did not want to stay in the French Quarter during this trip. The proximity to the St. Charles street car (1 block) was very convenient. Overall, the neighborhood felt safe...even when walking from Magazine street late at night. The hosts were quick to respond to my questions leading up to the stay and during our stay. We highly recommend this place, and we will definitely try to book this place again. ##### Danielle J. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019
