I just noticed this hotel last week, Holli. It's right beside the Saenger Theatre on Canal Street about a 1/2 block off Rampart. This is, technically, right outside the Quarter. Rampart is the lakeside border of the Quarter. This area probably wouldn't be the best to walk around in late at night, but at Mardi Gras, Canal Street is very crowded - just be aware of your surroundings.

To john On our budget Lasalle seemed to be our best bet. We have already booked so we will have to make the best of it. By not so great do you mean a total dump or just your basic hotel. Any advice or information would be most appreciated, Thanks holli

Holli: The LaSalle is VERY basic but I don't think it's a total dump. I am concerned about its location across from the projects. If you do walk at night (rather than taking cabs), just take the typical "city precautions" and you should be fine.
I'd seriously consider splurging a few more dollars and getting a nicer B&B or hotel, however.
