Cemeteries probably aren't the first thing to cross your mind when it comes to tourist attractions, but they can reveal a great deal about a place. Wander around Cypress Grove and Greenwood Cemeteries for some clues to the past.

This burial ground, located in the urban neighborhood of Mid-City District, won't cost you a thing to visit. Eager for some more sightseeing? Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Jackson Square and French Market are nearby and also worth your time.

The room and hotel were very clean. They are in a great location for all the things we wanted to do. We could walk or hop on a trolley to get anywhere we wanted to go.

The hotel is cool, good decor, neat vibe. The front desk staff is not great or helpful at all. The woman who checked me in knew very little about the property which…okay. But the next morning at 6:30am there was a constant banging. The guy Eric at the front desk was less than helpful and so rude. He made me feel like I was making it up. It went on for an hour so I got very little sleep and no following up or anything just an attitude. So that was a bummer! But other than them getting more professional and courteous front desk staff it’s a sweet spot.
