The place is perfect for folks who don't plan on spending all day inside. Even if you do, it comes with a phenomenal shower, washer/dryer, and Netflix. We walked EVERYWHERE and it was no trouble. The French Quarter was about a mile or so and we also walked back from Frenchman Street after long nights and were safe; never felt out of place or anything of the sort.
Our host was attentive and helpful, providing points of interest, tips to travel, and must eat places. I would highly recommend this place and hope to stay here again!
