I stayed there with my boyfriend (he is Spanish, I am German). Sylvia welcomed us personally and she is a very lovely and warmhearted person. We felt at home instantly. The house can be reached with the bus easily. We bought a 5 days jazzy pass which was a great idea, we had the app but apparently you can also buy it for example at vending machines along the canal street streetcar line. Sylvia also had very good ideas what to do and suggested us a cheap but very good seafood restaurant (Deanie's). The house was very clean and has some lovely details which makes you feel at home. Sylvia and her husband Calvin were always reachable for us and helpful. We really enjoyed staying there and if we can come back to New Orleans we know where we are going to stay!
