Charla was very friendly and accommodating. The neighborhood is undergoing 'gentrification' and Charla's house is very cute and renovated nicely. The location is only 6 blocks from the St Charles streetcar and the Garden District. If guests have a car, leave it at Charla's and take the streetcar and save the hassle of finding parking in the French Quarter or French Market (not the mention the expense). Charla offered "anything in the fridge" and the use of the washer and dryer. There is no tv to speak of but if guests are in New Orleans to experience the night life and all it has to offer, a tv is not a necessity. Charla has a 4 legged friend Tilly who can be a bit noisy but is very friendly. We felt comfortable coming and going and enjoyed our short visits with Charla.
