For travelers who have no idea about NOLA- location, location,location is paramount-it is a wonderful city but there are areas that are sketchy and they can be as close as 1 or 2 streets over without a tourist being aware. This area is very safe and having the hosts downstairs and plenty of street parking makes it extra secure for travelers who don't want any unplanned excitement on their trip. Not all areas of NOLA are safe to walk around in at night but this area is safe and it is still a short Uber or Lyft ride to all the fun places. There is plenty of sitting space if you just want to sit and relax and visit with your traveling companions. Easy in and out, super quiet area which is also not always the case in NOLA.
If you want to be in the middle of the chaos, noise, drama and all night partying that NOLA is famous for then stay somewhere else.
