Gwendolyn's place is very charming, and she is an AMAZING woman. She has been recognized by the city of New Orleans for her service to the people of the town. In talking to her, it's evident that she cares about people, and she cares about your experience at her house. She has taken the time to add little touches that make a big difference such as soft, relaxing sounds that greet you when you come in the front door. Some reviews made me nervous about the neighborhood, so we drove in cautiously. The people in the neighborhood welcomed us in a manner that relaxed any anxiety that we may have had, and put us at ease. This place is very safe, very accommodating, and very charming. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in New Orleans!
