We had a great time in NOLA and really enjoyed Gabrielle's artsy home. If you are up for getting in a good walk (which we were) you can take her street down to the levy for a scenic view of the city. It was only a 30-40 minute walk to the French Quarter from her place. We loved the art in the neighbor and the local restaurants close by as well. We had a group of 4 and every one slept comfortably...parking was super easy as well. We didn't have to drive anywhere. After a long night we caught a cab home (best to walk into the French Quarter as cabs can take up to an hour to pick up...those that answer the phone that is). We definitely recommend Gabrielle's wonderful home. She was a great host and always responded promptly if we had any questions.
