We (family with 3 kids) loved Theresa's place and her art (which is scattered around the house)! the area is great: less than 10 minutes from downtown and/or french quarter, and authentic (ie no tourists around you!, very local!). her recommendation for food/restaurant and hints for getting around were totally accurate and useful. we enjoyed every single moment in New Orleans and at Theresa' house. thanks for having us staying at yours! we only carry great memories of our visit.
