I was in Nola, visiting for a long weekend. Carla's place is adorable, and super close to Magazine Street and a bus stop, so everything is quite accessible. The area is a bit quieter than the French Quarter, and if you like shopping at boutiques and such, this is an excellent choice for home base. It really feels like you're staying at a good friend's place, like you're home-sitting or something, and that's a lovely feeling.
Check-in was a breeze and Carla was extremely responsive throughout the whole stay. We had a nice selection of teas and coffees and other beverages, and what I really loved was the little library and the fun whiteboard! I would definitely recommend the place if you've got 2-3 folks in your entourage. Plus, it's super close to Joey K's, and you can't go wrong with that.
