In the end I was comfortable with the neighborhood and I found it walkable to the French Quarter especially to Frenchman Street. it was also near a 24 hour popular place called melbas. your first impression of the neighborhood will make you a little nervous but I never saw anything to be nervous about. a taxi ride home was only $7 so that was very easy. I never met my hosts nor did they inquire if I needed anything. To be more like a genuine B&B experience I think the host should welcome the guest and inquire if they need anything.

but the room was comfortable it was quiet there was a coffee pot. I did find old coffee in the pot that had mold growing on it so I had to clean that out. there's a small refrigerator that I didn't use. It was actually a bit more interesting to be in a gentrifying neighborhood than in the more touristy parts of town.
