I've been to Nola before, so knew that staying in this neighborhood would be great. It's a 15 minute walk to the St. Charles Streetcar Line, and it's far enough on the line that you will probably get a seat on your way to the French Quarter. I ate at Shaya and La Petit Grocery while I was staying in the hood - amazing! I highly recommend both of those restaurants. Darleen was super-communicative, and although I did not need any assistance, I felt as if she was just a text away. Place was clean and private, the two most important things! I would definitely recommend for a solo traveler or someone traveling with a friend who does not want to share a bed (the futon is comfy for napping!)
