While the price is affordable, be prepared to take cabs a lot. If you're staying in Treme, you have to walk under the highway to get to the French Quarter, etc. After talking to a few locals during the beginning of our stay in NOLA we were advised to NOT walk under the highway at night. We're from NYC where you walk pretty much everywhere safely, so I was a little frustrated that we needed to take Ubers to and from. If you're looking to be walking distance from the hustle and bustle of downtown you should probably spend a little more $ and get a place between Rampart and Decatur Streets.
Iris is a friendly host with a quick response time and knack for interior design. Her home reminds me of a hostel with multiple rooms for lodging, so be prepared to share a bathroom, kitchen and common areas.
