Gwen's house is like no where else I've stayed before, the main entrance room is amazing and as good in real life and the pictures! Gwen was very friendly and looked after us well. The room we stayed in was big and spacious, very clean and with basic amenities. Treme is a nice area, there's a lovely coffeehouse just up the street; 'treme coffeehouse', and getting to any other part of the city is fairly simple. We were told prior to arrival that the area was unsafe at night time but we felt fine. Everybody who we passed in the neighbouring streets was super friendly. I would recommend a stay at Gwen's, we had a great holiday and Gwen's home was a good base.
