Great place! About a 10-15 minute drive from everywhere (about a $14 Lyft fee). Mel really tries to make her place feel like home. Always super responsive to messages (make sure to ask for her master list of suggestions for NOLA). Only cons: the room and bathroom could have been a bit cleaner (some dust and spider webs) and there was a bell that went off throughout the night (perhaps a wind chime) which was hard to sleep through.
Overall, would stay again!
