Close access to street car. A little bit of a distance to the French Quarter but the street car will take you to Canal and Bourbon St for $1.50...so transportation was cheap and not an issue. If you do party hard on Bourbon St., I would recommend an Uber on the way back. Host was incredibly generous. It's not a super fancy place, but who cares? Olive's place had everything ineeded including a desk which helped me get some work done during my stay.
