Sally's guest apartment is a terrific place to stay. I chose it because it was NOT in the center of New Orleans. It is in a lovely area very close to Audubon Park and Tulane University. Very walkable with the streetcar easily accessible. Ride share cost on average $15 OW to get into downtown NOLA (French Quarter, etc). Once in downtown NOLA, it is easy to get around by walking, bike share, or public transpo.
The apartment is apart from the main house and there is a little back patio. The main bed upstairs was super comfortable. There is also a fold out bed on the ground floor. I happen to be there when it was unusually cold and thankfully, the apartment has heat. The indoor spiral staircase is a little narrow but an outdoor staircase is provides easy access to the upstairs. I slept very well.
On my last day, I had breakfast at a charming café called Satsuma and then walked to the park. If you are a jogger/walker, it's a great place to have about a 1.5-2mi jog/walk around the periphery. Sally is a wonderful host and provided the basic amenities in the kitchen to get your started (coffee, tea). It's a charming place and a lovely neighborhood.
