Georgia was a lovely host. She met us on arrival and was always attentive and available. The place is quirky and comfortable with a nice selection of the basic necessities. We walked during the day and took cabs at night. We called Carol when we needed rides from our first trip from the airport to the last. She's full of life and very friendly and helpful! The neighborhood was a bit removed from the nicer parts of town but we had no problems and generally felt safe especially since we had carol a call away in case we wanted a ride home rather than a walk. The bar across the street and more importantly the burrito shop inside made our first night close to home easy and the burritos were very good! Frenchmans street was a $5 cab ride away and French quarter about a mile walk with some neighborhoods full of character and some beautiful architecture to keep us interested along the way. We spent 2 days at Georgia's and 2 days in a hotel closer to downtown and had the perfect combination of accommodations thanks to Georgia's help and introduction to the local culture.
