Matthews place was wonderful! We stayed during Halloween weekend and had a blast. The place was very accommodating and had everything we needed and more! Anytime we needed assistance Matthew was at our service. Like many others have said...don't let the neighborhood throw you off...we walked back very late at night from Melba's (which by the way had awesome food!) with no worries and the home is right in front of a school so we got to see the children play on many occasions. This is definitely a place I would recommend if you're coming to New Orleans!
