Fantastic! Margo is a great host. The accommodations were clean and lovely. She gave us great dining recommendations, best places to see the parade from and directions to the closest coffee house -which helped with our Saturday morning hangover!
The house is less than 2 miles from the French Quarter, we walked when we couldn't get a taxi. The walk to the Quarter is along a main road so you will feel very safe. It is also easy biking distance to the quarter and there is a bike lane along Esplande, so that is a good option as well.
If you need a big place with a great host this is the place.
