Great value, super cute place!! Gwen made the entrance of the home very nice! The string lights and bird noises stay on 24/7, but the rooms are upstairs so it doesn't directly affect you. If you're a light sleeper the bird noises might bother you, but everyone in my group were pretty heavy sleepers. The location is about a 10-15 min walk to the French Quarter/Bourbon Street and is a nice walk during the day (I would suggest walking through the Louis Armstrong Park!) but at night it is a little sketchy, you would probably want to Uber/Lyft at night. There is a pass code on the outside door and pass codes on individual rooms, and overall the house felt very safe given the neighborhood it's located in. I never had the pleasure of meeting Gwen, but you can see that she's put a lot of work into the house.
