Different people are going to have different preferences for locations, but for us Darleen's guest house's location is among the best in New Orleans. It's a beautiful neighborhood close to a great stretch of Magazine St, but also within quick reach of the St. Charles street car, French Quarter, Marigny, etc. I was attending a conference at the convention center and every Lyft ride to and from there was under 10 minutes and $10. It's also possible to bike or combine walking and public transit to get to and from the convention center. The place is super comfortable with great outdoor space, and Darleen and her whole family were very hospitable, but not intrusive in the least.
