Mary's place is very stylish and a convenient drive to the French Quarter. Mary was very clear in her communication, and her check-in and check-out processes are super easy. Other reviewers have noted that the neighborhood is rough, and it is. We did not have any problems while we were there, and our car was fine parked outside the house. However, we did not feel comfortable walking around outside the house, so whenever we went anywhere, we drove. As people who prefer walking around to get a feel of new places, this was a disappointment, but overall it was a good place to stay, and Mary was an excellent host.
