Miriam is a very kind and down-to-earth host and the accommodations were perfect for a visit to the heart of the Big Easy. The neighborhood is working class and full of heart; we visited for the Jazz Fest and it was only a four block walk. For the rest of the stay we used Lyft to get around although for those who like a good walk, the French Quarter and Canal district are not too far. We were extremely comfortable and Miriam is a gracious host. You can't go wrong.
