Wanda was a lovely hostess! We appreciated the helpful info left for her guests. The neighbors were very friendly. We were unfamiliar with "shotgun" style houses, but it ended up working well for a mom on vacation with 2 teenage kids. We did decide to leave our car parked on the street for most of the stay, and took a Lyft to the French Quarter, due mostly to the cost of parking in or near the French Quarter.
