Our hostess was very accommodating and responsive. She lives in a small apartment attached to the house, but with a private entrance, so she is readily available to address any concerns. The house is located in the Gentilly section of New Orleans and is about a 15-20 minute ride to downtown New Orleans. We used Uber to go back and forth which cost about $10 each way. This avoided having to worry about parking in the city which probably would have cost more than $10.
