Kerrie's place is great for visiting New Orleans. The Bywater neighborhood is wonderful and filled with great food, cute parks and a very easy walk to everywhere from the French Quarter to the Marigny neighborhood. Kerrie made sure we had a pack n play for our son which was so much easier than lugging one from the airport. As others pointed out there are railroad tracks close by so you can definitely hear the train but I didn't put in earplugs and I still slept soundly!
