If I'm honest, we were a little unsure of the area in advance but the other reviews gave us some comfort. It did feel a bit uncomfortable arriving at night as the street is mainly residential, however I would absolutely recommend Georgia's place because we feel the location actually gave us a much better experience of New Orleans than I think we'd have had in the more raucous areas. The area of St Roch feels up and coming and the nearby market had brilliant food and atmosphere and local bars are excellent. Charles, Georgia's co-host gave us a fabulous welcome, showing us around the local neighbourhood, picking out restaurants, bars and points of interest. Ones we particularly loved included Arabella Casa di Pasta, St Roch tavern and Palladar 511. He gave us straightforward directions to the French quarter, which is easy walking distance and felt very safe. The streetcar stop 3 blocks away was very useful and punctual as another method of getting into Canal Street and the CBD. Rooms, facilities, beds etc in the house were as described, very clean. Bathroom fabulous and well designed. Great lighting. Quirky art - in a very good way. We recommend!!
