John is an excellent host and his house is located in a nice neighborhood. You will have a 10 minute walk to the street car ,which will take you to the French Quarter via Saint Charles Avenue. Uber and Lyft have reasonable prices too. If you like good music the Rock and Bowl is around the quarter.There are good restaurants and a drug store nearby. John has an excellent knowledge of the city and its history.The room is very clean and quiet. You are a short street car ride to the World War 2 museum and the Audubon zoo and park.Looking forward to returning in the spring.
