John's house was AWESOME! A friend and I stayed over a long weekend and had an excellent time. John greeted me and showed me around ahead of time & provided suggestions of some hidden gems in his area (like the coffee shop & food co-op nearby). We made full use of John's kitchen & loved that he had so much outdoor space which we took advantage of in the beautiful spring weather. John's house felt very secure & I liked that I was able to park my car in his gated & locked driveway, as I was traveling for several days before/after NOLA & had a lot of personal belongings in my car. Finally, John's house was in the perfect location to be accessible to not just the French Quarter, but also the bars on Frenchman St & the growing neighborhoods of Marigny & Bywater. Definitely would stay again, thanks John!
