The shot gun house was clean and represented the culture and area, which was something I was looking forward to. James even left a bottle of wine for us. we attended the Jazz Fest we had a great time . The location of the home was a historical environment that had a mixture of class and ethnic individuals we were safe the neighborhood was nice the neighbors were friendly it was several locations and establishments that we could dine,and or dance in walking distance. a lovely cafe was right around the corner we listened to local musicans while we dined. It was a very nice trip we didn't get to meet James but he was only a text away I would recommend this location to anyone visiting New Orleans.
