All of the reviews for John's place are spot on! I'm so glad we picked this place for our trip. My husband and I visited NO for our 2nd anniversary. The French Quarter is a quick $9-$10 uber/lyft ride away. We never had to wait more than 3 or 4 minutes for a driver. The neighborhood was fairly quiet during our entire stay. We walked to a grocery store about 10 minutes away (during the day) so that we could cook breakfast. We wouldn't have walked it at night bc some of the surrounding streets looked a little sketchy, but we felt entirely safe during our entire stay. John's place is bigger than it looks in the pictures. It was more than enough space for the two of us. He was super friendly when we ran into him on our way out once, but you have complete privacy. John was easy to get a hold of via text, and was very accommodating. I'd highly recommend a stay at his place!
