We had a great one week stay with Jay at The Casa Blanca in the Turquesa Room. The room/house was exactly as described and pictured. Super convenient to multiple bus routes that took us to the French Quarter and Magazine Street shopping area. Cabs from the French Quarter were $12-13 (cheaper if you catch it on Canal St instead of inside the Quarter). We were able to watch the Second Line as it passed within blocks of the house on Sunday. Also nearby are two great food stops - Cajun Express for delicious fried seafood and Fred's BBQ for BBQ. We didn't end up using the bicycles as we expected (as the buses were so convenient), but their were multiple bikes in good shape had we needed them. The free WiFi was fantastic - made planning our days much simpler! Sharing the bathroom was not a problem (and there is a new half bath!), as we never saw the other house guests. I believe there were two separate couples who stayed during our stay - the first couple was fairly loud, but we never heard a peep from the other couple. The only negative that I can note is that it appears Jay is remodeling the upstairs of the house, so no sleeping in during the week. But this may not be an issue for your stay once the work is done!

Overall, a great stay and I would highly recommend this room! Jay is a great host, very responsive to questions.
