I didn't get to meet Jay, but the friend I was travelling did and said he was a really nice guy. Apartment was nice and clean, beds and couches were extremely comfortable. Some drinks were even left for us in the fridge as a welcoming gift.

The neighborhood is quiet and residential, though I wish it was easier to get a cab. Most things are walkable if you would don't mind the stroll (a walk to the superdome is about 25 minutes).

Regardless, can't recommend this place more.
