The work Joey's done with this home is worth mentioning. As someone in the construction materials industry, I can say that his craftsmanship with such a selection of reclaimed materials is first-rate. His work gives Big Chief a rugged chic appearance that looks and feels like what I experienced to be NOLA. The place is impressively decorated and spacious and all the appliances and fixtures worked without any problem. I spent four nights here before doing two in the Quarter, and it gave me a comfortable and beautiful start to my trip.

And then there's Joey himself. Super friendly host, and willing to accommodate me in any way. He was there when I arrived and gave me the rundown of what's good around town (and what to avoid). He said I shouldn't hesitate to contact him if I needed anything during my stay.

This was my first trip to NOLA, and I'm already wanting to go back. I will definitely rebook this place when I'm able to return!
