If you want to get a real taste of NOLA...stay at Joanne's! Her charming home is walking distance from Frenchmen Street restaurants and bars. There was always free parking spots right in front of her house. Our private room was spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was always stocked with fresh towels, and the kitchen had fresh coffee/tea. We ran into Jo once during our weekend stay, and she was very kind and welcoming. It was like a home away from home!
