Staying with Jo was a real pleasure. We (myself and 2 others) were very warmly greeted and were treated as if it were our home as well. We never felt unwelcomed or out of place. If you're at all bohemian, then this is the place for you (if you have no bohemian spirit...well, that's a shame, and it might not be the place for you). But we were very happy with our experience and would rent with Jo again. Plus, it's only several blocks walk to the French Quarter...and through a great, musically jamming section of the Marigny. So, it was close to everything without the FQ costs.
