Brian has an excellent description of his place. Also all was cleaned and there was a good bicycle to ride :). Anyway, there are advantages and disadvantages that come from a place 45 minutes from the French Quarter (cheap, but a little far and not touristy place-Holy Cross-).
I went alone, but I think it would have been better going with someone. I recomend searching the news about Holly Cross before going.
He was an awesome person and really reliable man. Unfortunately I didn't hear him playing, but I listen to him on youtube... so gifted
