Joanne was the perfect hostess, she was very communicative and flexible with our arrival and departure times. Her "house rules" are very sensible. The room was spotless, the bed and pillows very comfortable, plenty of places to charge phones and tablets, and free wifi. She also has a variety of items stocked in the bathroom in case you forget something small, just those little details that make you feel welcome. There is plenty of free parking on her street. We will absolutely use Joanne on our next visit to New Orleans.
