Staying with Joanne was absolutely wonderful. I was only there for one night, but wish I could've stayed for longer. The room and home were clean and whimsically decorated. Joanne was very communicative and gave me the entrance information early on. No scrambling last minute for how to get in! She also gave me a few tips on where to visit on Frenchmen street that were great. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, about a 20 minute walk to the French Quarter, and a 10 minute walk to the bustling part of Frenchmen Street. It's a lovely walk during the day, but late at night it's a little empty so I would recommend either taking a cab back or walking in a group. That being said, I walked home alone myself and had no issues!
