Jose's place was very clean and cozy. The pictures do not do this place justice. The ceilings are high and the modern style blends well with the vintage build of the home. The neighborhoods in New Orleans can be sketchy, and even though we were beside a bar we felt we had good privacy and even safe enough to walk to The French Quarter several nights. We had no problems during stay. However, I recommend bringing enough clothing to wear for each day unless you don't mind going to a laundromat. Also, if traveling with more than 2 people in your party I suggest bringing extra towels.
