With other options costing 150 or more a night, Janice’s home is responsible, clean, simple, and a great deal for the money.
A “shotgun” home is laid out as a long, single row of rooms: you have to go through each room to get from one to another. Your bedroom is between the shared bath (at the center of the house) and the kitchen (at the back of the house). This means Janice has to go outside and all the way around to use her kitchen, so you should leave your bedroom doors open while you’re out to make things easier on her.
People of the low-income neighborhood of “Saint Rock” are welcoming, friendly, and always up for hellos, smiles or even a high five no matter how hard things might be, making it a safe but weathered 1.3 miles from Janice’s place to the rocking dive bars of Frenchman Street.
Although I’m slightly allergic to cats, Janice made sure to keep them in “her” side of the shotgun so I never had problems. Although the appliances are old and the bathtub narrow, Janice takes diligent care and cleans everything daily. As you can tell, she is very responsive and accommodating, even extending my stay at the last second when I confused the dates of my vacation!
