J's house is a decent place to stay in NOLA for a couple of days. It's a bit outside the hustle and bustle of the city, but not too far away from the main attractions either (Lyft and Uber are your friends, it's around $10-12 to the French Quarter). The house itself has the feel of a cozy little hostel. The only thing we got a bit annoyed with after a couple of days was the loud heater in the room (it was quite cold in NOLA when we arrived). J wasn't in when we arrived, but came round the place a little later to tell us about the city and give us some tips on where to eat and what to do. All in all, good value for money.
