Joey's house is as he describes it. The house is a typical NOLA shotgun in a historical neighborhood with close proximity to the canal street ferry. My friends and I (all female) felt very safe walking from the ferry terminal to our house (about 1/2 mile). This house is not luxurious but Joey is working hard to improve the space and welcomes suggestions. However, the house is very appropriate for our needs: a safe, clean place to sleep away from the noise of NOLA. I would stay there again.
