We stayed at Jay's place for a long weekend in December. Jay was very helpful and quick to respond with to any question. He helped us a lot getting bicycles that were comfortable to ride. The place was clean and the bed was comfortable. The location was a bit far from the traditional sights of New Orleans. There are buses that are within walking distance, but they only run about once an hour. Cabs to and from the French Quarter are around $12. If you are a comfortable bike rider that will help with your transportation a lot. At night we'd take a bus into the French quarter and a taxi back.
