I stayed at Jim's property during the busy Mardi Gras festivities. The location was easily walk-able to popular destinations during the day time, even the nighttime as well if you are in a group. Uber's were extremely cheap to get around/to the farther destinations.
Jim stayed in the very back room of the house during our stay and believe me when I say that was no problem at all. We played our music loudly during the daytime, pre gamed for partying on Bourbon street, and had zero issues with Jim being around. He was friendly, informative, and responsive.
Great place to stay and we will be back if we ever come to New Orleans!
