The property was very clean and is a great location (only a short drive from major New Orleans attractions.) Joe met us at the property to check us in and give us a tour. At first glance, the neighborhood appeared a little sketchy (the property across the street was burnt down and the next-door neighbor was evicted that same day), however, once we were checked in, we felt very safe. The neighbors were quiet and friendly. There is a gated parking space as well as available street parking. There were five adults in our party, and there was plenty of space for us all. We enjoyed our stay and I highly recommend Joe's place if you visit New Orleans. He is a great host.
