Xavier seems like nice guy, but we cam at a time when he was not available. So, we were greeted by his sister, who did not speak English, and who was not there to meet us. She came twenty minutes later, while we waited in the hall. So, we did not get a greeting or introduction to the apartment, which would have been nice. I suspect, however, that this was a one-off situation.
The apartment is slightly smaller than pictured but fundamentally as advertised. It was clean, and the kitchen and bathroom modern and adequate. The beds were ok.
The problem for us was the noise of party-goers spilling out of the nearby nightclub, of construction next door, and of three dogs in the neighborhood. The noise wasn't awful. But is wasn't great. Some would say that it is par for the course in the Gothic Quarter, and that may be fair. In any event, if you are noise sensitive, I would suggest finding a different place.
The value, however, cannot be denied. I would not hesitate to recommend to groups of friends our for party, but would not suggest to families with children.
