The condo was clean and nicely located near the Gothic Quarter. Angel was easy to get in touch with and responded quickly to all of my messages. He was even able to help us get an early check in which was very much appreciated after a very early morning flight.
While the condo was clean and as pictured, I wouldn’t say I would stay here again. We had four adults in our group and the space was tight and ill-equipped for a multiple day stay. I would describe everything in the condo as meeting the “bare minimum”, sterile, and not worth the $168+ cost per night.
From the beginning, it was clear that this Airbnb is part of a larger chain of rentals and not someone’s home. I personally rent Airbnbs so I can cut down on cooking costs and have some of the basic amenities that a hotel wouldn’t provide. The condo didn’t end up meeting these expectations.
The condo lacked basic living and cooking necessities like wine glasses, coffee cups, ice tray, paper towels, cooking oil, salt/pepper, coffee, laundry detergent, pen and paper, etc. Also, of the things they did provide, it was a very small amount and we would have to pay to get more (4 drinking glasses, 3 trash bags, a very small 30mL pouch of dishwashing liquid, etc.). They did not have any maps, guide books, or power converters like many other Airbnbs have had. They also provided soap for the bathroom and shower but it’s basically industrial grade soap that you would find in a restaurant or other business, not in a home.
Finally, there must be something wrong with the pipes in the building because the smell that came out of the hallway bathroom was one of the worst I’ve ever encountered. Also, the sink continually stopped up and wouldn’t drain making that bathroom pretty unusable.
Generally the entire experience felt cheap and not worth what we paid. I did enjoy the outdoor patio and the location but that wouldn’t be enough for me to come back.
