We love to walk and explore interesting neighborhoods, so we really enjoyed the location of this room, which is close to a number of up and coming art galleries, interesting neighborhood cafes and great local restaurants. Though we did it a couple of times, it's a little far to walk to the French Quarters and beyond, but there's a local bus and of course uber/lyft - if we were to stay in this neighborhood again, we'd rent bikes. The lock box made check in and out easy and convenient and Joe's communication was gracious. Other than that, I can't say we were very happy with the room. The apartment is on the ground floor and rather damp, so if you're sensitive to mildew or mold (or the cleaning chemicals used to cover up the smell) I don't recommend it. There's only one window in the room and it's occupied by an A/C which is constantly on to keep the air flowing and the room dry, so if you're not someone who enjoys having the A/C running 24/7, this isn't a great fit. The "private porch" entryway is especially dark and damp and probably only useful if you're a smoker and want to step out of the room to smoke in a covered place - it's definitely not an inviting place to hang out. The shared bathroom would have been fine if it were cleaner and had some more basic amenities, like body wash in the shower, but the combination of a shared, less than clean and poorly stocked bathroom was unpleasant. And while Joe did an excellent job of messaging us to check in, this same level of consideration was missing from the actual space - in general we found the room, apartment and amenities drab and minimally invested. Luckily, New Orleans is such a fantastic place to visit and if you're like us and don't mind being out and about the whole day and only coming to the room to crash, it may work for you after all.
