For the French Quarter, this is an incredible value. I've stayed in the Quarter a number of times and for a similar price did not have a private bath or kitchen. Plus, this place sleeps 4. Everything in the Quarter is small, so people should expect it. I didn't mind the 4th floor walk-up either -- I'm 65, and it posed no problem. I'm a budget traveler, and this is a deal for the location. The hosts were kind enough to keep our bags too after check-out since our flight was late. Will stay here again.
