I really wanted to love this place, as I booked it for my 40th birthday with a group of friends to experience New Orleans together. However, almost immediately we realized it didn't match the description, and our problems got worse from there. The courtyard is amazing, and I can imagine in warmer weather it's a great place to hang out. But the property is on a communal lot and there are several other Airbnbs it's shared with. We were woken up both nights by people in other properties. One of them is actually connected to this property, and people have to walk down a narrow walkway past this property to get there; as a group of women, this didn't feel particularly safe to us. Gwen, the on-site rep, is lovely and was helpful, but we had so many issues that we decided to leave and go to a hotel on our third day. We were concerned about the electrical safety of this property, as certain parts of the house would inexplicably lose power, and lights would start flickering even when the light switch was turned off. The heat stopped working, and then we stopped getting hot water. They did try to fix the issues, but were unable to while we were there and instead of doing the right thing and offering us a refund, Michael refused to do so. What you really should know is that this isn't really a house; I'd describe more as a barn. There are very few windows to let in natural light and the walls are paper thin. The garden lattice that surrounds the walls is extremely off-putting. Oh, and there was hair on the "clean" sheets in one room and a dirty towel hanging up. In short, I'd recommend staying somewhere else...
