Denise was the broker that greeted us upon arriving on behalf of the owner. She was very welcoming, and took us through the entire loft and rooftop area. Upon leaving us, Denise showed us how the door for the building would work. The owner didn't get her the key fob in time, so we had to dial the actual owner of the loft from the callbox every time we wanted in the building. That immediately made me feel so uncomfortable and restricted. We escaped to New Orleans to be out and about, but felt pretty confined to staying in the building.

We went up to the roof to start the hot tub that we asked the owner about its privacy previous to staying; which he said it was fairly private on the roof with very little visitors. Turned out the hot tub was broken, but we were able to "fix" it; 6 hours later it heated up to 97 degrees. We left out twice around checkin, once to get lunch and once for a quick CVS trip. When we came back the third time around 8pm, the owner of the loft didn't answer his cell phone. We tried the "Doorman" option on the callbox, but he told us we'd just have to keep trying the owner. Eventually someone opened the door on their way out, and we were able to get back in. Once that experience happened, we didn't really want to leave the building again, but were forced to when the loft across from us set off the fire alarm smoking out our floor.

Upon going to bed we discovered how dusty and dirty the bed was. The duvet and pillow cases had stains, and the sheets had trash/debris all in them as if someone had got in with dirty feet.

Overall, it wasn't an enjoyable experience honestly. We left Baton Rouge to enjoy the nightlife of New Orleans, but instead we had to stay in a smoke smelling loft that we were afraid to be locked out of. We could have dealt with the smoke (not really the owners fault there) if we were able to get away and enjoy the hot tub on the roof perhaps or go out and about and feel like we weren't going to be locked out on the streets at 2am.
