The room is big and quite comfortable. Location is close to everything, but you have to be comfortable walking around a few abandoned houses and buildings. Nonetheless, we were quite disapointed by the communication and hospitality of the host. We chose the place regarding the comments on how warm the hosts were. It did not go that way for us. Previous to our arrival, the messages we sent received only short and dry answers. When we arrived, there was massive work on the street, so the house was inaccessible by car - we think it would have been polite to let us know ahead of time. Our hosts forgot to tell us about the code to the door, the directions to get in, and did not hear the door bell ringing, so we had to wait out in the rain.
One afternoon we came back and figured out there was no running water in the house making it impossible to use the restrooms for several hours! We only found that it was because of the work being done on the street through a note from the company on the couch. The host did not inform us that the water would be shut off.
As hosts on Airbnb and other hospitality platforms ourselves, we tend to make sure we connect -even if just a bit- with our guests. Unfortunately we didn't have any of the basic interactions that make us feel welcomed. There were no questions asked about our trip or exchange of names, just the directions to our bedroom.
This is too bad, as we try to use Airbnb conscientiously and stay with locals to get their insights. Nonetheless, again, the place is comfortable enough, pretty well located for catching the street car, and the price fair regarding the accomodation market in Nola.
