This place just wasn’t what was advertised. While it hit all the minimums (affordable, clean, has the essentials) it really doesn’t go above and beyond in any way. The hosts did allow us to leave our bags in their home between our check out time and our flight time which was super helpful. It was easy to walk to many places (at least 30 minutes to the French Quarter though) and we didn’t have any safety concerns. Everything functioned the way it was supposed to.
The bedspread that was the first thing that caught our eye is now just a set of sheets and a plain blanket and a lot of the furniture is replaced with something more vanilla. The plastic sheet on the stairway does indeed breathe, the backyard is in disarray and we were blessed with season 15 of project runway until 2-3 am most nights. The neighbors got their roof redone while we were there so even while away from work I still got to keep my sleep schedule the same, would’ve been cool for the hosts to acknowledge that even though it wasn’t their fault. Construction on the basement scheduled by the host during the last couple hours of our stay felt like it could’ve been moved back a couple hours after our check out time.

Overall we were disappointed that the space was not as nice as advertised. We spent most of our time out exploring and just wanted a cheap place to sleep, but sleeping there was not enjoyable. Maybe if the price was lower we would stay there again, but mostly because of the neat places we discovered in the area and because we want to know who won season 15.
