While not mentioned on their airbnb site, I was informed by the hosts upon arrival that “feral” roosters live outside the bedroom window that begin crowing at sunrise. The hosts then handed me earplugs to help stifle their noise in the morning. The neighborhood, St. Roch, is off-beat and funky but mostly deserted after sunset, making it advisable for lodgers to take a taxi through this isolated area at night. While the room and the house were clean, be aware that food and coffee are a six or seven block walk away and, at certain points of the year, other alternatives closer to Frenchman or in the Quarter that include breakfast, a desk, side tables and a private bathroom can be had while keeping to a budget and gaining convenience and comfort.
