The location was great; it was walkable to Frenchmen Street where we saw lots of incredible live music any night of the week. However, there were a few things that weren’t the greatest. The first was that the place is a double unit, which means whoever is staying in the second unit is only separated from you through a locked door. The lack of quality building materials made it so that you could hear literally everything, even if the other guests weren’t being particularly loud. We heard the music they were playing, talking, laughing, sneezing..everything. And it sounded like it was in the same room as we were. The hosts set “quiet hours” starting around 10p, but that really doesn’t mean anything. If you want to get any sleep, I wouldn’t recommend booking here.
Second, cockroaches. We saw a few giant dead ones laying around outside, but then we also found one on a blanket on the bed. We didn’t see any crawling around inside outside of that thankfully, but it was unnerving to find one where we planned on sleeping.
It was also fairly chilly the weekend we stayed. We booked for the weekend because we were traveling in our Sprinter Van and decided it was too chilly to sleep in the van, but then the house just had one heating unit and the heat only really kept the bedroom warm.
