This unit is located just a 10-15 minute walk from the French Quarter, but it really is the "cheap, dirty motel" version of an Airbnb. Even though it's so close to the FQ, the neighborhood does not feel safe. The house next door has 3 huge dogs that SCREAM BLOODY MURDER to every one who walks by. There are people lurking by the park at night and the place itself really looks like a motel. The property manager greeted us at check-in, likely because he knew the check-in instructions were confusing and the area feels not-so-safe (especially with the dogs that shriek at you when you arrive). The lock on the gate has to be wiggled while turning the key to actually open. When we entered the unit we found a dead cockroach in the corner, and later that evening my friend stepped on one when he was walking into the bathroom.
Overall not a five-star experience and would not recommend even if you need a cheap place to stay.
