First of all, look forward to a very attentive host. Krystal and Mandy always answer your questions in a timely fashion which is always a plus. The Location is also phenomenal! You are literally a block from the French Quarter so transportation costs for visitors should be minimal. The memory foam bed was also extremely comfortable and the decor was charming. Those are the good things I can say about this condominium. The rest of this review may not be the most flattering account of this location, but again it is based on my personal tastes. What I disliked others may enjoy, so here is my point of view.
You will be by a historic Catholic church, so you will hear the bells of the church ring-- day AND NIGHT. Also there are stunning city views on the roof of the building only. From your room, you will see the unappealing rooftops of other buildings for the most part. So be prepared to take in the views from the roof. If you're a swimmer, don't get to excited because the pool is only 3 ft 6 in deep. Other than that, the rooftop is stunning. The building itself is not very impressive- elevators were worn and the occupancy seemed random. It is a building that doesn't seem home to anyone, but people who flip condos or rent them out for a living. It was occupied by people during our stay but it seemed not by people who lived there permanently. I personally enjoy the personal "feel" of an AirBnB, but it seemed sterile of "home life".
Regarding the apartment itself, the floors are wood panel so they tend to be very slippery. The couch is more of a loveseat and can reasonable hold 2 average sized adults. Two people lying down is an impossibility. A pair of the decorative pillows were painful to lay against. They kept sticking us and felt as if they had porcupine quills stuffed inside. The only bathroom is located within the single bedroom, so if you had random guests over. they would need to go through the bedroom to get to the bathroom. Bathroom is a nice size, but the shower is disproportionate to its size. It is really for a single person only. Floors were slippery in the shower as well. The beam in the kitchen was much larger than what I noticed in the pictures insomuch you could only walk in a narrow L-shape in the kitchen area.
Again, the things I noted are not necessarily "bad" things, they were just not our particular taste. It is a nice place for a single or maybe a couple to lay their heads- but is not enough room for a family.
I unfortunately won't be staying here again as I feel a different layout is more suitable for my tastes.
Thanks for reading
