There were cockroaches-HUGE ones both dead and alive in the kitchen and bedrooms. Now some may say it comes with the territory of New Orleans but that is not true-I’ve stayed in other airbnbs in the city that did not include cockroaches. The place was also not cleaned all the way including left over beer cans and what looked like rat poop (we also heard a scratching/chewing sounds coming from the kitchen so who knows what creature was making those sounds).
We spent less than 12 hours there because we got in too late to find another place to stay. When I reached out to Jay about the cockroaches and uncleanliness of the Airbnb he has never responded which is weird because he responded right away when I asked about accessing the Airbnb ahead of our arrival. He has still yet to respond and we have had to contact Airbnb instead. But he also has no problem displaying all the citations he’s received from the city for running airbnbs improperly on the walls.
The Airbnb also was not as expected with the living room space acting as storage with a drum set and other furniture taking up space. The backyard was not as expected with chemicals and whatnot laying around. If you’re a bachelor party or looking for a place acceptable by frat boy standards this might be the place for you. But for the price it is not worth it-especially when a cockroach is a couple inches away from the head of your bed.
