I think a previous reviewer, Alexis from TX from May 2021, summarized it pretty well.
tl;dr: The shower view + location are the redeeming factors for this place. Unless you're planning on needing two bedrooms + living room + dining room (but who really *cooks* for themselves in NOLA?!), you can likely get much more bang for buck elsewhere.
Details:
- Access: you have to KICK the gate open to enter the property (good luck pulling it open by yourself when you try to leave). I messaged the host about this right when we got there but no response.
- Layout/space: In the front of the house there's a living room, dining room, second bedroom and bathroom but because you can't open the shutters/doors in the front of the house (aka it's dark and you enter into the kitchen by the master bedroom), you likely won't use 75% of the space.
- Bed: Not great. Luckily I brought my own pillow.
- Cleanliness: Could use a good deep clean. While the main bathroom was was clean, most of the surfaces in the house were dusty and silverware had been put away dirty. Additionally, the second bedroom was a mess with a pile of laundry on top of the unmade bed.
- Location: It's between neighborhoods which meant that it's easy access to both French Quarter + Marigny without being loud.
