To be fair, the house pics are somewhat misleading. It is indeed full of historic character and has interesting decor. However, the reality is that it is VERY DARK, not much light comes in as the house is sandwiched up against the Baptist Friendship House and another house that's pretty rough looking, and the drapes are very heavy and don't move. We had to call maintenance because the bedroom door handle fell off, essentially locking us out, and the kitchen door would not stay latched/locked, kept blowing open. Maintenance came within a few hours and fixed both issues. The house is in the Marigny, fun neighborhood near some great music clubs on Frenchman Street. You definitely need to be cautious, esp. at night as this is not a very safe neighborhood. The only other issue we had is that there is hardly any water pressure for the shower. The beds are super comfy and even though the house is on a busy highway, the bedrooms are in the back so the traffic noise isn't a huge issue. The kitchen has only the very basics, so if you need anything beyond that this is not the house for you. There is no working stove, which was clearly communicated to us prior to our stay.
