The place inside was awesome! However, I asked in four different emails for pictures of the outside. Liz said she would get them and never did. I’m guessing because there are a couple of questionable places nearby.
We also had issues with the gate lock (guests in other units were as well). I tried calling Liz Friday evening at 6:00 and she did not return my call until 9:00 the next day. She said she would send someone out. I’m not sure if she did because we continued to have trouble getting out. 5 minutes after I hung up, I got a generic message asking how my stay was. This just doesn’t seem personal like my previous experiences with these types of rentals.
She was very nice on the phone. It just seemed like she didn’t remember who she was speaking to. Maybe she is trying to manage too many places?
There is free parking, if you get there in time. However, it isn’t safe. We watched a guy back into our rental car. When we tried to stop him, he hit it again and told us not to worry about it. We could tell he was drunk so walked away and directed a nearby officer his direction. Luckily, he only knocked a plastic piece off that we were able to pop back on.
It is walking distance to St. Charles. However, they shut down the street cars the entire weekend due to parades. This started at about 4:00 Friday evening. This is understandable but wasn’t mentioned to us.
You can hear people walking and talking up and down the stairs and street. This didn’t bother us too much because we kept the AC fan running to drown it out.
The beds were amazingly comfortable. The decor was awesome and we had all we needed. The coffee pot is leaking out of the bottom of the machine (I didn’t report this after the gate experience).
I wouldn’t stay here again for the price we paid. However, it is worth the non-event price advertised.
I would like to attach pictures of the outside, but it’s not giving me the option.
