We stayed out Robin's house for several days. Although the neighbourhood may seem a bit run down at first, it is actually rather nice, with some good coffee bars in the neighbourhood. The city centre (french quarter) is in walking distance. Although the house has room for up to nine people, a full house involves the use of two foldable beds and some rather small double beds. Some of the single beds are very noisy. The house itself is nicely decorated, though could do with some renovation here and there. The windows in the bedrooms do not open and some of the floors in the house are uneven; the showerhead is attached with tape. Still, the house is perfect for a group traveling on a small budget. The kitchen is well equiped, there is a huge TV in the living room, and in the back there is a large garden with a bbq for the hot evenings.
