The unit is definitely minutes away from the French Quarter. I encountered great architects, good food, amazing street performers, and enjoyable live bands. I had a good time embracing the New Orleans culture however there are some pros and con to this experience.
Pros- Definitely the property manager Joyce. She is a real gem, very sweet lady. She informed us alot about the culture. She was always available upon my call and she introduced us to some of the nice neighbors. The unit had amazing high ceilings, and really nice wall art. Overall, the unit had a nice laid-back feel to it. The cost of the Uber ($8) was great for traveling to the French Quarter. I definitely recommend Hand Grenades, Café du Monde, Parkway Po-boys, Fais Deaux Deaux, Willie's pizza, and Jean Lafitte Swamp Tour.
Cons- Within minutes of my arrival the main bed frame malfunctioned which prompted me to immediately contacted Joyce. Unfortunately, the situation was never repaired during the duration of my stay. The owner, Deborah, ultimately tried to insinuate that I broke it and felt no accountability for it. Therefore, if you stay at her unit and something goes wrong, please contact Air BNB immediately and document everything. I was very disappointed and dissatisfied in the owner’s attitude towards the lack of sleeping accommodations.
In addition, the third day of my vacation, I arose to find that my truck was vandalize. The window of my truck was busted and ransacked. Therefore, please be aware that parking is not the safest for the tourist in that area. According to the police we were not the only ones vandalized. This kind of act had been a known thing for quite some weeks. Unfortunately, I lost a full day of my vacation waiting on the police and trying to get the window replaced.
I definitely would visit New Orleans again but I unquestionably, unequivocally, absolutely will not stay at Deborah’s place.
