We’ve stayed in many different Airbnbs in New Orleans so we do feel we have a great grasp on what to expect. So here are the pros and the cons.
Pros: Property has a private entrance so coming and going was very easy. Property was a short drive to downtown. Street felt safe and was quiet at all times we were there. Hosts made themselves available. Snacks and Keurig pods were provided. Shower had great pressure. Bed was comfortable. Great place for one or 2 guests.
Cons: Internet was not reliable. We ended up using our own data while we were there. The hosts were notified, but they already knew internet was spotty. Told us that sometimes it’s great and other times not so much. For our 2 day stay, we were never able to get service. Couldn’t watch tv at night after a long day bc the smart tv has to connect to internet. I ended up having to sweep the floor as soon as I arrived. Took a pic and notified host. There wasn’t a closet or a rack to hang clothes. Bring extra pillows from home as the ones provided are flat and there’s only 2.
So we’re not high maintenance. We know what we paid for this property and therefore expected more from it. If you just need a place to crash there are other reasonable places to stay at since I believe they priced it too high. And if you’re like us and cleanliness and reliable internet is top 2 on your nonnegotiable list than look elsewhere. Accurate reviews keep the hosts accountable and the reviews themselves trustworthy.
