Due to our travel plans changing last-minute, my family and I stayed in two of Alvin’s properties. Both were clean and well-cared-for. While we were in the second property, the smoke alarm began chirping incessantly. Alvin immediately sent someone to check the problem and change the battery. He was an incredibly communicative and helpful host. We will definitely stay with him again when we’re back in New Orleans.
One word of note: properties on the 3300 block of Elysian Fields are very close to the interstate. We could hear traffic all day and night - not a deal-breaker for us, but something to keep in mind for light sleepers or families with young children.
