I stayed at the apartment for about five days. It was well maintained, looked good, and was very clean. There was even coffee available which was great!
Jose is a good host, he was available for questions, responded quickly, and even gave a list of recommendations for things to do. The apartment I originally booked apparently wasn’t usable, but he let me know promptly and put me in a different apartment in the same complex - no extra costs and no issues at all.
One thing to be aware of is that the neighbourhood looks a bit rough, there’s a lot of graffiti and the buildings seem run down, but the neighbours were friendly and I felt safe nevertheless - especially after entering the security gate. I even walked home by myself at night and didn’t have any issues. French Quarter is about 20 minutes away, and a nice walk through a very pretty street (Esplanade avenue). There is also a streetcar line and a busline very nearby the apartment, so it’s easy to get to wherever you want to go.
