The place is really nice and spacious and is close to everything we wanted to do in the French Quarter. The washer and dryer were convenient and there was laundry soap to use. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
However, the basic amenities were lacking: shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispensers were either empty, not working, or missing; small fish bowl for drinking glass (weird), cracked drinking glasses; no hand soap, towels, or trash can in hall bathroom; only one table lamp in the master bedroom; insufficient blankets especially considering it’s wintertime.
Also, there were a few items in need of repair/maintenance. The kitchen faucets drips, the master bathroom sink drains very slowly although we were able to get it to drain better after repeatedly working the stopper mechanism up and down many, many times; the shower curtain is torn and should be replaced, the ironing board is broken and doesn’t stay up, and the baseboard in the guest bathroom is broken.
The unit is close to the front of the building so even though we were on the 7th floor, there is a lot of noise from the street, especially on the weekends which woke us up in the middle of the night. Gotta love New Orleans!
We had a rental car. Parking was $26/night. We ended up either walking or using an Uber for most of what we wanted to do because it was hard to find parking in the French Quarter and when we did find it, we were limited to two hours. In retrospect, we would have just used Uber and not gotten a rental car. We could have saved money on the rental, gas, and nightly parking fee.
The place is pretty nice but needs some minor attention to make it great.
