Don was extremely communicative before our stay and all during our stay. If we had any question, he was available to answer it. The apartment is very spacious and there was bottled water provided for us to take with us when we went out and about. The bathroom was stocked with toiletries, hair dryer, etc which was really nice in case you forgot something. The 2 front bedrooms don't have much privacy, though they seemed larger than the back 2 which have doors for privacy and are a tight fit with 2 people and suitcases. Both of the beds back there were mighty noisy, as well. The back right bedroom shares a wall with the other upstairs unit and the walls must be thing because we were very aware when they came home that night! There is only one bathroom, so if you have 8 people sharing the space, take note of that. The water pressure in the shower wasn't the best I've had, but it sufficed.

The one downfall for us was the location. It was a 10 minute walk to Frenchmen Street and from there just a few minutes into the Quarter. The neighborhood didn't feel particularly safe, and our Uber drivers agreed with that sentiment. We didn't run into any issues personally, but just got a feeling it wasn't the safest neighborhood in town. During the day we did walk to and from the Quarter, but I would not suggest it at night.

Overall, big space for the money you spend and great hosts, but the neighborhood did leave us uneasy after dark.
