This house is nice for larger parties looking for a home base, at a decent price. It's a good 15 minute walk to Frenchmen Street or Bourbon Street, but it really isn't too bad. You can also take a Lyft anywhere very easily. The house is located in a neighborhood next to the highway, but we had no trouble and in fact found ourselves dancing with a community marching band one day. It's a cute house and clearly old, but redone to satisfactory standards. It's obviously an investment property made solely for AirBnB parties and not a lived in home...and that is obvious.
For our party, a bachelor party, we didn't need much beyond the beds and some AC. It was fine without bells and whistles, as expected given the lower costs than other homes in town.
We did have several problems throughout our stay though preventing a better rating.
Right off, the shelving units in the bathroom had fallen to the ground and towels were strewn about before we had arrived. We expected 10 beds given the description. While there WERE 10 beds, we were not expecting the 10th bed to be a fold out sofa in the living room. That probably could be noted better. More importantly, we did not have any hot water for two days and the kitchen sink backed up due to crawfish shells form a previous AirBnB visitor. There also was a leak in the roof leading to dripping water in the master bedroom throughout our stay. Lastly, the dishwasher worked only on occasion and was very finicky.
To the host's credit, they were responsive and acted within a reasonable time frame to try and fix much of the issues noted. They also offered a small refund to help offset the problems.
Unfortunately, given the amount of issues in the home I had to mark it down a couple stars.
Bottom line: Good location, nice hosts, decent price. Nice enough home, yet old and needs some work.
