Booking: I booked with ease. Our return flight didn’t leave until 6pm so I reached out to the host in advance really early around 7am to see if he would be mind if we left our luggage in the space until it was closer to the time in which we would have left. William offered a late checkout immediately. His communication was prompt and he was very kind.
Cleanliness: This property has to have THEE most towels and washcloths available that I have ever seen. It was marvelous. Colored wash cloths and white ones. There were also extra hand towels and extra bath mats as the one sitting out got wet after a few showers. It’s an older home and it shows in the carpet. The tile floors also had a bit of dust. I do recommend shower shoes to walk around in. I love how there was extra detergent and dryer sheets for the laundry facilities. The shower was nice and I like how there was a collection of shampoos, conditioners and shower gels that I assume were from previous stays. I appreciate the opportunity to prevent something from unnecessarily going into the landfill, also I’m sure it helps those who may forget these items.
Accuracy: The listing was extremely accurate. It very easily and comfortably accommodated our party of 5 with ample room for a few more. There was an air conditioning unit and a heater in every room. The master bedroom has a different type of heater that I’ve never used before and the instructions were right next to it. These items were perfect for climate control and made for a very comfortable stay. Plenty of coffee and tea were on hand along with a Keurig for brewing. Good amount of pots and dishes should you decide to dine in.
Check-in: Check-in was simple and straightforward. Code was simple enough to remember but could not be easily guessed. Door automatically locks after code is entered unless you were to turn the deadbolt on the other side which is clearly marked not to do so. I felt that my belongings were safe inside the home.
Communication: Host called the morning of our reservation to welcome us in and to make sure we had his personal number in the event of any mishaps. He was available immediately by call and text to answer all questions.
Location: Pretty close to the French Quarter. Could have been a 25 minute walk or a 10 minute Uber ride. Has a nice collection of surrounding bars and a few eateries within walking distance.
Honorable mentions: Lots of interesting and fun artwork and pieces inside. Property is also smoke-friendly and the host was very accommodating in referring us to the best shops nearby for what was wanted. There’s even an electric scooter available for use!
I would totally stay again and refer anyone visiting to do the same. This property is the perfect party house and has a great homely feel to it.
