We used this place as a base for a birthday trip to New Orleans and it worked out very well. The place, while uninviting from the outside, was very clean, spacious, and well furnished inside. It is a great deal for the number of beds, amount of space, proximity to Bourbon and French street areas, and cleanliness.

Please note that the immediate area around the house will probably intimidate some guests. However, many of the problems around the house (mud, construction debris, trash, etc.) seem to be due to ongoing construction behind and across from the house. In actuality, the house is only a couple of blocks away from some very nice neighborhoods and the immediate neighbors appear to be a mix of working class folks and urban hipsters.

The front stairs are very steep, uneven, and in poor repair. We found them to be hazardous when carrying luggage so be careful.
