Jeremy’s Airbnb offered a space to lay our heads after walking around the city, and a place to put our luggage; other than that, I would probably not stay in this Airbnb again. Upon arrival at scheduled check in time I was told it would be another 30 minutes before the apartment would be ready. After waiting 30 minutes, I walked into my room to find skittles on the carpet, an uncleaned tub with dirt/grime on the bottom of it, a dirty toilet with stains along the rim and bowl, dust pile accumulation on the rug, stained carpets in the bedroom, crumbs on the table, and some kind of hardened substance on the couch. I reached out to the front desk of the Catahoula Inn where we checked into the Airbnb and told them my concerns. They apologized and had the cleaners return to finish cleaning the apartment. Another 20-30 minutes went by and I was contacted that my unit was finally ready. I returned to the unit to find that only the toilet had been cleaned and that was it. I took matters into my own hands and vacuumed the floor myself to make it more accommodating.
The location is far enough from the rowdiness of Bourbon Street to have peace and quiet but if there is any kind of conversation going on outside of the apartment be prepared to hear the entire thing. Music from across the street could be heard until about 1130pm, which wasn’t a huge inconvenience but if you’re looking for complete silence you had better think again. The apartment is about a 5 minute drive to the French Quarter or about a 15 minute walk to experience night life in all its forms.
All in all the apartment and it’s location suited it’s purpose as a place to lay my head and a place to store my luggage. I think the lack of cleanliness left a sour taste in my mouth that I could not shake for my stay. The front desk staff was very nice however, and tried their best to amend the problem when asked.
I don’t think I will rebook this Airbnb for future trips to Louisiana.
