Stayed for a week at Asia’s place. Really loved the location. 5 minute walk to Frenchmen St. where we were able to go to different Jazz clubs every night without worry of walking too far or waiting on an Uber. Main French Quarter area is about 15 minute walk and was still great. Had a great time in NOLA. Bed super comfy, really cold AC, and pretty home like feel.
Main cons were we had a problem arise the first night at 5 am and tried to contact the host, the number to contact is for the host’s mother. I was aware they coordinated together, but we didn’t receive a response till 10 am that morning after the mom had relayed the message to Asia. If they coordinate together then it would make sense that after I left a voicemail the mother should have been able to call me back perhaps. Pictures are slightly misleading. Backyard does not look the same as the photos. One thing to add is there is a TV, but all that is available is public television. We stayed a week and 3 nights we decided not to stay out late and didn’t have anything to do besides be on our phone. Even having a basic DVD player or updating the TV would be sufficient.
**not a con or knock at the host! Be prepared to have to pay for parking sometimes. There are 3 spaces available in front of the stay, but during busy times (i.e. Friday-Sunday, holidays, etc) they may get full. There is pay to park right across so it’s no biggie, but for 24 hours it’s $25. The host does explain this when you book.
