I'll start with the positives. There were beds, hot water and it's about a 20 minute walk from the French quarter. The host has great response time and answered all of my questions.
THE $250 CLEANING FEE IS A JOKE.
The house was VERY dirty and not what I thought I paid for at all according to pictures. There is water damage and black MOLD by all of the air vents. There is rat feces all throughout the house, primarily in the kitchen cabinets where the 2 pans for cooking were. There were rat feces under our bed in the very back room and there a dropping on our bed like it had blown out of the vent. My boyfriends mother saw roaches run when we turned the kitchen lights on. The bathroom rug has never seen a washer. Our lighting was somewhat faulty the first 3 days until we just left the bathroom lights on because they would take about 5 to turn on after flipping the switch. There were 2 trashbags provided for the entire week. The blinds were coated in dust like they were never cleaned. The "outside furniture" was 2 fabric lawn chairs that were full of dirty water that had mosquito eggs in them. The back yard was a mess with broken glass and shells everywhere. What I'm most angry about is WE as the customers had to sweep the entire house and clean up because we kept coating our feet in dirt and crumbs. This was not my house and this was supposed to be my vacation. Im still angry and embarrassed that I brought my boyfriends family here. Even if there was no cleaning fee, this place was worth $50 a night no more. Please don't let pictures deceive you for a lower price.
