The following few paragraphs is my comprehensive experience with the man, the myth, the legend, Mr. Dag & his ‘Starboard on the River’ duplex.
My first impression of Mr. Dag was just over a month ago, when I made my decision to stay at his place during mardigras. After reserving, I took a look at Mr. Dag’s profile and noticed he had a second listing, with photos that were what seemed to be an exact mirror of the listing I was staying at. My first thought was that he was attempting to scam me by listing fake properties. I messaged him and asked if he may have made a duplicate property— but no. The man, the myth, the legend himself decided that for his personal pleasure, he was going to do his absolute best to make an exact mirror on each side of his duplex (down to the books on the table). This right here ladies and gentlemen, made me realize Mr Dag was a man who enjoys good memes.
The location is great- Mr Dag worked hard to ensure we had a place to park (considering the mardigras parades were very close).
Moving on to the actual home, Mr Dag has installed a top of the line security system, with keyless entry to the door. He also has left an info sheet with the number for 911, & the closest address for BOTH an ER & Urgent Care facility (clearly an OG in NOLA).
Moving on to the bathroom, Mr Dag carefully selected Cocoanut infused Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash, & Lotion for maximum smelling consistency. There’s all kinds of towels and wash rags. Plus, theres a toilet with one of those “eco” buttons.
Moving onto the kitchen, there’s more glassware in this place than I have in my own home. Assorted drinks in the fridge (I’ll let you know later if they cost extra). Coffeemaker, with high-tier coffee in the freezer (I tried it- it’s great). An ice cube tray in the shape of pellets. This man really did go the extra mile.
Finally, the bedroom! There are enough pillows on that thing to comfortably sleep half of Louisiana. Very comfortable though. In the closet you can find: Hundreds of coat hangers, extra blankets, and MORE pillows! There’s a white-noise maker in the bedroom (it can get loud outside).
The artwork throughout the house is impeccable. He even has one picture with a pug sniffing a crab (with an artistic orientation). There’s also a piece of glassware on the coffee table that has a ruler painted on it (don’t try to measure anything with it! It’s not to scale).
Overall, if my job ever relocates me to NOLA, I’m gonna try to kick it with the man, the myth, the legend himself, Mr. Dag.
