I am a host myself and looked at reviews before renting. The place exceeded my expectations. I think some people expect a sterile hotel environment. Please ignore the negative reviews. Geoffrey offers a homier lived-in feel, but the place is very clean, comfortable, and welcoming.
The location is walking distance (if you like to walk) to the French Quarter as well as many great restaurants, ranging from great little hole-in-the-wall to gourmet. When we decided to Uber or Lyft rather than walk, our rides appeared instantly. There's cute little convenience store a half block away for cold beverages. They even have La Croix.
This was a guys' trip. I went with my two sons. They shared the room with two twin beds, and I slept on the queen. I had to pass through their room to get to mine, which was fine. Just be aware when booking.
In any case, I'm happy to give an enthusiastic 5-star rating. Thanks Geoff!
