Very nice house that is accurately described. Great location away from, but close enough, to the French Quarters and Marigny for those not wanting to stay directly in the nightlife that Nola brings. Easily accessible to ride shares and walking distance to a few restaurants/stores.
Pros:
Beautiful artwork. Amenities and appliances are up to date. Spacious. Nice antique furniture to bring out the culture. Patio/gated backyard that includes parking is a bonus.
Cons:
- House sits on the corner of the street where there's a stop sign so people tend to loiter and can get loud in early morning / late night.
- Fourth bedroom is small and located inside the third bedroom (so you have to cross over inside to access) with a low ceiling.
- The entry/exit door keypad takes a few attempts to lock/unlock because the knob is loose.
- Sound travels well both inside and from unit next door
RODENTS:
- Unfortunately during our stay, from our very first night to our last, we had to deal with mice. We immediately informed the host who was responsive but not very helpful. Long story short, only measure that was taken was setting up traps around the house. Due to the inconvenience throughout our stay, I tried to negotiate a partial refund for compensation and the host was unbothered, unwilling, and had a lack of understanding (only focused on cancellation policy). I then had to reach out to Airbnb who instantly took matters seriously. I submitted videos and they fortunately offered me a refund back more than what was expected.
