You get what you pay for!
I’ll start with the good: Patti was kind and responsive, and the unit looked as advertised - affordable, spacious, and comfortable. Good WiFi, full kitchen with dishes, washer and dryer in unit, good hot shower, comparably quiet neighborhood (though near a popular busking corner), easy to find close parking, conveniently located near some local haunts and equally spaced from all of the city, making it easy to plan a trip for folks who are happy to drive.
Inconvenient for less seasoned visitors (not me, but I took my New Orleans newbie’s observations to heart): not within quick walking distance to any of the major attractions, so if not driving, have a generous Lyft budget - it’s often $20 to/from this location/the quarter or CBD - or prepare to walk half an hour before you get to Magazine St or 20 minutes to any of the trolleys to take you the rest of the way. The closest grocery/toiletry options are Walgreens and CVS next door and a Rouse’s five blocks away, all of which are overpriced. If you are traveling with a group, note that the walls are sound-transparent.
Points of concern: upon arrival, we tried to turn lights on to no avail - the light fixture on the fan in the living room was fully broken. There was no detergent available, so it was apparent that our ‘freshly washed’ bedding and towels were rinsed with fabric softener and replaced. Hand soap was refilled with *water* and no soap in unit, bought one and left it for the next. Shower left covered in stranger’s hair. Sheets and walls stained, kitchen was not wiped down, cabinets were full of old, opened food and hygiene products, and both the dishwasher and cabinets had dirty dishes left in them.
That said, 4/5 for being reasonably priced at $70/night when other accommodations were twice the price!
