We enjoyed our stay at the Bohemian Chic rental.
PROS:
Aesthetic & Design:
The place had an open concept flow in the dining room and bedroom and the second room is the living room converted into a bedroom with a pull out couch. My bf was amazed at the high ceilings of the bathroom. The apartment certainly has an old-world charm with modern amenities, which is reflected in the design and furnishings. I adored the ceiling medallions, bedroom french armoire, and the tiles used in the bathroom. In fact, I actually found the place to look even better in real life than the pictures, which is quite impressive to do.
Spacious:
The stay is spacious, ideal for a party of 2 to 3. It worked well for us, as we each wanted to sleep separately and get ready in separate bathrooms. Infinitely a better option of choosing this spacious apartment over a small dingy hotel room that would have cost us about the same price.
Location:
This was our first time visiting NOLA, and I did not want to be in the middle of the chaos of the French quarter/bourbon street. This was located very conveniently next to magazine street to walk and explore and having Mojo coffee house steps away from our building was a great perk to grab morning coffee.
Hospitality:
It was a treat to meet the property manager - Glenn. He went above and beyond to help accommodate my luggage storage as I had a later flight in the evening. It was great chatting with him to learn more about the history of the building and renovations - I learned the apartment had original hardware flooring! Which is wow! (from the 1800s!)
CONS:
This is not really a con per se - I would just recommend to bring a pair of flip flops or slippers. Because the place is filled with cute charm with original flooring, there are parts of the floors that are chipped with gaps in some areas and the glass floor tiles in the kitchen are cracked. I was concerned about stubbing my toe in case I needed to get up in the middle of the night, so I solved this by purchasing a pair of flip flops to wear only in the apartment.
Noise:
In the living room, there is a constant sound that we heard when sleeping – might be the fridge or the light. This became only noticeable when going to sleep, we resolved this by putting on some white noise sleep music.
Overall, this is an incredible place to stay at, I would highly recommend this to my friends and family visiting NOLA to consider staying here.
