Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the apt. The host was very good. Communication was excellent and timely. We were arriving shortly after hurricane Zeta had passed through and the apt had lost power during the storm. The host reached out to us before our travel begun offering a full refund if desired. So, we knew before departing that the apt had lost power but hoped power would be restored before arrival and had back up plans with friends if that were not the case.
We were kept very well informed of the situation on the ground and were fortunate that power did return a few hours after arrival in New Orleans and were able to check in close to our expected time. Check in was easy and the apt was comfortable and well appointed.
The location had both positive and negative aspects to it. The positives were being on the St. Charles Streetcar route for easy travel Uptown or to the French Quarter and there were a small number of restaurants with outside seating within easy walking distance. The negative was the very close proximity of the elevated Pontchartrain highway which is only about 100-200 feet away. This created considerable traffic noise. There is a small homeless encampment diagonally across from the apt under the elevated highway. This made my partner uncomfortable, but I should say that we never experienced any problems. But on her own she would have been uncomfortable staying there.
