The floor plan to this place is interesting since I've never seen one set up like this but nonetheless it worked out comfortably with 7 guests. The neighborhood is a little run down and a couple of Uber drivers told us that it's not in the best neighborhoods in NOLA but it's literally a 8 min Uber drive to the French Quarter where we spent the majority of the time for a 4 day weekend. We did walk to the grocery store and went to a neighborhood restaurant (about 5 blocks) during the day and I felt safe mainly because I grew up in a similar neighborhood but I did have a couple of my friends express concerns about not feeling safe walking in this neighborhood. As for communication with the host, he's responsive and provided instructions a week before. The door has a keypad, easy to use, but couldn't figure out how to change the code from a 10 digit number to a 4 digit number regardless it worked out using a 10 digit code each time. As for the cleanliness of the place, I was pretty disappointed to have found 3 very large dead cockroaches downstairs and dead spiders in the bath tubs, and the floor upstairs was very dusty, dried leaves on the floor in the upstair bathroom, and the roll away bed had a huge stain on the bed sheet. The closet has a couple of air mattresses, and the blankets & sheets tossed at the top (not folded) so it made me think they were used and not washed. Also, we left with many bite marks around our ankles so we were thinking maybe fleas hopefully not bed bugs. This place seemed like it was probably fumigated recently given the dead insects but not done well enough if we left with bug bites. Overall, it was a decent location, big enough for a big group but could improve on the cleanliness and have extra clean bedsheets.
