Having lived in New Orleans and visited/stayed numerous times all over the city, I feel I’m qualified to offer a neutral but thorough review. Best features of this room are the location, balcony, the small but beautiful shared courtyard, and the ease of check-in and check-out.
The location was great. #7 is a lower quarter 2nd floor residence with a bathroom, efficiency kitchen (sink/mini-fridge/microwave) and a living room with a pullout and flatscreen tvs in both the living room and small bedroom with a queen bed. The ceilings are high, there’s a wonderful balcony that has railing set up to separate it from your neighbors and take in views of the street below.
This is the quarter so there will be some street noise as well as noise from the city and your neighbors. If you’re used to city life then the noise won’t be a problem.
Overall the room was clean but showed a bit of wear and there were some minor cosmetic repairs that the owners might want to pursue but it probably won’t affect your stay. An electric floor heater was provided and that helped warm the bedroom. The wall unit ac did not work but didn’t need it. That would be important if I visited during the warmer more humid months.
While I never met the host(standard Airbnb), they were kind and responsive through the app. I’d probably stay here again and hope that the owners would address the cosmetic issues. You will find this in many of the rentals at this price point on Airbnb and even at some hotels.
I’d recommend this apartment to visitors in the cooler months and once the ac is repaired, in the warmer months as well. Can’t beat the location and definitely a French Quarter experience with all the local charm.
