I had a lovely stay in New Orleans. The communication and house were great. For the dog owners, there isn’t currently a fenced in backyard as the gate was understandably taken out by the hurricane, not sure when they’re planning on fixing it, but keep in mind you’ll still need to leash the fur babies. The back door is also tough to open for a scrawny person like me. With that said my scrawny self and compact pooch were able to get out the back door. An average size person and a big dog probably couldn’t. So you may need to walk the fur babies. This leads to the next potential issue. After I was in the place for about 20mins, there were about 20 gun shots (roughly one pop for every minute in the place). Two people were shot and one person was killed about a 1/2 block away. I read other reviews where people said the area is sketchy, which I always take with a grain of salt. We all have different experiences with different things and different people, but figured I’d provide an actual example of why the place may not be in the greatest of neighborhoods. It put a bit of a damper on the first day as I wasn’t able to drive anywhere because my car was part of an ‘active crime scene.’ With that said the place isn’t toooo far from lots of things to do.
