Communication with this host was pretty much nonexistent prior to arriving; I was skeptical that it might be some sort of a scam, because he never once replied to any of my emails prior to check in (which was a lockbox code), even though, I sent him several. It's location/price was pretty good, about 15 min walk to edge of French Quarter, neighborhood pretty quiet. However, there were some problems with some amenities, and we mentioned a few to him, but since we only stayed 3 nights, we didn't fret: No HOT WATER, so be prepared to take a less than luke warm shower; several plugs in kitchen didn't work; no TV cable hooked up, TV was present, but we couldn't watch it; the ceiling fan in living room, when running, was so wobbly, we had to shut it off, because we were afraid that it was going to fall; coffee pot was so disgusting, in fact, it had the coffee grounds from the previous guest still in it. Once again, I still think it wasn't a bad deal for the cost, but don't plan on hotel accomodations here.
