We really love the location of this apartment, along with the amazing outdoor space. It's walking distance to the French Quarter, easy access to public transportation, and easy for Uber to find. The area is quiet at night, which is nice after a long day of sightseeing and evenings in New Orleans! For the most part, the building is secure. There is a grocery store 2 blocks away, which is quite convenient.
However, there are a few things that would prevent me from giving this property a 5 star rating:
I wouldn't call this a 'luxury' apartment. The furniture doesn't match what is shown in the listing. The living room furniture is pretty beat up, with the exception of the sleeper sofa (which we didn't use)
The dishwasher was full of dirty dishes when we arrived. Fortunately, there was dishwasher detergent so I could run the dishwasher.
There is no ironing board to go with the iron. The iron doesn't work anyway. (We were in New Orleans for a destination wedding weekend)
There are no soap or shampoo dispensers in the showers. That part of the info should be changed. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner, rather than depending on what is provided.
My biggest issue was the security of the floor where we were staying. On 2 of the 4 nights of our stay, there were other people in the outdoor space. The first night we were there, we had been out on the deck having champagne before going out to dinner. The next morning, I found an empty beer can and cigarette butts while enjoying my morning coffee outside.
The next evening we were getting ready for a wedding. While our friends were getting dressed, there were 2 men out on on the terrace, walking around. They left a few minutes later. The room where conferences are held (on occasion) had the door propped open using the deadbolt. We closed and locked the door. I notified the host, but he didn't seem to be too concerned.
Overall, our stay was nice, but I think that this was a bit overpriced, and definitely what I would consider 'luxury'.
