The location is great. The room is very large. The check-in process is great. The manager was very interactive. The A/C works well.
Unfortunately, the pictures are of a better time in this rental. The room has fallen into disrepair. There is no bar like in the pictures. There is no divider. The wardrobe is full of extra bedding for all of your party friends. The beds/mattresses/bedding/linens need to be updated. The couch/futon is pretty gross and in complete disrepair. The bathroom sink did not drain.
The kitchen is basically a fridge (no ice-maker), microwave, and a good supply of glasses and silverware.
It is very noisy in the room. You will hear if anybody is staying in any room above or below yours. You will enjoy hearing conversations on the street below you. Cars, sirens, drunk people will all be heard from your room.
This is a great party rental near the french quarter. Bring booze and stage your pre-partying from a huge room near the french quarter. From the sounds of it, that is what is happening in most of the other rooms in this building. Just know this isn't a 4.9 room. It's a 4.9 location.
We had an amazing time. It's New Orleans. Embrace the noise and have fun.
