Very quiet neighborhood! When we first arrived there wa a sewer smell where the washer is, but went to the store and got air fresheners for small spaces the smell went away. We were only 9 miles from Southern University of New Orleans ball field where the tournament was held, very easy travel to Bourbon Street and the French Quarters. Would be nice if there was a list of restaurants that the local recommend and thing to do. Winn Dixie is right around the block if need something. Would definitely stay there again. Larry was very easy to get in contacted with.
Came for Mardi Gras/50th birthday and the communication was great with the owner. What I would recommend is updating your television so streaming services can be used. Also the lights/fans were not all operable. It would have been great to have a tv in the bedroom as well. Overall it was clean and convenient to the Mardi Gras festivities. 👍

Very dirty
I had only wonderful experiences in the past with VRBO, except this one which was a very bad one as the place was very dirty (stairs carpet, stairs handrails, bathtub, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, A/C grid, etc,)
Upon arrival there was no Internet, no toiletries and no starting detergent/softener and the light in the dining room did not function for the whole duration.
I would have loved to be able to add some pictures to support my review.
Other than that, the place would be nice if a little more maintenance and a lot of cleaning would be provided.
For the price and what we were looking for, it was perfect. We are paint contractors, and just wanted our own rooms, a kitchen, and ample space. It’s perfect for that. 2 king size beds. Linens and towels provided, all the essentials.
If you’re looking for updated or a place with “no issues” this is not the place. But, we were super delighted and happy. Thank you Larry
I would definitely recommend this property, but I needed to knock off a few stars to my rating because I question the property owner's aptitude to manage rentals.
I am hoping this was just a one-off mistake on his part, but it is weird and worth mentioning nonetheless. On November 2nd (our last full day - we were scheduled to depart on the 3rd), the property owner (Larry) knocked on the door, and essentially accused us of squatting, saying we were not supposed to be there and that our last day was supposedly yesterday (the 1st). I pulled up my VRBO reservation e-mail which clearly shows we depart on the 3rd, and there was no issue after that.
It was just a weird occurrence that I've never had happen before. Before someone were to do something like that - you think they would double check themselves by looking at the booking confirmation to confirm the actual date someone is to leave - and then cross reference that with what the actual date that day is (simply looking at the cellphone). So it is just something that to me was very unprofessional and easily preventable.
Then it just made me wonder if he had double booked the rental with other guests on overlapping days with us, which then made me worry (as we were out on excursions that afternoon) someone would come into the home and have access to our valuables. Luckily, this was not an issue.
Don't let this snippet dissuade you from booking, though. Good price for the NOLA area, amenities are outdated but do get the job done - but that is why you have a more affordable rate.
My family and I are natives of New Orleans who relocated after but had not been back in town for several years. Because I don't know the landscape of the city as well as I used to, it was helpful to have the posting say that the area was safe. We had a very pleasant stay that positioned us well for all of our activities. We were about 30 minutes from downtown, 30 minutes from Metairie, and about 15 minutes from the French quarter by car. All of the individuals in the neighborhood were very pleasant to us. The property was clean, the beds were comfortable and kitchen and washing machine and dryer were great amenities to have. We would definitely consider staying again.
15 mins from French quarter 20$ for an Uber to get there. Has upstairs bedrooms 2 bathrooms. Safe quiet neighborhood. Never even seen the property owner everything over the phone. Great price and quality. 5 stars Thank You Reccommend for sure
Larry was very good to work with. Good Mexican food nearby. Who could ask for more? Neighborhood seemed really safe and place was clean. Long driveway..Enough for two or three cars.Would recommend.
The property is in a nice neighborhood convenient to restaurants and grocery stores. Kitchen is fully equipped and the AC is cold. Property owner is very responsive.
Very easy process for first time. Excellent communication with host. Welcoming and enjoyed visit. Close to areas we wanted to visit. We will definitely use again.
Larry was a great host and very easy to communicate with. We had a longer stay almost 4 weeks and found the house set up nicely. We really appreciated the location (walking distance to Winn Dixie grocery store), the beds were comfy and having an extra half bath downstairs was nice! When we had issues with Internet Larry went above and beyond to replace the failing router and even upgraded speeds, which was great for working from home. Duplex could use an upgrade, but we understand that would make the rental price higher so we were very content.
The apartment is as advertised. Clean and very nice. The neighborhood couldn't have been safer. It is quite a drive to downtown and uber's were expensive but overall everything was great. Given the chance we would definitely stay here again.
Great size and clean. Away from the noise of New Orleans but not to far for traveling into the city. I had one issue while staying there and the manager was very quick to fix. Would def book again
