The house was in a great section of town and not far away from the French Quarter. The host was kind enough to come by and make sure all the pilot lights were still lit after gas work had been done and was so apologetic about the interruption. Absolutely plan to stay again
The room was clean, conveniently located, spacious, well-equipped, and overall a good place to stay. The only issue we had was very low water pressure in the shower.
Good location and clean. Although listed as non-smoking the smell of cigarette smoke was evident. The shower needs repair almost zero flow from the shower head, note on the fridge said giggle this and pull that but none of that actually worked.
Good location but likely you need more than average knowledge of New Orleans (i.e. transportation options) to take full advantage. Be sure to get a Jazzy Pass for streetcars and buses.
We had no heat first couple days. Property Manager told us there was heat but there were no instructions on how to get the heat. We found a space heater, which wasn't working at its best & can't leave them on all nite. Finally manager explained the heat comes thru the a.c. with the remote. BUT he lied about the heat coming from the a.c. by the futon, it did not. We both got very sick & are still trying to recover. Floors were soooo dirty. We deserve at least a partial refund. He wasn't easy to get hold of. Could not leave a msg on his phone. It would say "this phone has no voice mail box". We would just have to wait until he decided to call us back. Then I started texting him, which was easier. I wanted to talk to him for him to hear that I had laryngitis, sore throat, ear ache. Heat should have been turned on before we got there on Tuesday as the temperature was in the 50's. Wednesday, came home from swamp tour to another day of cold house. He finally called that nite & explained a little better about the heat but I feel I had to drag the words out of him. No heat in room with futon where my friend slept.We missed out on the Plantation Tour because we were sick. We're out each $64.00 for that tour.

The VRBO review system is very helpful nearly all the time, but unfortunately there are some cases such as this one where guests fictitiously embellish stories out of personal frustration. Janis stayed here 7 nights, and the temperature was in the 70s when she arrived. In fact for a large majority of her stay the temperature was nearly perfect. There were however 2 nights where it got a little cooler, and the temperature got into the 50s. Like many prior guests have done, Janis could have simply changed the A/C setting to heat in the bedroom and utilized the space heater if needed in whichever other room she wanted. I assumed, like plenty prior guests who have stayed in even colder temperatures (though it rarely is cold in NOLA), that she either would turn the heat on herself or ask me how if she wasn't able to on her own (no guest has ever not been able to simply change the A/C setting to heat mode). I didn't hear from Janis the first of the 2 chilly nights, so I assumed everything was fine. The next day however I heard from her and she asked about the heating situation. I explained exactly how to turn the heat on in the bedroom and that I even put a space heater in the unit if necessary. She told me she had a sore throat, blaming it on the chilliness, which I told her I was very sorry about, but I was under the assumption she knew how to simply change the A/C setting to heat since I had not heard otherwise that first night or possibly utilize the extra blankets in the unit. Also, this is the first I'm hearing of the floors being "dirty". I can assure you that while yes the floors are old in a couple of the rooms, they are very clean for every guest. It is very unfortunate that she felt under the weather, but that in no way should result in giving a 1 star review. I had no way of knowing Janis couldn't simply change modes on the A/C to heat for the couple of chilly nights and would have thought she'd simply ask as soon as she wanted it on. Hopefully this user error doesn't deter any future guests as the A/C, with a remote provided, is very easy to operate.
Truly enjoyed the authenticity of this historic property and its location. Loved the roominess of the house. We could walk everywhere or take the St. Charles streetcar to where we wanted to be. A quiet neighborhood yet so convenient to everything.
We had a wonderful stay at Bailey’s property. The listing and pictures are accurate - but the pictures don’t quite show how cute this shotgun house is! Great location that is convenient to downtown New Orleans and other areas and made exploring the city so easy. Bailey was extremely communicative and very helpful with any questions we had. We had plenty of towels and blankets, which was so nice to have. (I’ve stayed at other properties that had one towel per person.) The only minor issue we had was a TV across the street that was extremely bright and would illuminate the bedroom through the transom window above the front door until the middle of the night. That said, our stay was absolutely great and I would absolutely recommend Bailey’s property to anyone visiting New Orleans - and I look forward to rebooking this property when I visit New Orleans again.
I have never been steered wrong by customer reviews on Vrbo but this trip was an exception. This home is centrally located as reported in the review and very close to everything. We got in at 11 at night after a long day of flying. In the dark it looked to be an extremely sketchy looking neighborhood. In the light of day the house next store is totally dilapidated and vacant. The window air conditioning unit clicks on and off every 10 to 15 seconds incredibly loudly and is right across from the bed. This made sleep nearly impossible. Along with the neighbors alarm going off for over 3 hours. Overall, the house was fairly tidy but the tub was incredibly dirty. Also, the rug in front of the bed was very dirty. There isn't a bed skirt or sheet on the box springs which was strange. The lock on the front door just spun around in circles so it took several tries to get it locked successfully. We hadn't messed with it so it appeared it may have been unlocked when we arrived. The lock on the backdoor was also tricky. The screen door also didn't shut so during some wind it was blowing back and forth. We were scheduled to stay 5 nights and we checked into a hotel (adding $1800 to our trip cost) after 2 nights of zero sleep. We did not reach out to the host as we didn't feel most of these issues could be taken care of in the time of our stay and some of the things concerning us were out of their control. The communication we did have with the host was fine. If you are looking for a roof over your head and to be close to everything this location does satisfy those needs but if you're looking for a comfortable stay this may not be the one.

It took 3 years across multiple platforms and listings, but I have finally received an inaccurate review.
It is the furthest thing from an extremely sketchy looking neighborhood. It is one of the safer neighborhoods in the entire city with beautiful homes all around. The house next door is currently under renovation, but this has never been an issue with any previous guests. Yes, the home does have window A/C units, but that info is in the listing and it makes as much noise as any other window unit you'd find in the city. My cleaning people always do an amazing job, and I can say with confidence that the tub nor the rug in front of the bed were dirty. No guest has ever commented on anything being dirty, and I go in myself between guests and nothing was dirty. The front door automatically locks without messing with the inside lock, and I know the place was locked when you arrived. There is no screen door but instead an iron gate and it does not blow back and forth. It's either all the way open or closed. This historic home is over 100 years old, but the unit is exactly as the pictures show and description details, and I've received nothing but positive reviews in the past on multiple platforms.
For future reference, please think before typing since public reviews do have a strong impact on potential future bookings, and completely inaccurate information such as what you detailed is very harmful and frankly unethical.

Liked: Communication
Communication is good. Very close to St. Charles, and a 25 min. walk to the CBD and Canal St. Nice park nearby. The house is not deep cleaned, so our feet were black after walking barefoot on the floor, even though we saw the cleaners mop it. They just don't push hard to get the dirt that is layered on, and they don't get under the bed, which is really noticeable since there is no dust ruffle. Window unit has 'need cleaning' light on. No dishwasher, one knife, shower drains well, skillets are teflon and scratched. Kitchen sink drips. Couch is comfy. Need 2 more pillow cases--we put pillows in our tshirts.
We were SO relieved to conclude our stay in New Orleans at this lovely property - very quiet and beautiful neighborhood that is well connected to the city centre, heaps of space, clean and comfortable. Bailey's (host) was extremely responsive and accommodating- even going so far as to bring us an extra heater during a recent cold snap. Couldn't ask for more and highly recommend! ❤
We stayed three nights in New Orleans as part of our 3.5 week road trip across the US and back. This house was adorable- shabby chic. We were very comfy. We walked to the National WW2 Museum, to the Lafayette Cemeteries (1 and 2), to the French Quarter and Bourbon St. It took about 1/2 to 3/4 hour each way- easy. Our son, poor guy, had to stay in the house doing freshman college course enrollment and orientation for 2 days. He was v comfortable at the house, while Dad and Mom went off exploring. Lovely cafes and bakeries very close. We got an Amazon Prime grocery delivery to the house from Whole Foods one day. We cooked lots of food in the sweet kitchen. Big fridge, great stove, lots of hot water, pots and pans, cutlery, crockery- a really well equipped kitchen. Coffee and teas provided (though we had our own). Majillions of towels. It was lovely and clean and welcoming. The test? We were all v happy to walk around barefoot. Quiet at night, too. Only complaint- teeny one- the transom window above the front door is uncovered (quite rightly) to let in light. But at night the house opposite had a huuuuge TV visible through the second floor window. The light was so bright we could watch their TV while lying in bed, and it illuminated the whole room after we turned out the lights. I don't know the solution... Maybe a tiny curtain across the transom? We had great communication with Bailey. The house was super well located. We came with two cars and parked them outside the house (we arrived at midnight) and just left them there all three days. We are most definitely going to be back to stay in the same house. And this time, maybe our boy will get to see more of the city!
I stayed a full week and enjoyed Bailey's place. So convenient and with no vehicle could walk everywhere I needed to go. Great restaurants and attractions and parks.
This was a great stay. Everything I needed. The home was filled with thoughtful touches, was clean, safe and well located. Host was very easy to communicate with. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
This house is located super close to Bourbon Street and the French Quarter - about 6 minutes by car. Parking out front was easy, free, and always available. The Seed restaurant just two doors up on the corner is delicious, and I’m not vegetarian!
Great experience. Great location and the house was perfect for my husband and I. Clean and had everything you needed. I would definitely stay here again! Thank you!
The place was exactly as advertised and perfect for our long weekend in New Orleans. Owner was extremely responsive and we could not have asked for better. Highly recommend.
We’ve always stayed in the French Quarter during previous visits to NOLA. This location was perfect and gave us a totally different experience. Easy walk to the French Quarter, but also had fun window shopping and brunching and lunching on Magazine.
This property was close to everything we wanted to see and do during our stay in New Orleans. It's close to Magazine St., the Garden District, the French Quarter and Bourbon Street. There's nearby streetcar stations and Uber rides were fairly cheap, too! The house was cute and had everything we needed! We also greatly appreciated the extra comforter because we happened to visit NOLA on an especially cold day. Definitely recommend this location :)
