Overview of french quarter ('vieux carre'):

The french quarter, also known as the vieux carré, is the oldest neighborhood in the city of new orleans. When new orleans (la nouvelle-orléans in french) was founded in 1718 by jean-baptiste le moyne de bienville, the city was originally centered on the french quarter, or the vieux carré ('old square' in french) as it was known then. While the area is still referred to as the vieux carré by some, it is more commonly known as the french quarter today, or simply 'the quarter.' the district as a whole is a national historic landmark, and contains numerous individual historic buildings. It was affected relatively lightly by hurricane Katrina in 2005, as compared to other areas of the city and the greater region. Near Louis Armstrong New Orleans international airport, Amtrak station, bar/pub.

Why Leasing Agent chose New Orleans

LOCATION! I can't say it enough. This place is in the heart of all the action. You'll love it.

Unlike most French Quarter apartments, the layout of this one is nice and open. The kitchen opens up to the living space and feels open and airy. The bedrooms are independently accessible as well as the bathrooms.

What makes this apartment unique

On a good day, you'll watch a parade pass by, a brass band getting down or a second-line stroll by. At a bare minimum, you'll enjoy street performers entertaining and playing music all around.

This property features an incredible plush COURTYARD, which is great for entertaining or simply relaxing. Nice tables and chairs for everyone to enjoy.

BBQ pits and ice chests for communal use.

Crawfish boiling equipment available on request.

Bike rack in the rear.

This property has a quaint STAGE/ALTER set up in the rear courtyard.

Have a special occasion? This place is perfect to celebrate.

I also am willing to stock your fridge/bar with items of your choosing, for a small fee.

We stayed here with a group of nine guys 26-33 in the two interior apartments. I loved it - definitely not your normal place to stay but for those not too familiar with New Orleans, it's smack down in the middle of the best parts of the French Quarter. The owner is great, the place has wonderful character, no negatives here!

Luxury and charm

Just got back from staying in this property, and all I can say is--WOW! It totally surpassed all of my expectations. Located on one of the oldest blocks in NOLA (I think), this place boasted the perfect blend of luxurious comfort and local charm. The common room is absolutely gorgeous and clean, the balcony's a little bit scary but offers a great view of the French Quarter, and the walls were adorned with New Orleans-style wood carvings that I suspect were made by the building manager, who runs an awesome little workshop and store downstairs.

On the subject, both the building manager and the owner treated us extremely well. When setting up the stay, the owner responded to me promptly and with exactly what I needed at all times, even months before our actual reservation. Upon arrival we met the building manager, an extremely nice, laid-back guy who went out of his way to make sure our stay was enjoyable. Whenever I had a request or question, I just called the building manager on his cell, and he was always willing to help. Both guys were accommodating, friendly and professional.

In terms of location, you could NOT do better. The property splits the uprights between Frenchmen and Bourbon St, and is a few blocks from Cafe Du Monde, Jackson Square and the water. Anywhere you'd want to go in French Quarter is less than a 10 minute walk away. If I had to sum the place up in one line, it would be this: This property had a universal comfort you would hope to find anywhere, but its location and style were distinctly and wonderfully characteristic of the classic New Orleans experience.

We stayed at this property for 8 nights. The first night we arrived we had a strong sewer smell. The owners has 2 guys that take care of the place for him and they just kept spraying air freshner. Emailed owner but never came to meet us. the smell went away after about 5 days really bad in the morning when you used the showers. On the 2nd night was when we thought there were mice in the closet. I asked one of the guys if they had a mouse problem he said no but we saw a mouse the day we checked in run threw the store below where you check in,no big deal old buildings a few mice won't hurt you. The 3rd night about 4:30am just fell asleep after a night out we thought our dog was chewing a bone by our bed that 's how loud it was and then discovered it was rats and not mice this went on every night. I emailed the landlord and basicly he said he can't control what his neighbours do. They are brick exteriors the rats were in his walls not the neighbours. He said he works full time and I said we do to, to pay this for 8 nights. He said he was getting a plumber in no signs of one and then he said he was getting an exterminator no signs. We had to put a load of dishes in the dishwasher because so many of the dishes were dirty, dirty tea towels and cutlery in the draw, the railing going down the stairs was missing some of the wood between the spindles and full of dirt. The fridge and freezer weren't wiped out. I could go on and on about the half done cleaning job, Jeff(the Owner) said when I was booking this he hired a professional cleaner so that's why he charges for cleaning. We had 5people staying there but one couple came after 3 nights because they had a family emergency he never gave has any break even for all the other problems. On our 6th night it was so bad at 4am the chewing we were all up my husband went next door to one of the guys that takes care of the place and said do you here that he said oh I thought that was water running. I emailed Jeff and said we wanted our deposit back and the last 2 nights so we can go stay somewhere else. His only response was the exterminator would be there didn't happen. I sent him an email he's never responded. We have traveled all over the world and stayed in the jungle and all kinds of places and have never been treated so bad.The last night I was sitting on the couch listening to the rats behind the stove We met some locals while we were there and they have places on vrbo and were not happy how we treated
