13 Reviews of Property 920740 in New Orleans, Louisiana

This apartment was very clean and well decorated. There was plenty of space for 6 of us to stay for three nights. It has 2 full bathrooms which is also a huge plus! Lenora was responsive and very helpful with the reservation and while we were there. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots and pans making it easy to have a nice meal at home. The nearby park was perfect for an afternoon walk and the house was very close to public transportation (I think it was the #16 bus that takes you right to the French Quarter). I would definitely recommend this apartment for a stay in New Orleans!

Great place, has everything you need and really enjoyed the location.

I love the Place. Great Location. I can't wait to Visit again. French quarters easy 5 min drive. Lots of parking lots to park in great food.
Area was so pretty. Had wine and chocolate waiting for us in the house when we checked in.
Thanks

The Claiborne is in a great location with adequate parking. Nice tiled floors. We were a party of 7 for which one slept on the couch quite comfortably. The bedding and towels were adequate. Fully stocked Kitchen which we really only used the coffee maker not wanting to cook on vacation! We did have to buy coffee filters. There was a nice welcome basket with small bottles of wine, jellies etc. We encountered a few problems (such as tub & shower issues, lack of hooks for towels and dirty living area rug) which we addressed with the owner and were assured these would be taken care of. I am certain this is true as our correspondence with them has been very polite and respectful. The owner also responds quickly when contacted.

We found the property to be as advertised and was enjoyable other than the loud noise overhead each night in the front bedroom off the kitchen. It seems the occupants, a big dog, and other rolling sounds and heavy objects dropped were a regular feature between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. each of the three nights we spent there.

I don't know how to start this review. I had such high hopes for my first experience with HomeAway. The decor was not to my taste, but I can't really complain about that because taste is a very personal thing.

We were a party of five...there was a couch that held 3 people...the rest of us had to sit in kitchen chairs. This was not a comfortable arrangement and we spent as little time in the apartment as possible. Each of the 2 bathrooms had a roll of toilet paper on the holder, but no extra rolls...3 of our 5 people were female. Needless to say, we had to go out and buy toilet paper. The freezer had an ice maker which did not make ice because there was no water supply to the freezer. There was 1 plastic ice tray in the freezer...totally inadequate for 5 people. There were no towel bars in the bathrooms to hang wet towels on...also no hooks in the bathrooms to hang up a robe or a pair of pajamas. The lighting in the master en suite bath was totally inadequate for putting on makeup or brushing hair. Both bathrooms had dirty tubs and the hall bath had duct tape over the overflow valve in the tub. My daughter got out a rag to use and a false eyelash fell out of it into the BR sink!!! Disgusting! The shower head in the en suite BR was horrible. Decent shower heads are not expensive. Back to the kitchen...there was a very small garbage can that would have been more suited to a bathroom, size wise. There was a nice coffee maker, but the coffee filters did not fit the coffee maker! The lighting in the whole apartment was awful...tiny lamps with bulbs that had a harsh glow. The lamp shade in the den/kitchen was crushed on the bottom. One of the aqua blue printed pillowcases in the master bedroom had what appeared to be bleach stains on it.

I think if the owners would spend 2 or 3 nights in the apartment, it would be helpful. The apartment has potential, but more attention to details and the basic needs of the renters is needed.

I know that this has been a rambling review, but I wrote down things as they came into my mind. One more thing...the streetcar does run in front of the house, but we were not made aware of the fact that there is repair work going on and it is not possible to ride all the way to Canal St.

We visited New Orleans for the first time with our family of 6 and our small dog. The Claiborne is a great place; roomy, clean and comfortable, one of the lower apartments in a large house. The home is quiet and we couldn't hear anything from the other units. It is well kept with friendly, quiet neighbors and easy parking.

The Uptown neighborhood is very nice with some large older well kept homes mixed with smaller homes. We were hesitant to go to New Orleans in July, but the weather was more comfortable than in Denver during our stay.

There are some very good neighborhood restaurants within a few blocks. We would walk up to Thai Basil for a dessert of mango sticky rice at night, then stroll around the neighborhood. A grocery store and a Walgreens are located in the opposite direction.

The location is perfect, quiet but close to downtown and the Quarter. You can take the Charles Street Trolley, which runs directly in front of the Claiborne to save the hassle of driving home after too much fun. There is a park less than a block away where we'd walk our dog and meet some of the neighbors. Extremely nice people there!

Excellent home-base for excursions into the quarter and gulf coast. We hope to stay here the next time we come to New Orleans! The unit was more than described, the issue of not enough glassware has been resolved (mentioned in previous review) and communication with the owner was excellent. I will recommend the Claiborne to anyone I know who is thinking of going to New Orleans.

The home itself is very beautiful, and I would recommend to anyone that if you truly want to enjoy the comforts of feeling like your at home then, this would be the perfect place to stay!! The spacious 3 bdrm 2 bath home clearly was enough room for our "Girls Get a Way" and so much more. The beds were very comfortable we slept like babies, and the kitchen, and living room has such a cozy feel along with everything you need to cook meals inside. I will return to new orleans to stay here this time with my husband and children... The Claiborne is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!
