Palmetto Loft, minutes to French Quarter!

The loft/ studio is a great space. Its spacious and thoughtfully laid out. The private courtyard is nice too, especially after being in the city all day, it was nice to sit outside and decompress. It was also really quiet. Could hardly hear the fireworks inside. Highly recommend. The little cat that hangs around is chill too.

I booked this for 2 nights, 5 months in advance. The host confirmed and accepted payment. The day before arrival I still hadn't received check in instructions. I messaged him and was told it was already booked. Yeah, by me. No answer. I texted his phone number and was told no sorry that was a mistake. Actually a prior guest trashed the room and it's no longer available. He still hadn't canceled my reservation or refunded my money. I'm on a plane trying to book a hotel for when I land. The room was finally canceled and refunded at check in time. It was a major headache and stress for a very short weekend trip. I think he probably realized he could charge more for Jazzfest than he charged me when I booked in December. Uncommunicative. I don't trust or reccomend booking here. I stayed at a hotel instead. Thank god they didn't price gouge me for the last minute stay.

Patrick reached out to say something was up with the property and he couldn’t host us, with less than 24 hours’ notice. No apology, no explanation at all. I was left scrambling to find another place to rent for my birthday when everything was sold out already. My first awful experience with a Vrbo host.

Despite false advertisement of off street parking, the stay was nice.

The he place was exactly as described and the host was very responsive and polite!

We came into New Orleans for the weekend. This property was clean, comfortable, and easy to get to different attractions around the city. I’d recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice place to stay.

Nice walk to the ferry. Perfect for a few nights. Worked out nice for us.

The property was cute but it had a lot of issues. Poor heating, Wifi limited, personal items throughout the space from the owner or other guest, Friendly cat that would follow you in and out. The bathroom was freezing and steps were not legally built. Ice and snow on the steps.

I loved the outdoor amenities and the indoor set up. It was cozy and perfect for my weekend stay. Patrick was very communicative and helpful with my inquiries.

This delightful, French Island-styled bungalow was a perfect respite for my short stay in NOLA. Slept like a queen. Love the little tea pot andSecrets of New Orleans travelguide!

Overall, we would have rather stayed elsewhere, but it did have some positive qualities. Check-In was at 2 PM so we arrived about 2:15 PM. Upon arriving, the cleaning crew had just gotten there to prep for the next guest. No big deal, minor inconvenience. We were checked in by 3 PM. As we were trying to figure out the heat source, the owner appears through a back storage closet. He repeatedly stated that it was just a back storage area and that no one would be in there, but it felt strange. Later that evening, we could hear a man carrying on with a phone conversation and we felt as if we didn't have the privacy here that one would expect. We also had zero heat source besides a 1500 watt space heater that is only sufficient for up to 150-200 SF. That being said, this is not a place to stay during the winter months. No central heat, nor sufficient heating for a space this large. Other than being uncomfortable with the lack of privacy and heating, the outside tub was a dismal. It was literally a bathtub stuck in the corner of the yard that was open for all to see. We expected it to be a private, closed off patio tub via the posted photos. It was not. When I spoke with the owner via VRBO messenger, his responses were always very short. A few days before we had arrived, I had messaged him asking for arrival instructions. His response was it's self check-in and gave me the code. If anything, we would have appreciated being told our check-in would be delayed.

Patrick, Is a great host! Communication was perfect. This place is a hidden away gem. Easy access to town and one of the best breakfast spots is a walk down the street. This place was extremely clean and decorated perfectly. Thank you again. We can’t wait to return.
