Venture downstairs, and you'll find a cozy retreat featuring shorter ceilings and stylish vinyl flooring, where the kitchen and dining area await. Whip up your favorite meals in the well-appointed kitchen, then gather around the dining table for a leisurely feast or a lively conversation.

*** It is important to note that upstairs has very tall ceilings while the downstairs rooms, the downstairs kitchen, laundry, and dining area have short cozy ceilings around 79-80 inches tall which is about 6 feet 7 inches to 6 feet 8 inches.

**This apartment is in a raised home! There are stairs inside and outside the unit. The Stairs outside are large concrete stairs and the stairs inside are narrow wooden steps with metal support. You can enter from downstairs into a bedroom or you will need to walk up a full flight of stairs to enter the apartment! ** You will have to walk through 3 of the bedrooms to get to 2 of the bathrooms with two bedroom being set apart from the others a bathroom that is set apart . The first bedroom upstairs serves a bedroom and can serve as a living room if you wish to used the full size Day Bed with trundle bed as couch instead!

If we head back to the first bedroom / living room you will find a stair case that leads to the ground level with the short ceilings. The first thing you will see when you get down the stairs is the stainless steel kitchen. To the left of the kitchen is the dining area / living room. Directly across from the kitchen there will be two doors across from the kitchen that each leads to the 4th and 5th bedrooms that are not connected like the other rooms.

Great location and nice place but smaller than expected

Overall it was a good stay. The place was nice and the management was great. We originally booked for a group of 15 but wound up only having 10. If we had all 15 come it wouldn’t have been enough places to sleep, it was full with 10.

Lodging Experience in New Orleans

Our stay at this Big Balcony was ok. The neighborhood was aesthetics was the best. With 5 guest the rooms wasn’t really private. The upstairs room layout looks like you’re staying in a closet. The stairs between upstairs and downstairs are pretty steep and not built for heavy foot traffic. In the one room there’s piece of pile wood covering the window. Honestly had we read the reviews we probably would’ve been more prepared or opted another unit. Overall we were able to manage with the lodging. The property manager was very helpful.

Haunted Weekend in New Orleans

We had an amazing weekend at our VRBO. Prime location and close to most everything. Riding the trolley was a bonus!! Just a short walk, a few blocks down to canal and we rode the trolley everywhere. We walked the neighborhood at night from Canal and felt completely safe. Beautiful location! The upper patio was the icong in the cake. We loved sitting outside and enjoying an adult beverage ❤️ Thanks for hosting a great weekend 🎃👻

My first time in New Orleans

Genesis was super helpful and responsive during my trip. The home was beautiful and a great location to really experience the community of the city. We were close to the bus stop and walking distance from some great local food spots and bars.

Super cute place

This place was so cute. The balcony and patio areas were prefect for sitting outside in the evenings. The lack of a communal seating area was a little odd, but it worked fine for us as we weren't there much anyway, and we have a bunch of teens. So, we just gave them them the entire upstairs area, which made them happy. The host was very responsive with any questions we had. The place was clean. The beds (at least downstairs) were soooo comfy. The kitchen didn't have much to cook with, but we made it work. Again, we weren't there much anyway. It's on a busy street so parking was a little tricky at times, but it was nice to be so close to everything. We would definitely recommend this host/place to our friends.

Overall it was a decent home

Pros: The manager is very communicative. Any issue we had Genesis was willing to fix it immediately. The beds are very comfortable! The AC works great! The noise level was low. Cons: There aren’t really any spaces for you to sit down. There’s not a living room with couches and chairs so it was somewhat awkward when my family wanted to hang out together. The people before us had broken out a window. They didn’t report it and the curtain was covering it and we didn’t understand how so many mosquitoes and bugs were getting into the home. The front door lock sticks and you have to push really hard on the door to open and close. The steps are VERY steep!! Overall, the owner does a GREAT job communicating. The window wasn’t their fault and they did the best they could to remedy the situation. Parking was easy and many times we found spots right in front or on the side of the home. I think if the owner added couches and chairs to the upstairs area it would’ve made it more comfortable.
