Lovely stay in St. Roch

This place is authentic and charming. Colorful, cozy, and inviting, it offered a nice place to stay that made you feel like you were still in New Orleans and not a sterile, bland hotel. Rik was great - very hospitable and quick to respond. We had a lovely time!

Awesome vibe, quiet neighborhood with short walk to Frenchman

Cool neighborhood, far enough to be a cozy retreat with lots of food options, a co-op, venues and Frenchman Street within a short walk. Comfy bed, loads of nice touches, loved the disc golf basket and pool table to play with friends. Record collection was choice.

Quick access to the French Quarter

If you want to be close to the French Quarter then this location is perfect. You can drive or Uber in just minutes to anywhere in the French Quarter. It was quiet and we had no issues.

Anniversary trip

We loved staying at Rik’s. The house is beautifully decorated and clean. We played pool and listened to records every night we were there. Rik was a very informative host, he messaged me a few times with activity suggestions without me even asking. The bed was very comfortable and the neighborhood is quiet. We chose to utilize uber instead of dealing with parking when we went into the quarter. Uber averaged 6-10$ per trip. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone coming to New Orleans.

Simple and easy

Neat little house. Quirky but in a nice way, well decorated and clean. Very pleasant couple of days. Location is fine, but not on top of the tourist bits so quite quiet and easy to find. Still only 10-15 mins to the garden district though, New Orleans isn’t very big. Rik was easy to deal with and communicated everything. Would definitely stay again. Oh and highly recommend Who Dat cafe for breakfast. Half mile away and awesome.

Authentic New Orleans Shotgun home

Just perfect for us on our family visit to New Orleans. Rik is an excellent host and the home is clean, comfortable, well stocked, and artistically furnished. Loved the backyard space with chairs and mural. We had a vehicle but most of our travels were only 4 to 5 miles away and parking was available either in lots or street parking. We loved being in a neighborhood as locals and Rik suggested a music venue just outside of the French Quarter with amazing talent. Thank you again Rik.

Repulsed

Refused to stay. Blood and urine stains on the mattresses and dead cockroaches on the bedroom floor- mold in the bathroom tub , steel bars on the doors and windows-sketchy neighborhood-all that were not conveniently shown in the advertisement.

What can I say, my other reviews and photos speak for themselves. After being a 5-star superhost for 8 years now, I’ve never experienced such a disgruntled complainer-type of guest before. For the record my mattresses are new, I do not have a bug or mold problem and my neighborhood isn’t sketchy. Hosts beware of this guy:/

Great amenities, cool areas nearby, needs a deep clean

Amenities were great (pool/ping pong/records/umbrella), host was friendly and accommodating, cool areas to walk/bus to, relatively quiet. Could use more comfortable seating in the living room, clarify on which unit you're staying in ahead of time. Looked like he was rushing to get it ready, maybe because we requested an early arrival - hand towels in kitchen and bathroom were wet so we weren't sure if they were clean, sink was dirty, dishwasher had dishes in it, bathroom door is very dirty and all four of us left with bedbug bites. This was an unfortunate part, otherwise a good experience.

The bed definitely doesn’t have bed bugs I promise, in case you’re a future guest! Jason if a towel or two was a little damp still, it was because it was just washed, and I was trying to have the place ready for you all for an early checkin to accommodate you Mr request the best I could.

About the host

Hosted by Rik Fletcher

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Rik!
I love traveling to cool cities and National Parks. I also really enjoy dogs, music, food, art, comedy and cosmology. I moved to New Orleans after high school in 1995, and have been since playing piano and organ full time. I enjoy giving guests recommendations when they ask so that I can hopefully help their vacation more fabulous.

Why they chose this property

It’s 6 blocks to the Marigny Neighborhood, which is similar to the prettier and less touristy half of the adjacent French Quarter. The FQ is also only 1 mile away!

What makes this property unique

I also have a Pool table (which coverts to a ping pong table), piano, Fender Rhodes, and a disc golf basket in the backyard!
