Summary:

Experience the heart of Acadiana from this stylish, private retreat. Just steps from the vibrant energy of Downtown Lafayette, this 1-bedroom home blends historic charm with modern convenience. Whether you’re here for a festival at Parc International, a show at the Center for the Arts, you’ll love coming home to a warm fireplace, a fully stocked kitchen, and the total privacy of your own unit. Enjoy the best of the city with the peace of mind of secure, free parking and a key-less.

The Bedroom: A quiet sanctuary featuring a premium mattress and crisp, fresh linens.



The Perks: In-unit laundry, ice-cold A/C (essential for Louisiana summers!), and a private bathroom stocked with essentials and a soaking tub.

Little rough gem

Decor is adorable for the place and accurate to the photos. Having stayed in VRBOs before it would be more convenient to have extra trash bags, paper towels, towels, salt pepper or all-purpose Cajun seasoning, silverware, at least one laundry pod, little things like that. We made do, but with strategic utilization of what was available and keeping some items from takeout meals. Contacting the host was easy and they were professional and polite. Lyft drivers warned of the neighborhood, and I knew that given I’m familiar with the area, but we had zero problems. Perfect walking distance from downtown Lafayette, and driving anywhere was convenient. We’d be happy to stay again! Thanks so much for your space!

I LOVE THE CONCEPT OF THIS BACK TO BACK DUPLEX IN WHAT I BELIEVE IS AN OLD SHOTGUN HOUSE. PERFECT FOR EVENTS DOWNTOWN. THIS IS A BUSY INTERSECTION! HOWEVER, THERE SEEMS TO BE ADEQUATE INSULATION. I SLEPT WELL. THIS IS A TWO PERSON UNIT. THE BATHROOM IS GREAT FOR A BUBBLE BATH. NICE FIXTURES. CHARMING CABINETS IN THE KITCHEN AND A FAUX FIREPLACE THAT I LOVED. THERE IS ALSO A SMALL WRITING DESK AND COOL SLIDING "BARN DOOR" IN THE LIVING AREA. WITH A FEW TOUCHES REGARDING LANDSCAPING AND PERHAPS A FEW OTHER THINGS IN THE KITCHEN - A MINUTE SHOPPING TRIP AND ITS PERFECT FOR TWO! We suggested a new coffee pot and personal touches, good towels, good products like soap, a great new throw for the living rm etc With just a few nice pieces of glassware, ice trays and utincils we'd be cooking with grease :). Looking forward to visiting in the Spring! Nice hardwood floors. The property manager was easily contacted and professional. The door is old of course and perhaps a new keypad install would be more guest friendly.

HORRIBLE

The space was filthy and felt very unsafe, took pictures to prove it and sent to owner. Definitely not as advertised, not walkable distance to downtown. We left 3 hours upon arrival because of how unsafe and unclean it was. We were denied a refund. Plenty other places to stay in Lafayette. Reviews below me are from a year ago that’s what I went off of to stay here but don’t get tricked like I did.
