because there is STILL a lot of work being done in the River Parishes.
Heck, half the stoplights don't even work downtown

Last month, reserved a suite at Loews for November. Yesterday, I figured it had died off and checked prices for the same.....$50 more expensive. Glad I booked when I did, I guess

Meterie and Kenner are insane. The girls are literally DRIVING in from b.r and northshore for a SINGLE call.. stead of just grabbing a room and sticking by the pool. I mean how the hell can the mediocre hotels be asking 200 bux? Then taxes?
God bless the cpl that have incall is all I can say!
Crazy..
Ok. Hadda vent! Lol morning yall!!

Hi Annie - That is why it is so dry here babe. If your ladies could get a room the mongers would be lined up down the hallway. Perhaps that is why your precious Angelique is doing well right now - she getting the multihour sessions. Is Charlie still in your group? Never seen her before but would like to.

Im grateful that I reserved a room CBD immediately post hurricane at a decent rate. Otherwise, rates are crazy!

[annie@christophers]

We finally got decent options. B.r and uptown...
Crazy rates. Doing dif options which are pleasantly working out! Much nicer places then 300 dollar roach motels! Lol

[dilbert firestorm]

how much are the hotel rooms?

[annie@christophers]

Starting to come down ( bout time!) But they were like Mardi prices. Fema crap...

We just got very lucky. Managed to get cpl of my clients to cough up some super cute places as favor to me..
Being old apparently does have its perks!! Lol

I recommend airbnbs folks

Recently, it seems that the BR area is more or less starting to get better compared to the past (well, depending how you book). I literally was looking for an advanced booking (on a weekend) for a potential outcall and I literally have seen hotels going for around HALF of what they were going for on a weekday about a month ago. Probably beceause the Ida people are gone now? Not sure how NO or Northshore stands, but I think we are headed for better days.

I looked into AirBnBs and they seem pretty neat for the most part. I mean, I like the idea of renting a house for a visit but (at least in BR) I have had issues with booking/conditions. A lot of the offerings that I have seen are room situations in a house with others which I isn't ideal (at least for me) and a lot of the private house situations have min stay requirements which kind of defeat the purpose since I would have to stay more than I need. Although for providers, the min stay thing might not be as much of an issue.
