Del's place is exactly as described. The location is perfect, one block up from St. Charles, and within walking distance to restaurants (Another Broken Egg, .4mi), grocery store (Fresh Market, 1 block), and a lovely independent bookstore (Garden District Book Store, .7mi). It was a great location for my parents and I, with my two dogs as well, and while the weekend was rainy, we were able to enjoy walks between rain showers and cook in the kitchen that included a gas stove, and full assortment of pots and pans. If you are short (I'm 5'3") it may be difficult to reach and use the microwave, which is located on top of the refrigerator. The decor is relaxing, and the air conditioning works great once you set it to your desired temperature. While the parking was on the street, there was always ample spaces available. If you are heading to NOLA, Del's place is just close enough to enjoy all downtown has to offer, and far enough away that it is quiet at night. I definitely recommend, especially if you are traveling with pets.
