This place is the real deal -- beautiful, comfortable, spacious and just blocks from the heart of Uptown, family-oriented Carnival. Our big brood -- with kids 13 and younger -- spent the days before and including Mardi Gras 2023 here, and we loved it. We had plenty of space to spread out, lots of linens -- plus a great washer/dryer to keep up with laundry. We were pleasantly surprised to find street parking easily over our six days (a bit tougher during Iris and Rex, but even then not impossible). The fridge gave us plenty of room for our Louisiana staples, and the range/oven + pots and pans were just enough for us to prepare a proper jambalaya and crawfish pie for eight; we were glad to find a full coffee maker (not a Keurig), and the big dishwasher worked well. This unit is half a double, and our neighbors were very loud very late the first night -- but they kindly kept it down after we raised the issue directly. Front-door lock instructions could be clearer, but we managed it!
