Couldn't have asked for a better location or place to stay for Mardi Gras! It is close enough to watch and enjoy the parades (few blocks away), a little distant enough to avoid all the madness, noise and pollution that comes along with it.
You enter your suite through a pretty tall door (Wun Wun #GameOfThronesReference could enter without any trouble). You can imagine the height of the roof already. The suite has some amazing collection of books. All areas of the suite are well-maintained. The bed was really soft that we slept like a baby and woke up without any tiredness / sore back or neck (which I usually experience in hotel beds). The bathroom is well-equipped with the essentials. For a person who hasn't lived in old houses, it was sort of a time travel experience to live in an old but very well-maintained house.
Just one call out though, You can pretty much hear everything that's happening in the neighboring unit through the door (which is locked all the time and separates the 2 units).
