Great location away from craziness of the French Quarter, but close enough when we were ready to see a parade, or go party. Brigitte made some great suggestions for new places to eat. I’ve been to N.O. too many times to count, but it’s been awhile since I’ve been to a Mardi Gras, especially Fat Tuesday. Her info and ideas were appreciated. There was more than enough room for the five of us! I wouldn’t hesitate to stay with Brigitte again!
