My family and I headed down for a very important birthday and had the best time! It was an easy walk to St. Charles and Audubon park and zoo, and close to some very good restaurants, but it was quite during the night. The layout was perfect the family configuration we had going on and everyone enjoyed hanging out on the porches and communal areas talking or playing hide n seek for the kids. There was good communication before, during, and after the stay...with everything meeting the description.
