Darleen's place has an exceptional location; very safe and quiet and close to a lot of what Uptown has to offer. We were able to walk to parades, shops, and restaurants easily. She was a very accommodating host and gave us both delicious croissants and little squeezy pouches for our toddler (bonus!). She also has a stroller and a pack and play for you to borrow which really reduced our packing load. If you're staying with a small child, note the pictures are completely accurate and you will be in the same space as they are; if you're pregnant like me going to bed early with your 2 year old is a bonus :) Thanks Darleen!
