I gave Lauren a 5 star great review because her home was welcoming, cozy and perfect for our short stay. Lauren was very responsive to our messages and assisted with parking when we arrived. There is a train nearby but it didn’t really interfere with our sleep. The beds were very comfortable, which was a nice surprise.
However, we expected some crime being New Orleans, but we weren’t expecting to hear of heavy crime that often takes place in the McDonalds parking lot behind this home, that can involve violence. We had zero issues during our stay regarding vandalism or any threat of our lives, but I find it to be important that people are made aware of this! I will say while we were inside our home I felt comfortable and safe, and slept very well! But I would not recommend walking anywhere around this area after the sun goes down and never alone!
All in all, I would use Lauren’s home again in the future IF I planned a return trip to NOLA.
