Karen's place was perfect! Located in the Garden District, it was close enough to the action that we could walk or take a 5 minute Uber to all the touristy stuff, but just far enough away that it was quiet and peaceful when we wanted to relax away from the crowds. The home itself was beautiful and spacious, large enough for the 6 of us to hang out, drinking in the the living room or on the balcony. Karen herself is absolutely amazing! Besides knowing the town and offering tips to get the most out of our vacation, she was also unbelievably kind. She was so accommodating when our airlines changed our flight times and even cancelled our flight home. She offered help when we weren't sure we could get home. I cannot recommend Karen or her place enough, we cannot wait to visit again.
