Charla was a truly wonderful host - she was warm and welcoming. She made me feel very much at home in her space. Her home is well located to bike into downtown and the French Quarter, and she provided a fun bike on which to make these explorations. The space was airy and pleasant. Her dog was friendly and quite the charmer. I was travelling as a solo woman, and felt safe in her neighbourhood on my own, including walking back from the streetcar at night (which wasn't too far at all). I enjoyed my time there a great deal and would stay with her again in a heartbeat - and plan to do so in the future!
