Great experience staying with Karen in New Orleans. Karen made us feel at home. She is a professional chef and prepares excellent food. The rooms are comfortable, spacious and clean with high ceilings. The house is a piece of New Orleans history. The neighbourhood is beautiful and a nice change of pace to the intensity and noise of the French Quarter. Algiers Point is a quiet spot, there is a restaurant (Tavolino), two cafes and several local pubs nearby, good walks are to be had, and the ferry is a lot of fun to take across the Mississippi and lands you right at Canal Street.
