We decided to stay in Karen’s home because we wanted to be apart of the beautiful culture of NOLA. from our arrival to departure Karen and her home were so welcoming, we didn’t want to leave! She was filled with tips about food and places to hang out in the city, all wonderful! The home was beautiful inside and out and clean! though we were a little worried about the nightlife outside of the highly populated areas we did feel extremely safe after we locked our door at night. all in all, we had a wonderful stay!
