Karen's house was exactly as she posted. She met us at check-in and showed us around. She had coffee, milk, muffins, yogurt and water bottles for us in the fridge. This was such a nice touch. The house is very clean, well-kept, and spacious. Yet some of the touches of an older home make it quaint and cozy. The location was in good proximity to drive to any of the attractions in less than 15 minutes. The neighborhood was quiet and the neighbors really watch out for the house. (They suspected something was wrong and called Karen immediately. She called us to check. (Everything was okay, we had left the door open.) It felt good knowing that the neighbors were looking out for the place.
The only thing I would warn about is that since the houses are so close together, you can hear the neighbors. We were awakened two mornings by people knocking on the neighbor's doors and *loudly* talking to the neighbors from outside the house. (One was needing a ride to the airport and the other had a basketball he was bouncing and then talking about.) We didn't find it terrible and it made for laughs later in the day, but it would have been nice not to be awakened in that manner.
Overall, we would recommend this house if you are planning to visit New Orleans!
