Linka's place is a great place to stay at if you prefer to live like a local and circumvent the tourist craze after a full day of exploring. You need to be willing to take the bus, car or an Uber/taxi to go downtown or elsewhere. Taking the bus to the French Quarter is very easy, cheap and fast - you should download RTA's app and then you are good to go for 3 bucks a day or 1.25 per ride. Some people may find the district where Linka lives a bit dodgy but we didn't feel unsafe and were always greeted by the many friendly neighbors, even down the main road. There are nice bars and restaurants just a 10-minute foot-walk away, where you can eat and drink like the locals do.
The studio itself is a great space, clean, spacious and welcoming. Linka is an accommodating and generous host, and we felt that everything is very thought-through and selected with care. We enjoyed our stay very much and can recommend Linka's place.
