My experience staying with Melissa and Mika was nothing short of phenomenal! I truly appreciated that her listing reflected all the facts. I can't imagine more fun or helpful hosts! Fantastic ideas and directions were plentiful, but the freedom to keep completely to myself (if I had chosen to do so) was also totally available. Within walking distance in this great neighborhood experiencing a seeming Renaissance I found fun festivals, the Marigny,the famous French Quarter, Frenchman street, a nighttime open air local artist gallery, great little mom-and-pop grocery stores, a wonderful little food co-op/ healing arts collective, a coffee shop that had the best yummy vegan brownies and tea, the ferry ride, Aquarium, and much more then I can list or had time to even do!
I can honestly say I would have been happy to never leave. :-)
Very spacious, very clean, and most refreshing. My thanks to Melissa and Mika!
