I hope I have the opportunity to stay at Michel's place again. The studio is clean, thoughtfully decorated and well-stocked. It even has its own entrance and plenty of street parking. Though I did not get to meet Michel in person, as I was only in town for one night, I did meet her neighbors next door and across the street. Everyone was so friendly and made me feel welcome in their neighborhood. I got many great tips on local restaurants and shops to check out, and enjoyed each one of them! It was nice to stay out of the chaos of some of the more touristy areas, but when I did want to visit the French Quarter- it was only a short 10 minute car ride away. I highly recommend Michel's cozy cottage for your next trip to NOLA.
