Michabelle Inn & Restaurant

My husband and I stopped here on our way to our New Orleans anniversary trip. We stayed in the Orleans Suite. It is located in a cottage-​like building off of the main house. While the building (if I remember correctly) is a triplex, it felt very private and it was quiet. There is a screened in porch. The room has a separate living area with a sofa bed. There is a jacuzzi in the room with candles. It’s romantic while being affordable. It was very clean.
The owners were very friendly and accommodating. The location was in a kind of residential area and it felt very safe. I think that if you compared this Inn with local hotels, you’d see the value. There are many more amenities than other places to stay in Hammond.
I wouldn’t pay much attention to some of the more negative reviews. I do not mean to be offensive, but they lack weight. This isn’t a five star hotel in a metropolitan area. So, don’t expect that. There aren’t priceless antiques in the suites (There was a bidet, though). There is no man wearing a three piece suit following you around with a crumb duster. That’s perfectly fine. I prefer it that way.
There are genuinely kind owners, more amenities, good value, clean and thoughtfully decorated rooms and breakfast. Though, we slept through breakfast ’cause the beds were nice and the room is pleasantly dark when you close the curtains.
Oh, and the wifi worked better than most of the ritzier hotels I’ve stayed in. It worked well enough for me to take a final.
We’d recommend this place.

It came with great reviews but they will con you. They tried to make us pay twice. I caution you if you choose this place, it is nice but there are a lot of skeletons among the staff here who are not near as nice as the place looks.

Really nice old southern home converted into a B&B
very nice hosts, attentive and helpful. Charming setting, clean and well maintained. Highly recommended.

Wouldn’t say it was as bad as the other review. The owners work very hard to keep this place up and they are so kind. Breakfast was very good; potatoes, scrambled eggs and sausage. We stayed in the Venetian suite. It has a huge comfy bed and a jacuzzi tub. It was decorated with an Italian theme and that was very peaceful and serene. This is our second time here, the first time we stayed in the oriental suite and it was very nice. We will definitely be back to our get away from home.

Run as fast as you can AWAY from this place!
We stayed here based on the review — mistake. The place is a DUMP!
— The «cottages» were really an old trailer hidden by half-​dead bamboo trees.
— The room smelled dank, musty, and moldy.
— The throw rugs were disgustingly filthy; I would not walk on them without shoes.
— The jacuzzi tub had a leaking faucet and mold inside the jets — not so «romantic.»
— The décor was cheesy, complete with plastic foliage everywhere in the room.
— The breakfast was not the «pleasure to eye as well as the taste buds» as claimed on their website, but rather an inedible mess that should never have been taken out of the freezer. The omelet had no flavor. The fruit cocktail was a partially defrosted out-​of-​season frozen fruit medley topped with Cool Whip. The croissant and mini-​muffins, although defrosted completely, tasted like the refrigerator. And the tea tasted like cardboard.
If you are looking for a romantic get-​away do not waste your time or money here!

We stayed in the Orleans Suite which is the largest of the suites. It had a separate living room area with a couch, TV, desk, table and chairs, and access to the cottage’s front porch. The bedroom contains a romantic king sized bed. barrel ceilings, elegant woodwork, and full sized Jacuzzi bathtub. The Orleans suite is ideal for families traveling with children, featuring a sleep sofa in the separate living room. The bedroom also features cable, TV, mini-​fridge and microwave.
It is located failry close to New Orleans, and we felt like we were staying in Disney’s haunted mansion which we loved. We asked the house lady if it was haunted, and she said no. I can contest there were no noises, or anything spooky at all during our stay. The awesome part was the bamboo walkway which had frogs, and other animal life. Being from southern california, this was much different than where we live. We loved it.
