I have been working in Montpellier for six months and needed a place for three nights after my longer term lease expired. Le Clos Chez Michel was perfect. The location is a 3-4 minute walk to the train station (Saint-Roch), a 5-6 minute walk to at least two different tram stops (Saint-Roch and Du Guesclin), and a 7-8 minute walk to the main downtown plaza (Comédie). The owner, Michel, lives upstairs and has obviously taken great care to ensure that the establishment is well maintained, both inside and out. My in-room bathroom had been recently remodeled, the bed was comfortable, the room was dark at night and quiet, the in-room air conditioner worked well and gave me control over the temperature setting, the breakfast was excellent, guests have access to a well equipped and also up-to-date kitchen, and there's a nice enclosed outdoor garden with seating as well. Michel is a delightful host who not only cheerfully allowed both me and my luggage to hang around until mid-afternoon because I had a late-day flight but who also called a taxi for me and rolled my big suitcase to the cab. In short, it's a great place, far preferable in my view to the hotels I considered at comparable and even higher price points. I look forward to a return visit in the future. Thanks!
