We stayed here for one night while traveling from Houston to New Orleans. The property itself was very clean, both inside and outside, which made our stay comfortable. The only downside was the front desk customer service, which could have been more welcoming. Overall, it was fine for a short stop.

The air conditioner was having trouble cooling. It was a bit on the warm side for me. The room was clean and cute. The property manager was friendly. I would stay there again. We stayed one night on our way to Florida and needed a place to sleep. The price is reasonable. No connecting room, which was something we needed. Overall, it’s good.

We’ve stayed here a few times. The property definitely needs some updating. The sink was cracked and multiple issues with walls with botched fixes. But we didn’t care we just needed a place to sleep and shower for our stay.
