Economy is what you get

This hotel is next to a strip club. Either very convenient or very worrisome depending on what you are into. AC unit was so loud you couldn’t cary on a conversation in the room. Was great white noise to sleep to though…

Great stay

It was great. Check in and out was very smooth, hotel has a great location and easy access to everything in Baton Rouge. House keeping does come are 830am if your on the bottom floor and if you're not ready for them they will come back around but you have to ask them to come back. For the breakfast bar youbhave to be there early for that when they have alot of guest but thats not the hotels fault. Only cons to the stay were the pillows for the bed were the size of couch throw pillows so if you like a real pillow bring your own. And the towels are on the smaller side so for us larger people they just dont work as well as normal size towels. Over all rating i still give 4.5 stars

We had a hair dryer that didn't work. We told them 3 times. Finally went to Walmart and bought one. The breakfast was hardly breakfast. No creamer for coffee. One empty, other didn't work. After 4 days, expected it could have been replenished. Housekeeper was awesome. Room kept clean.
