LSU trip

The service was really polite, quick to respond if need, clean, close to LSU. It will be back and stay there. Good Price. My only suggestion is to be aware who came late asking for stay, some people got there around 1am really loud and didn’t stop Making noises. And because of that our 1st. Night was terrible. We couldn’t sleep they didn’t stop all night.

we checked in at 3 and tell me that our room has 1 bed when my confirmation emails clearly said 2 beds but there was “nothing they could do” and then we walk into our room still not cleaned, they then transferred us to another room. it smelled of mildew terribly. upon checking out i was asking for my $100 security deposit back and they were trying to act like i didn’t give them cash, eventually he realized it was in another envelope and gave it back to us. will literally never come back, only good thing is this hotel shared a parking lot with a strip club

The gentleman at the front desk that wore the turban was very professional and nice. The gentleman who was maintenance was rude and not a real maintenance man. Our air-conditioning broke. ( The front desk gentleman with the turban was polite and moved out room.) The other gentleman came by and said it work now. The fridge wasn't staying cold enough he reached in and took frost off back said it working

It’s a good place to sleep. Hair dryer was broken, vending machines only took coins but no sign saying so, breakfast is VERY basic and the coffee machine was acting up, and there was a herd of tumbling elephants above us the first night. We were so tired, we managed to sleep anyway. Staff is nice. Location great for college drop off (Walmart, iHop etc.) close by. I would stay here again - just have low mush expectations

Great stay

2nd time staying there this year and enjoyed my stay again. Room was clean and staff was amazing. Only grip would be the smaller pillows on the bed when it comes to the lenght of them. But the were extra fluffy and comfortable. Is in a good central location to alot of food, entertainment and shopping.

Budget stay in Baton Rouge

For a budget hotel it’s in good shape. Location is good not too far off the highway with lots of food options and a Walmart right down the street. It is next door to a gentleman’s club. Not sure if that’s a pro or con. 😂 Room was comfortable. AC worked well. Free WiFi. Free parking. Overall a good place at a good price.

Good for quick trip

The hotel was in a very convenient location. Was a little concerned when I pulled up and saw a gentleman’s club in the parking lot. But I stayed on a Sunday night and it was quiet. Bathroom was noticeably cleaner than most hotels. Overall would stay here again if needed.
