The hotel looks very neat from the outside. It’s convenient to dining/shopping. Parking was ample. The lobby area was basic. Check-in went smoothly. Once on the floor it was apparent how badly it needed refurbishing. Hallway carpet was worn. The walls were scraped up. The room was very basic. It did have a microwave, refrigerator and coffee maker however there were no cups. The room appeared to be clean but the towels and sheets were thin and worn. The sheets were really wrinkled and did not fit the bed well. Despite being clean, this just gives it the “ick” factor in my opinion. The water pressure in the shower was minimal. I did like that it had wall dispensers for soap, lotion, shampoo and conditioner instead of those little sample sizes however, there were 2 bottles of lotion at the sink so you had to get soap from the shower to wash your hands. I also liked that the floor in the room was laminate (?) and not carpet. The A/C cooled well. I can’t personally rate the breakfast area as my husband just went down for coffee. He did say it was pretty basic with hot and cold options. I asked him to bring me a cup of hot water to make tea but he said there was only coffee options at the bar. Check-out was easy and the lady working was very pleasant. I wish I had gotten her name because she was one of the very few bright spots at this hotel. Overall, this place is more like a $99 special. Definitely not worth the inflated price for a football weekend! Its 30-45 min from LSU.
