A channel guide and thermostat instructions would have helped
Room was clean and stocked well
Reserved the private bedroom so the marathon runner could sleep and rest before and after the race, but we had to walk through the bedroom to get to the bathroom.
Overall it was a good stay.
Welcoming smell in the lobby and throughout the entire building, clean and spotless room and hallways, good breakfast.

Clean Room, the staff was very friendly. Buffet Breakfast in the morning was fantastic! Would stay here again, and highly recommend! 5 minute drive to the LSU Football stadium as well, so very convenient for game days.
Staff was outstanding, but lots of traffic noise and the elevators were the loudest elevators ai have ever encountered in a hotel. Our room was not next to the elevator and the elevator noise still woke both of us. If you are a light sleeper, be sure you are all the way at the end of the hall away from the elevators.
Never heard of this hotel before but it was well worth it. Staff AWESOME. Rooms clean. There’s a restaurant,coffee bar and daiquiri bar next door . Really nice getaway

The stay was okay except our room was very noisy from some machine in the hotel and from traffic outside. Staff were great, however. Bed was very comfy.
I booked a night so my kids could swim. The hotel is very clean but the pool is definitely not the pool on the picture, it was much smaller. Overall great experience, the breakfast was a nice touch as well.
We stayed at this hotel in Baton Rouge to goto an LSU baseball game. It is literally a couple minute car ride from the baseball and football stadiums. Staff was very nice, and the breakfast was really good. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
