Needs to invest towels wash cloths . I needed extra when i asked they said they had no more did give me 2 washcloths. They looked like over 20 yrs old, stained , few areas of concern if it was cleaned.
Will not be back , i do not recommend.

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

Great price point
Staff was friendly- rooms and motel itself were older, but it was decent. Great for the price point and everything smelt and felt clean. It was a business trip, so we did not partake in any breakfast items. Although, as we checked out early, I did notice breakfast items and hot coffee set out and ready for guests.

It was ok for one night. I will not stay there again. I didn't like that I had to checkin outside at a booth after 10:00pm. This tells me the area may be a little sketchy.

The hotel was ok, we stayed the night and we got a good night sleep. It was clean, and the rooms were fine. The staff was friendly, really it was a great hotel to stay for the night passing through. Only thing was it was right next door to a strip club.
