    We stayed here for a campus tour and the location was perfect. We could walk to anywhere on the campus. The hotel was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful with answering questions. The breakfast buffet was an added bonus.

    Some of the rooms are getting outdated, and the plumbing is getting quirky. Never can get the towel and washcloth count perfect. But overall great experience.

    I have stayed here often. All of the staff is like family. Breakfast is great, giftshop is nice. The coffee is always going. The proximity to LSU is perfect. I prefer to stay here for all of my visits to Baton Rouge. It is secure and offers plenty additional space to bring guests for entertaining and spaces for my remote work.

    6 different TV channels in the breakfast room seemed a little much - I guess it could be done if each table allowed selection of the channel on a speaker on the table

    Few guests so the selection at breakfast was scaled down - which makes sense

    Finding the building is difficult I drove in circles and finally had to call the front desk for help. The decor is very bland and reminds you of the movie The Shining.

    Beds were comfortable and it was surprisingly quite especially for being on LSU campus.

    Provide a quality egg and a meat variety. A better pastry offering

    Overall the breakfast was good, a normal hotel standard. Not exceptional. The pastry is poor and the meat is common.

    A lovely hotel on LSU's campus
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Standard King Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    The reviews talk a lot about the location and some are misleading. This hotel is on the LSU campus; it is near a lovely lake (for morning jogs) but is NOT within walking distance of anything to visit if you are a tourist not affiliated with the university. If you want to visit restaurants, cafés, shopping or do any touring, you will need a car. It is a bit isolated. (Though this is also a plus if you like peaceful walks). I did not meet anyone who was not affiliated with LSU. Also, the "hot" breakfast is not for anyone with nut or soy allergies. It looked delicious, but *everything* (sausage, grits, eggs, etc.) was fried in soybean oil. I really appreciate that the staff were honest about the allergens; they accommodated me by checking thoroughly on ingredients. I was disappointed not to have any hot breakfast, but grateful they were conscientious about my food allergies. Much appreciated! Do not pay for the breakfast if you have any allergies to nuts, soy, or shellfish. There is a sign on the breakfast table saying all the foods may contain those allergens. There are cold cereals and coffee as an alternative.

    The staff was lovely.The hotel is clean and quiet, (noise level depends on your room). The first room I was given was near the elevator and a bit noisy-- and they switched me to a quieter room without a fuss, even though I arrived quite late in the evening. (I did have to pay full price for the new room. It was an upgrade -- so fair enough). The suite I stayed in was beautiful and well equipped. (No bathrobes, but everything else). Free parking for my rental car was an appreciated perk.
