LSU convenient

Very nice. Loved the attention to detail and lobby. Felt higher end. Bed comfy, bath very good. Breakfast- average, powdered eggs. They did have soft drink available though. Parking lot doesnt match front door... little confusing.

Nice place

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.

I felt like we were staying in a one bedroom apartment, it didn't look like your average hotel suite. I took a nap on the couch watching the big screen TV feeling like I was at home. I'm sold!

Hotel was very nice. The furniture in the rooms could use a good shampoo. The staff was pleasant and there were plenty restaurants near by. Breakfast had a nice hot bar daily. Our only complaint was how expensive the pet fee was. $87 (with tax) is higher than normal. I’m not sure they should be taxing a fee either but that’s not the point.
