This motel is perfect for people traveling with dogs. I think we were the only dogless people staying there. Had to get by 2 huge Great Danes to access pool (which was cloudy). One GD was inside pool fence, the other was near entrance gate. Another yapping dog barked every time we walked past that room. Very nice fenced area for dogs but lady with Great Dane was walking it in the grass in front of my car the next morning. My thought was she wasn’t planning to remove the deposit it probably left. I also found someone’s leftover food in my room refrigerator. The AC motor was squealing when I first got to my room but that was taken care of quickly by the maintenance man. He put new motor in within an hour of my call to front desk. Front of hotel is still really nice where restaurant.

I’m a fan of Clarion and this is the nicest one we’ve stayed at. My son says it’s better than a resort. It’s peaceful with plenty of outdoor area to relax. The pool is clean and nice. The doors are outside with parking right out the door but it was not loud. The beds were comfortable and the room was very clean. Shower was great. Breakfast is in the bar area of Mike Anderson’s. My son appreciated the grits and real bacon plus they had hot sauce, we are Louisiana people. Coffee was Community, we drink that at home. Overall, we were very impressed. This is on our list to stay at again.

We stayed here 2 years ago for a family wedding in White Castle and chose to stay again this year for a family funeral in Baton Rouge because we liked the hotel so well. Staff is amazing, love the breakfast, love the bar, comfy beds, atmosphere around the hotel is nice (patio area, pool, grounds) This is a great place to stay and we would choose it again.
