Our stay here was great. The staff was very friendly and courteous and helpful. We stayed here for 3 days and after the 1st day, the front desk staff knew us by name and greeted us each time they saw us. We found out after we stayed that they were in the process of putting new pillowtop mattresses in all the rooms, and our room didn't have the new mattresses yet, so I asked the front desk and they got maintenance to get me a new mattress that same day. The area isnt too bad, close to downtown. Lots of new construction around the hotel, a huge business center across the street that is absolutely gorgeous. I met a lot of police staying at the hotel for training. They said the police headquarters is right down the street. Hotel did not have a restaurant or food, but they had a bar opened in the afternoons. Bartender was very nice and let me try some new drinks they made for free!! Its a very quiet hotel, lots of business people that stay there from what the front desk told me. The staff are very friendly and spend time to talk to you and show you around the hotel. Very helpful with directions also. Their hot breakfast is absolutely great!! its the best eggs, grits, and sausages I've ever had at a hotel and I travel alot!! The only bad thing about the hotel is maybe how the outside looks and the landscaping, but of course don't judge a book by its cover....this is truely a "hole-in-the-wall" type place where the outside doesn't look that great, but the inside is just wonderful. This is definately not your cookie cutter hotel, and I will definately stay whenever i am in Baton Rouge.

We stayed here at the suggestion of a travel agent...won't do that again. This hotel is difficult to find and is not really close to anything and not in the best neighborhood. We got lost trying to find the place so I called to get directions, got partial directions and was told to call back when I got to a certain street...I called for 20 minutes with no answer plus no one in the area knew where the hotel was either. We finally found it after about 30 min. Hotel doesn't look bad, the kids liked the ambiance of it and the hotel room in itself was easy on the eyes but at closer look was dirty. We tried to use the old microwave they had in the room but when we did it made the whole room smell like throw up and the windows do not open. The bathtub walls had someone elses black hair in several places. We had two queen beds, neither of which had a fitted sheet, only a flat sheet so when you rolled over in your sleep the sheets would come up and you'd find yourself sleeping on the bare mattress. For the breakfast buffet they had a variety of things and you can make your own waffles but the pasteries were stale and hard and the toaster took longer to toast your bread the it took to make your own waffle. Eggs were and sausages were luke warm at best. My daughter loved the cereal so that was a good thing.

I stayed at this hotel for 2 weeks on business. This hotel is not in the nicest section of Baton Rouge. It is quite far from most shopping. The price is somewhat high for the services. They had free wireless internet but the internet connetion did not work most days.
