8/10 Very good

We stayed here for one night while traveling from Houston to New Orleans. The property itself was very clean, both inside and outside, which made our stay comfortable. The only downside was the front desk customer service, which could have been more welcoming. Overall, it was fine for a short stop.

Very convenient to downtown Lake Charles. Property has been nicely renovated since the 2020 hurricanes. No frills, but for the price it is a good choice for an overnight stay!

Room smelled amazing. I’d love to know what they clean with. Bed comfy. Ac worked so well even in LA heat I could’ve used another blanket because my husband froze me out lol

This property is old, yet clean. Little dingy. AC didn't function to it's capacity so it was discomforting. Even though we were only there for 6 hours (arrived at 5am and checked out by 11am), we managed to rest. Staff were nice.

Nice Hotel but breakfast is not included.

Need it a rest on a road trip and all nice hotels were booked so I had to look for other options. The hotel is located in a historical neighborhood very close to the street shopping. Safe area and the hotel room was very clean and smell clean. The furniture seemed new. Very safe location to travel with family or by yourself. The only thing is that breakfast is NOT provided eventhough it says so when you are booking. Close to the convention center and downtown area.

It is what it is for the price point. Room was clean. I reserved a king bed, but they put us in a double and was charged the same price as king room. Don't expect much for the "breakfast". It was a couple of muffins cut up into quarters.

2/10 Poor

You get what you paid for

The lady at the counter was nice. She checked us and quickly. Upon getting into our room we found roaches and a bee. The whole room needed an upgrade fixtures were falling internet didn't work very good. Well we got what we paid for.
Jaclyn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was nice to find an affordable room for one night on short notice through the app. It was also nice to have the reservation correct and available upon arrival. While checking out just before 11am it was nice to have complimentary coffee since the room price includes a continental breakfast but, apparently, not after 10am. Approximately 8 hours after check out, the realization that an item had been left behind generated a phone call. The manager seemed quite ambivalent stating that the item had likely been recycled. What?!?! That response was not only shocking, it is also unacceptable. We shall see if this manager has any idea how to manage his housekeeping staff or how to provide good customer service.

The room had a mildew smell, it was definitely not fresh smelling. The toilet handle was hanging on for dear life and the cable was shotty on and off. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone it wasn’t worth the price.
