From the moment you entered the hotel you felt like LSU family! The nostalgia and decor felt so warm and welcoming. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The breakfast buffet was delicious and the icing on the cake was the waffle maker with the LSU logo! Could not get any better than that! If you are visiting LSU you must stay at this hotel.
