The front desk was very accommodating. There is no coffee pot in the room and breakfast doesn't start until 7am so I missed out due to having to leave to go to work. I chose the hotel based off of the price plus the fact they served breakfast. The staff more than made up for my disappointment in hospitality.

Total disappointment

The air conditioner was having trouble cooling. It was a bit on the warm side for me. The room was clean and cute. The property manager was friendly. I would stay there again. We stayed one night on our way to Florida and needed a place to sleep. The price is reasonable. No connecting room, which was something we needed. Overall, it’s good.

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!

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.

Clean comfy place

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

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.

This hotel should not be opened, and it needs to be removed from hotels.com website. Cockroaches, unsanitary, dirty and just gross.
