Room was very clean and fantastic looking ##### Ronald Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria Sep 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness It was very clean & comfortable. My only complaint was that there were no electrical plugs in the bathroom, which was very clean. ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Emiliano Oct 27, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Good motel. Does not compare to a hotel though. Their high rating should not be compared against a hotel’s high rating. This is a good motel for quick business but not for a family trip. Room had an extremely strong smell of smoke. The staff was friendly and attentive but this is definitely not where you’d want your family/kids to stay. Perfectly fine for business travel or quick travel stop for a night. Decently clean. Well lit at night but “crowd” did not give you the safest feeling. It is BR after all. Felt happy that they had an armed security guard there though. He was very kind. ##### Emiliano Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Tried this motel when my usual place was booked and others were expensive for LSU homecoming. Family run, they are friendly and seem to take pride in the property. Just one driveway in and out that goes by the front office, so felt secure. Arrived back from football game after midnight and was happy to see it well-lit, with a bright light above each door. Room furniture is dated but the bed and pillows were very comfortable. Very clean room. Only insect I saw was a harmless caterpillar in the bathroom. Had a fridge and microwave and good tv. After leaving my room, I saw housekeeping immediately enter and remove all my bedding, so can confirm it gets washed between guests. Overall, not fancy by any stretch, but had everything I needed at a very good price. ##### James Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dianne Oct 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Room was clean but the ac had a musty smell. Bathroom and floors were very clean. For an older hotel it was very nice. Quiet area parking was easy. Nice and quiet alsi ##### Dianne Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ted Oct 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This place... you can stay there. Great name. Real cool. Very "corey hart". Staff was very friendly and the rooms were clean. It aint the ritz but, nice, spacious, with optional kitchenette rooms that have full stove and full size fridge. ##### Ted Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Todd Oct 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place ##### Todd Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pablo Sep 1, 2018 #### Awesome Hotel Great experience with a very clean and fantastic amenities, nice hotel and parking spaces. ##### Pablo Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William Kevin Oct 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was what I needed for the time I was here. ##### William Kevin Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Les Nov 10, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very dates Motel.

Nothing major to complain about. People leave you alone. If you get a room with a kitchenette, they are super handy. Especially, to keep leftovers or to store groceries. The internet is decent. Overall a 8/10\. There was a smell but I think that is from the cleaners they use or that previous tenants have smoked and that is hard to clean/get out of the walls. ##### Sydney Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Audrey Jul 10, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness Saturday i ask the maid for some clean towels. She left the the female owner. Came back to the room and close the door no clean towels. Sunday check out was at eleven o'clock. 10:10 the female owner didn't knock open the door told me it was check out. I told her it wasn't eleven plus i was waiting on my car to come. And it was 10:16 a.m. and she took the key. Its wasn't nice at all. Plus i made my reservation it to paid when i made there Friday. They had already changed Friday on my card before i got there. Then i had two paid the second day before i got the key it was $97 and some changes but gave 100.00 and never got back the 2.80\. Will never go back there again. Was going to make reservation for September while i was there but treatment no way. ##### Audrey Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kalise Oct 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities \- ##### Kalise Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Henry T May 16, 2022 Liked: Staff & service It was the last motel available in the B.R city area (so many graduations at one time!) so I took it. The alternative was to set up 15 miles E or W of BR. Downside was low economic area; and noisy people in the motel Saturday night, ##### Henry T Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jak Mar 14, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This was the worymotel I have ever stayed in my entire life. I have never seen a motel without coat hangers and this was the case here. Never ever will stay in such a terrible place. You should have warned me. I find your system to be guilty more than the motel. ##### Jak Stayed 1 night in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jaleshia Oct 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Love it ##### Jaleshia Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller May 24, 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Dirty stained towels and the cover itch my skin very bad and the hot tub jets were dirty ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Arthur May 3, 2021 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Accommodation and Comfort There was no iron or ironing board to press my clothes so that’s the number one no no for me... Bed was not comfortable at all and the air unit was loud out of the ordinary. ##### Arthur Stayed 1 night in Apr 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jason Apr 28, 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Worst experience This was one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a motel I stay in motels close to 300 days a year because I travel for work. The lights in the bathroom didn't work and as I was showering the shower curtain rod fell off and I had to catch it. I laid down to go to sleep and people started barbecuing and partying in the parking lot outside my door. I called the office five times from 10 to 3 in the morning trying to get help in quieting them down. The next morning when I spoke to the manager about the problem he called me a liar and told me none of that happened wow. ##### Jason Stayed 1 night in Apr 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ray Oct 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Clean hotel Service good But shady characters staying there ##### Ray Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barry Sep 29, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice place operated by Nice People Nice place , operated by Nice People.
