They provide everything you need and more! Water pressure in our room not the best but not the worst I've ever experienced.

Nice, clean, quiet property. Bed was comfortable. Hotels in Lafayette are generally overpriced but this was a good property.

Shower didn’t flow, water came out of faucet instead of shower head. Pillows on bed needed to be replaced. They smelled like scalp body odor.

The whole front desk area was disgusting and the staff where unkept and unprofessional! Upper management needs to pay a visit! The lobby smelled like bleach and funk mixed together. I m assuming they are short staffed especially with maids since I saw I believe the night manager and one of the front desk people making up beds.Rooms needed to be better cleaned. Lights didn’t work

Updated contemporary extended-stay facility-- functional rather than fancy. Large gym, free laundromat, large desk area for workspace. Kitchen well-equipped for a short stay: regular fridge, 2-burner stove, dishwasher. Let us change rooms when AC in first room too noisy for sleep.

Pleasant stay
Hotel must have had a recent update. Room very up to date, clean & new kitchen. Well stocked. Comfortable furniture. Only issue was the bed seemed older, lumpy with “body-sized valley”, ripped bottom lining visible under bed.

Though we only stayed for one night, it was very comfortable and affordable. It was a bit confusing to find the entrance—it faced the interstate, had no overhang, and was not labeled.

Great hotel
Had a great one-night stay. We stayed in a very clean, spacious double bedroom. The kitchenette was convenient and the bathroom was very nice too. Our room faced the highway and parking lot, but the comfort of our bed overshadowed the noise and light. Overall, 9.5/10!

Check in was slow. The room itself was fine. More suited to someone for a extended stay. Full size fridge, dishwasher, counter top burners, etc. On two occasions I noticed a lack of hot water while showering.

Response from Jennifer - General Manager on 13 Apr 2022
Evan, I'm so sorry to hear that you didn't completely love your stay. I do recall we had computer issues at the time of your check-in and it was indeed frustrating and you waited far longer than you should have had to. I hope you give us another shot again soon at showing that this is not a normal check-in process for us. Guest services are something we hold at a very high priority. Thank you, Jennifer

Noah, I'm very sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your stay. We actually painted all of the interior of the hotel, including the pool, over the last 2 weeks. I hope that in the future you'll give us another shot and will be able to enjoy the recent upgrades. Thank you!

Check in lady was very nice. The hotel was a mess. It was very dirty and so much construction. Smoke alarms were covered up by plastic. The elevator alarm kept going off, fire department had to come. Had to use stairs and we were on the 4th floor. No vending machines, no ice, no snacks available.

Jodi, While I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed your check-in process, I'm saddened to hear that you did not enjoy the rest of your stay. Unfortunately the hotel is not 100% put together, because of necessary construction. It's a difficult process to keep up with, but I hope you give us a shot once again to see how beautiful it turns out once it's finished! Thank you, Jennifer, GM

The halls smelled very bad. We could smell it in our room. There were stink bugs in the room. We had to kill 8 to 10 bugs. They were crawling everywhere and one climbed on my husbands neck when he was sleeping. I had to pull hair out of the bathroom drain because the water wouldn't drain. It was disgusting. Staff was great, friendly and accommodating.
