Very friendly and informative staff. Ideal location to the downtown area. Parking is not ideal at all, the spots are small so bigger vehicles would take up 2. Our 2nd night we had to park across the street in an empty lot and walk to the hotel. The room wasnāt cleaned very well prior to our check in, there were dirty socks from the previous guests behind the door in the bathroom and on the shelf under the tv and empty cigar wrappers by the tv. The shower was clearly meant for small guests, Iām 5ā4 and had to squat down to wash my hair. Overall, we didnāt mind because of the proximity to the shops and restaurants but a bit more cleanliness and some updates would make this place great.
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!
Pool was clean and refreshing. Room had cold AC and was clean. I will use again.

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.
Room smelled amazing. Iād love to know what they clean with. Bed comfy. Ac worked so well even in LA heat I couldāve 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.

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.
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.
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.
