Second time we've stayed here, and may be our new go-to stay when visiting family in Lafayette. In a neighborhood right off of the highway, so it's very easy to get places while still offering cleanliness, simplicity, quiet and seclusion

There was a couple fighting the whole night and the cops were called … The property did not do any housekeeping the whole 4 days I was there ( not even trash ) when we arrived they clearly did not clean the room from the person before us there was food left in the refrigerator!! Definitely don’t stay here if you like to be clean and safe .

It is good place, if you are looking for a stay, for a night or two,if you are passing by. Not luxurious but decent. Not sure about the area around. Room was neat and clean, good parking spots. Only thing it needs a new bath tub. Paint in bath tub was peeling. That the reason I would rate 4 out of 5.

Rooms looked clean and smell was good. Unfortunately the bed sheets on both beds were full of crumbs and dark hairs. We ended up sleeping on top of the duvets. Didn’t notice until midnight and office was closed. Very easy to hear talking in nearby rooms. Price was cheap and now I know why. Management seemed unconcerned at checkout.

The area was a bit sketchy, but I never felt unsafe. I was woken up several time during the 3 nights with sirens- which I know they couldn't do anything about. We didn't always have hot water. Which after being at a festival all day sweating and hair full of dust was irritating. The bathtub had been painted and was peeling. The room was clean, bedding and floors clean. Owners were very friendly and pleasant. Would stay again.

Overall very nice stay. Could use some minor cleaning. Ice machine is in an inconvenient spot. The neighborhoods close to the hotel look pretty rough. For the price it was a very good stay.
