l really like this hotel, but don't plan on sleeping in. I stayed in February 2013, when visiting family. Only booked for one night, and at 8 AM on the morning I am checking out housekeeping came beating on the door to clean the room. Returned to stay in March, and at checkin asked the front desk clerk to notify... More

It was a cold and stormy night when I pulled in to this oasis of warmth and light. There are other cheaper hotels in Port Allen but if you want good solid Wi-Fi and strong cellular signal this is the place for you. Breakfast was good and the adjacent filling station has an extensive convenience store. Next to the filling... More

They DO NOT have non-smoking rooms! Even though your reservation might indicate it, the rooms are not non-smoking, they have only been treated with the "smoke spray" that wears off after you turn on the A/C (we moved from 205 and still had a toxic room 210). The tub was nasty and had been resurfaced several times (different peeling layers).... More

Room looked like it had been recently remodeled. Everything was clean and in good shape. We missed the breakfast; it only went until 9:00. Front desk was friendly.

This hotel was a great value after an awful experience at the Super 8. I was so happy to check-in to the Magnuson. There is a Waffle House, Subway and Walmart within walking distance of the hotel. Not to mention the rooms are all well furnished and breakfast in the hotel is good if you get up early.

This was my second stay here at this hotel. The price has gone up about 20.00 per night since last stay and this property has become the local contractors hotel. With all that said it is still a newly remodled hotel it is clean and fresh from head to toe. Price point even with the increase in price is still... More

We stayed at this hotel for the LSU vs TN game weekend and was treated very well. Any questions or issues were immediately addressed, the breakfast was a variety which was appreciated and the room was clean and free of any unwanted things. The location is excellent to the Death Valley stadium and close enough to various shopping and a... More

We were in town for an LSU football game. They allowed early check in which gave us an opportunity to get on campus earlier. This hotel was very nice and easy to get to. The rooms were decorated in a contemporary style. There was a flat screen TV, refrigerator, microwave, desk, and nice beds. The rooms seemed larger than most.... More
