We stayed at this hotel on a stop in Lake Charles during the first week of July 2007. We chose this hotel because we had our dogs with us, and this hotel is pet friendly (with no extra charges!). The staff was very friendly. The room was adequate - nothing fancy. The room did have a nice big bed and tv, with a separate sitting area and another tv. This is a great place to stay if you just need a place to sleep. The hotel does not have much around it, but is a short drive from the casinos.
