“A Wonderful Stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2013

Our group of 52 people stayed here during the inauguration. The preparation was excellent and even our rooms and keys were ready when we arrived (a first for us, usually only a few rooms are ready)! The staff was great! Heather, Robert and Veronica were always available during the planning stages and were very helpful, friendly and excited about us staying there. The rooms were clean (in fact, the whole hotel was well kept) and the complimentary breakfast was good and the dining attendant was always helpful in making sure we had everything needed for a good breakfast. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone traveling in the area. There were plenty of restaurants in the area and the buffet next door was great with plenty of home cooked foods. Thanks again for a wonderful stay and we will surely be back!!!

“great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

This was our 2nd stay at this great hotel. We had the honeymoon suite. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone traveling by. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the whirlpool was awesome.
We will stop again on our next trip to La.
Thank you.

Room Tip: whirlpool suite is worth the price!

“Well Run Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 12, 2013

We have stayed at this modest, clean, well run hotel 8-10 times over the past 5 years. The price is good and they accept discount coupons. The neighborhood is safe and there are restaurants nearby that you can walk to. The complementary breakfast is good and the staff is helpful. The hotel was renovated last year.

“A Fabulous Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 3, 2013

I highly recommend this hotel. My wife and I stayed at this hotel for 8 days while awaiting clearance to cross state lines with our newly adopted infant. The eight day period stretched from Christmas Day to Jan 2. With nothing really to do but care for the little one, we had plenty of time to get to know the hotel and it's staff. As a pilot, I have travelled the world over, logging as many as 270 nights away from home in a single year. Never before have I experienced such an outpouring of service from a large commercial hotel. The stay was truly fabulous.

The staff went out of their way to make sure our needs were met. Some of the highlights over the week:
- Assisted in accomplishing many business-related items (such as scanning, faxing, mailing documents).
- Accommodated typical requests, such as additional towels, hangers, tray for taking breakfast to the room, etc.
- Accommodated odd requests, such as use of the lobby for celebrating a New Years Day meal with immediate family. Another was the use of the lobby for a small craft. This provided a much needed sanity check after so long in a hotel.

This is not to say the stay was uneventful. I noticed the kindness extended to my family was also extended to other guests. A snowstorm severely hampered travel during our stay and while in the lobby killing time, I overheard the desk clerk assisting many stranded travelers. In a separate instance, our room's heater malfunctioned in the middle of the night and we were given another room immediately. Every challenge presented to the staff was met with a personal touch usually reserved for family.

Most hotels these days offer a free breakfast, free wi-fi, free paper, etc. These are great add-ons, but rare is the chance to enjoy true customer service. This hotel has figured it out, and the difference shines. I highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again. Thank you.

“Just what I needed”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 27, 2012

I enjoyed everything about this hotel. The staff were friendly and courteous, checking in and out was a breeze, the rooms were clean with all of the amenities I required, and the breakfast had many options. The rooms and the decor look modern and well-kept although I think the building might be older and renovated.

The bathroom had a nice big shower head with great water pressure. The tv had the big movie channels, such as HBO. My only concern was that the pillows were a bit lumpy but this did not affect how I slept. The pillowcases had nice labels embroidered on the edge to indicate which were "soft" or "firm", but they all had the same consistency. At least they weren't down pillows; I really don't enjoy down pillows. I am sure that if I had asked the staff, I could have gotten replacement pillows, but it didn't bother me enough to say anything. Otherwise the rooms were spacious and comfortable.

This hotel was easy to get to from I-81 and there was plenty of parking. I felt safe in the area going to and from my car at night. Once in my room on the second floor, I could hear some of the traffic on I-81, but it didn't disturb me even though I am a light sleeper.

I only stayed one night as a stop over while driving a long distance. This hotel was just what I needed. I would definitely stay there again.
