Great stay after a long check in

Room and stay was comfortable - had to wait more than 10 minutes to check in AND at the time I was the only one at the registration desk. There was no acknowledgment as to why I was waiting g for a while although two persons were behind the desk- and I prepaid for my stay online - help me figure that one out!

Great Service and Cleanliness

Very clean, and very accommodating. The concierge was extremely helpful and informative. I loved that my daughters and I had access to the LSU Rec Center. The pool was wonderful! I would definitely stay here again.
