A lovely hotel on LSU's...
Liked: The staff was lovely.The hotel is clean and quiet, (noise level depends on your room). The first room I was given was near the elevator and a bit noisy-- and they switched me to a quieter room without a fuss, even though I arrived quite late in the evening. (I did have to pay full price for the new room. It was an upgrade -- so fair enough). The suite I stayed in was beautiful and well equipped. (No bathrobes, but everything else). Free parking for my rental car was an appreciated perk.
Disliked: The reviews talk a lot about the location and some are misleading. This hotel is on the LSU campus; it is near a lovely lake (for morning jogs) but is NOT within walking distance of anything to visit if you are a tourist not affiliated with the university. If you want to visit restaurants, cafés, shopping or do any touring, you will need a car. It is a bit isolated. (Though this is also a plus if you like peaceful walks). I did not meet anyone who was not affiliated with LSU. Also, the "hot" breakfast is not for anyone with nut or soy allergies. It looked delicious, but *everything* (sausage, grits, eggs, etc.) was fried in soybean oil. I really appreciate that the staff were honest about the allergens; they accommodated me by checking thoroughly on ingredients. I was disappointed not to have any hot breakfast, but grateful they were conscientious about my food allergies. Much appreciated! Do not pay for the breakfast if you have any allergies to nuts, soy, or shellfish. There is a sign on the breakfast table saying all the foods may contain those allergens. There are cold cereals and coffee as an alternative.
