    I had a pit stop driving from Atlanta and needed a quick recharge before heading back home to…read moreHouston. As a Bonvoy Gold member, I received plenty of snacks and drinks as a warm welcome, which I appreciated. I do not often see hotels go above and beyond the way TownePlace Suites did. The rooms were freshly cleaned and organized, which was great, but the two air conditioner controls were a bit perplexing. I had to find the controls, though there was a note saying they were by the back of the window. Removing the redundant climate control by the front door would be useful and would reduce confusion. I had a pleasurable stay, and the breakfast bar was really good with a quick-make waffle machine and stellar options. I will consider staying at another TownePlace Suites property in the near future.

    I absolute love this hotel. Ayanna J. tends to be the usual receptionist that we see here every…read moreevening when we get back from bowling. That was the main reason for this trip. We are one family of the many thousands that have come through Louisiana to be able to attend and participate in the 2025 USBC Open Championships, a nationwide bowling tournament. She is so sweet and so polite. We asked her for many food recommendations, and all of the spots that she named were phenomenal. Now, we are not from here. So, maybe our idea of what is phenomenal to us may not be the same for others. But I can guarantee you one thing, The food places that were suggested to us not only served great food, but also they served up GR8 service. Everybody's attitudes were so enthusiastic and positive. Not to mention, we are in the south, everyone was so polite. There really is such a thing still as southern comfort and southern hospitality. We received both by staying here, at this hotel. This hotel was definitely clean and comfortable, well lit, and not super modern, but definitely not at all close to being outdated. I like that the pool area is open fairly late into the day and that towels and things are removed constantly. The restroom and icemaker areas are clean and kept that way all throughout the day and evening. The breakfast varies day-to-day. For example, yesterday there were waffles and breakfast sandwiches, eggs, bacon, sausage, patties, cereal, bagels, and other bread items available in addition to four or five may be different types of milk, and two kinds of yogurt. And today, many of the same items were offered along with biscuits and gravy. Nothing about this hotel has disappointed us one bit. All of the appliances in our room are in working condition. Dish, dishwashing detergent and sponges, coffee, utensils, some basic flatware, and other dishes of various types are available. There's also a long listing of different appliances and things that are available to be borrowed from the front desk. The one that really shocked us was a rice cooker. Room rates were definitely reasonable. And even more so now that I've seen the hotel, the room that we were given, all the things. You definitely get what you pay for. I have stayed in rooms that have costed four or five even seven times more than what I paid for this one and in comparison, while this one may not seem as fancy, it definitely offered more to me and was more valuable to me because I had all the things I needed to keep my family comfortable during this trip. Oh, and did I mention? Parking here is absolutely free. The hotel is very close to the freeway on ramp as well. That makes it very nice, on and off the freeway as we please very easily. Ever you were looking for a hotel in Baton Rouge I would stay here again, without question or hesitation !

    This was a terrible stay. It had hope with the beautiful French influenced architecture but as soon…read moreas you step inside the hotel, your hope diminishes. We checked in and were sent on our way to our room. The elevator smelled like urine. When we neared our room, we saw the maid outside the adjacent room. When we entered our room, the she quickly turned her head and asked what we were doing and that this room wasn't ready, but it was her sharp unpleasant tone that caught us off guard. No worries, I told her but to please contact the front desk. She said I don't know who told yall it was ready but do you see it's not ready? Anyway we made our way back to the lobby, got another room, got in a different elevator, and noticed the disgusting odor again. We get off on our floor and it smells awful like a ranch mixed with urine. The room also smelled musty and like a wet dog. We tried to look past that but then there was also a disgusting hair ball on the floor, stains on the bedding and curtains, and the just total ick. I give one star to the kind lady at the restaurant and check-in and for the view of the Mississippi River. Unfortunately we were not comfortable at all during our stay. We felt disgusting and couldn't wait to leave.

The staff was also super friendly. I love that they had a microwave in the vending room. That was super convenient. The only downside is that the valet parking was pretty expensive. They had me download the app which showed a different price than what I was charged. Overall it was still a great experience and I will be back

    We haven't been in years and many things have changed. The decor is still amazing, well kept and…read moresmells great. We ate at Bon Temps as they've finally brought back all you can eat now crab legs. We went on a Friday and waited in a short line when they opened at 4pm. After reading comments online we knew to get there early. It's not even Buffett style anymore. You order crabs and they bring you a bucket or pan with 3 clusters of legs, 1 potato and 1 corn cob. Now I'm not filling up on this sides cause I want my moneys worth. It was $39.99 a person for the crabs. The waitress would come peek and see if you was running low and then she would bring you another bucket or pan of crabs. I noticed that some people was ordering food off the menu so if you didn't want crab legs you wasn't getting charged for that just whatever you ordered. Again, no buffet! We was thrilled to have a much closer drive and it was also cheaper than where we've been going for years.

    I have been coming here for over 20 years. I was a VIP for many years all of a sudden they took…read moreaway the VIP. I'm not sure why. Say we have to meet a quota do you expect everybody to spend 50,000 a year, unacceptable. ! I played 1000 bucks the other night then the following day I was told I could not get the Tuesday gift. blender! It took a long time for them to answer the telephones. Another question I have for hotel management. I've noticed more dogs in the hotel. My question is do you have a floor for only dogs and the dogs in every room because I was itching a little bit and some people allergic to dogs I would suggest that y'all have a room and floor for dogs only and maybe an elevator for dogs. I know you're pet friendly but some people are not. Leads me to think why I was itching last night and rooms could be a lot cleaner ! if you're having dogs I would think you'd have an expert clean after a dog. since people have their dogs in the room on bed , carpet all over the ! it's what I'm stepping on. Just a suggestion y'all should have a dog floor a dog elevator. I know I'm not the only one disappointed with taking their VIP away. Maybe that's why it's a little slower than usual. Thank you in advance.
