7.8/10

The hotel's location was very convenient, close to Baton Rouge and the beautiful plantations of St Francisville. While offering tranquility and a good breakfast, it lacked fruit options. The rooms were mostly clean and comfy, but some areas needed better vacuuming. The service was a mix of professionalism and friendliness, with occasional attitude issues. The dining experience, though good, had limited breakfast options after 9:00. The facilities were well-maintained.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was really nice, near the Myrtles Plantation, which was our destination. However, the rooms were awful, definitely in need of updates, unclean, and had various maintenance issues. The service was a mix; some staff members were kind and polite, while others weren't very professional. Dining options were minimal, but the food quality was good. The facilities were lacking in some areas.
