“Each suite comes with a fully equipped kitchen, which is great for longer stays, and I appreciate the 24-hour laundry. The business center access around the clock is a definite plus, and the pet-friendly policy means you don't have to leave your furry friends behind. While some guests have reported cleanliness issues, the hotel's location near LSU is undeniably convenient.”
