“Great rooms for the price but move out of the way at breakfast time”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2010

person found this review helpful

This is a great hotel room for the price--the rooms are new and clean and the beds are very comfortable. The only draw back to this hotel is that the breakfast area is very, very small. Secondly, the hotel staff has to use the same microwave that the guests use which takes up the guests time when trying to heat indivdual plates. Also at exactly 9:30 the hotel staff is picking up all breakfast items, even if you are STANDING IN LINE TO GET SERVED!! Apparently the owners are very cheap, so you better get to breakfast early or you will be out of luck!!!

Older hotel but updated. Beds are comfortable, shower good, everything very clean. Breakfast was great, waffles and biscuits and gravy. I would stay here again.

“Worth the stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2010

person found this review helpful

I stayed in this hotel as part of an overnight business trip to Shreveport and then rural Webster Parish. The rates (rack and government) were not bad - $75/$85 for a standard room which had tv, fridge and microwave. The king bed is really comfortable and clean. The bathroom and tub especially was clean. Being the dead of winter, I was using the heat, but barely. Without the heat on, the room got cold quickly. But if you turn the heat on, unless you like it stuff and hot, keep the heat near the lowest stage possible. I kept getting hot and had to cut the heat all the way down to its lowest setting.
The tv got plenty of stations that were adequate for a stay. They even had ESPNU.
The hotel is in a great location, just off of I-20 in Minden. I found it to be fairly quiet except for the loud trucks that would pull in or out from time to time. There isn't much around it. A gas station to the north and a thing or two across the street, but nothing major. We ate dinner in Shreveport. I didn't really care for the continental breakfast, but I generally don't anyway. If I eat breakfast, I prefer a IHOP or similar. Or I just wait for lunch.
All-in-all this was an excellent hotel given the location (away from major cities). I'd stay here again. I'd also advise that if you're traveling and need to stop before Shreveport or coming out of Shreveport, this is an excellent stop to make. It's about 20-24 minutes outside of the city. Don't stay in Bossier City unless you stay at a casino. Those hotels are awful (nearly all of them).

“Decent hotel, but rates are high for what you get”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2009

person found this review helpful

I stayed at this hotel for business for 4 days. Although the room was decent, I feel that the rate that they charge for what you get is to high. The room was spacious, the air conditioning worked well. It is nice that all rooms have a decent size fridge and microwave in them. Housekeeping left a bit to be desired as there was hair (not mine) in the shower and sink area. The noise from traffic left a lot to be desired also. Would I stay there again, well yes if I had to, but will definately look for a different hotel first before I did.
