Second time was even better!

Our son recently decided to attend LSU and we were on a college visit. We had stayed at the Cook in the fall and found it extremely convenient. We offered our son to stay anywhere in Baton Rouge this time and he specifically requested a return to the Cook. I am so glad we did! Our flight was terribly late and we arrived after 3am. They had our room ready and the check in was a breeze! Big comfy room and a country buffet in the morning. So convenient and excellent staff. We will be back!

Great stay after a long check in

Room and stay was comfortable - had to wait more than 10 minutes to check in AND at the time I was the only one at the registration desk. There was no acknowledgment as to why I was waiting g for a while although two persons were behind the desk- and I prepaid for my stay online - help me figure that one out!
