"Second time staying at this Staybridge location. Attended the Brooks and Dunn concert at the cajundome. Wasn’t a bad location as far as the distance to the cajundome goes. Had another great stay. Room was clean, bed and pillows were comfy. Didn’t eat breakfast. Will definitely consider staying at this location when I’m back in the Lafayette area."
