No the hair dryer was filthy ( I had to wipe it off before using) and I’m not sure it’s ever been wiped down! Dead roach in bathroom floor and roach carcass in corner of bathroom behind toilet. Live bug, NOT sure what kind was crawling out of suitcase that was on the suitcase rack in room. The ac worked but noisy. On the positive side the check in was easy and friendly and it was very quiet.

I don’t often leave a review and I hate to leave a 10 out of 10 review but this property deserves it. It is a real gem in a small town in south Louisiana. Staff were very friendly and helpful room was quite comfortable. Parking was easy which was important because I was pulling a boat trailer. The hotel has an adjacent restaurant which was closed on Sunday sadly but was open for lunch on Monday. Never had a better Poboy. Definitely on my list for a revisit when I am in the area.
