Loved my overnight stay! I was greeted with a smile and professionalism with that hard to find southern hospitality. Stacy was so helpful and had great recommendations for local food! The breakfast was made with love, would highly suggest the cinnamon rolls

My absolute favorite hotel in all of Ruston. I always look forward to a visit, because the staff really makes you feel like family. The front desk staff are knowledgeable of the hotel and surrounding areas, and offer incredible food and recreation suggestions. Any issue I've had during the stay was swiftly resolved by polite and efficient management, and any question about sales was handled with incredible expertise by the sales team! While no hotel is perfect, when I do run into an issue, the housekeepers acknowledge their mistakes, and fix the issue until I'm satisfied. All in all, this hotel is perfect for a trip, or event!
