I stayed at Econo Lodge Baton Rouge University Area. The staff were kind and welcoming, especially Mr. Omar, the humble manager running what seems to be a family-owned business. The room was clean and organized, and the area was quiet; suitable for rest or study. The location is convenient, close to marts, restaurants, and several universities. While affordable, several issues led me to cancel the rest of my reservation at this hotel. The "free breakfast" was just coffee and a few snacks—definitely not a real breakfast. One of the biscuits was so dry it almost broke my son's teeth and should be removed. Towels were very old and worn out, and one housekeeper lacked basic professional etiquette. In the end, thus hotel is economically great and is a suitable option for travelers who just need a simple place to relax for a few hours.

Was definitely not handicap accessible. There were only steps to get in front door with no ramps. We were supposedly in handicap room but there were no accommodations for handicap person to take shower. There was no water pressure in the sink. Could barely brush our teeth. The shower head ws brokeaand just hanging down in the shower. Works not recommend this place.

The room was very clean and quiet, but it had a very strange odor, not of cleaning but a strange deoderizer. The breakfast, biscuits and sausage, were in a container but were cold and hard, even the microwave couldn't fix.

Economy is what you get

This hotel is next to a strip club. Either very convenient or very worrisome depending on what you are into. AC unit was so loud you couldn’t cary on a conversation in the room. Was great white noise to sleep to though…
