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!

Nice and Convenient.
All was well. Unfortunately, breakfast was cold and no microwave to heat up the egg, etc.

The hotel was okay. It’s a little dated…the room furniture, TVs and technology outlets could use an update.

This hotel is attractive and clean. The surroundings are very welcoming.
The staff is friendly and helpful.

We stopped at the Cook hotel and conference center on our road trip from Houston to New Orleans. The hotel is well located, in a really nice and quiet neighbourhood, in fact on LSU campus.
The hotel is very clean, the team is friendly, the breakfast is nice. Overall our stay was perfect! Thanks
