TownePlace Suites by Marriott Baton Rouge South

The hotel was clean, the pool had great hours. Service was good.

We stayed here because I read a couple reviews and they were good and the pictures looked nice and mostly for the indoor pool. Which was the highlight of the hotel. The pool and spa were really nice. The "full kitchen" was a small stove top with no oven and a microwave and refrigerator. Really thought I saw an oven in the pictures. The bed was smaller than expected. The bathroom was nice and the room was nice. But for $169 a night I could've stayed somewhere cheaper that was just as nice if not better. The hotel is kind of off the beaten path and could use some upgrades. The "free" breakfast was not much to it. All they cook is nasty looking fried eggs and turkey sausage. Then you can cook your own waffles or bagel or toast. Not what I am used to when someone says free breakfast. Overall wouldn't stay here again for the price. This is about a $90-100 hotel at most.

This hotel in its current state is extremely dated. The furniture and appliances needs to be replaced. The over in my room was rusted, the refrigerator ice maker didn't work, the noise level at this hotel is horrendous the least to say. You can hear everyone walking above you and up and down the stair case. By far not my best stay in any hotel.

The check in was great and I had to unexpectedly bring a pet. I mentioned to clerk and she said it was ok and there was a $100 non refundable deposit. We get checked into room and all information in room says pet deposit is $75. Large hole in carpet in center of room and toilet ran all night long because of broken flush mechanism. The ac worked great and the room was mostly clean but outdated and worn out. Stove in room was filthy and I had to wipe fridge out upon my arrival. The pool was wild the entire weekend with people that were not staying at the hotel but "friends" of people that were so whatever I guess. My kids and I opted to stay away from pool party which was really unfortunate for them as they really wanted to swim. Overall a very forgettable experience and we will never stay again.

Great stay with awesome front desk clerk and housekeeping gave us everything we had forgotten. Loved it and will go back!!
