We had another great stay at The Cook. It is so convenient for visiting our daughter on the LSU campus. Clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. We absolutely love the LSU store across from the main desk. It is a hidden gem for LSU fans. The gentleman who worked there was also extremely kind and helpful. We would recommend staying at The Cook if you’re ever in the area.

The desk staff were very rude when we checked in, a lady named Kay Hill, ignored us (and several other patrons) for several minutes while having a personal phone conversation. Our hotel room had no shower curtain and the sink was damaged, but the room was clean and bright. The hotel’s location is wonderful and well worth some minor inconveniences.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were very polite - but at check-in would have appreciated being told about amenities, eg breakfast, bar times , food, pool … instead nothing .. just given key to room and asked for card - i had to ask everything and was given very vague information. I’m sure its not normal protocol as most are probably return customer - but it would be nice to be offered information instead of having to ask everything …
