"I booked this listing 2 months ago. I have used Expedia for flights & stays a lot in the past, so was not hesitant to use again. I never received any emails or messages about check-in procedures. Second clue this was a false listing was I could not find the property. The address number did not exist, it lead me to a different address. The listing outside picture did match the address, so I stopped. There were several ladies going into the property, so I asked them about their stay. They said...

Top Evangeline Downs Racetrack & Casino Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Lafayette Oil Center

10/10 Excellent

"Property is in a safe area, really close to"

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Scott Lafayette

8/10 Good

"My room was spacious and clean. The AC worked well, the bed was comfortable, and the room included a table and two chairs. The negatives: the toilet seat was loose and sliding. And the sink faucet was missing an aerator resulting in its water spouting uncontrollably in all directions."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Lafayette

10/10 Excellent

"We first stayed here 4 years ago and met Keira. We had been traveling all night and she arranged early check in and was just so helpful our entire stay. When we booked this year I hoped she would be there still and she is. She goes above and beyond to ensure guests have what they need, even personally delivering extra towels to our room. She greets you every time you enter the lobby and gives great suggestions on food and things to do in the local area when asked. The nicest and friendliest person to be the face of the hotel!"

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Opelousas

8/10 Good

"Due to the time of the year of my stay, there was a lot of humidity in the area, so I had to set the thermostat on the AC to 70°F on high in order to keep the room dry. Since there’s no carpeting and only tile and flooring, the floors would get very wet and slippery. I have a physical disability, which affects my mobility and I use crutches to walk with. When I informed the staff that the floor was too slippery, they quickly brought some towels to keep the floors dry until the room was dry again. When I checked in, I was informed that there are no coffee makers in the rooms so if I want coffee, I would have to get it from the lobby. Since I have a physical disability, they accommodated me by bringing my coffee to my room, twice a day. On the second day of my day, housekeeping came to clean my room and one of the housekeeping attendants removed the sheets from my bed, placed them in a corner, left the room, and never came back, leaving my room unfinished. Although the front desk clerk found another person to finish my room, I missed out on attending an event that day due to this delay. There were other days where my room was left half cleaned and I had to ask for extra soaps, lotions, and towels. Overall, it’s a relatively quiet place, the bed is very comfortable, the front desk manager is attentive and hard-working, and I did have a good nights sleep, each night."

Drury Inn & Suites Lafayette, LA

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is an absolute gem. From the staff to the hotel to the rooms to the amenities to the breakfast in the morning, everything was fantastic! In this hotel, we used the washing machines and dryers. So convenient. The room was very comfortable, the beds were amazing, the bathroom and shower were great! I highly recommend this hotel."
