We had an amazing time at the hotel, especially enjoying the proximity to the casino and racetrack. The mini suite was perfect for our large family, and accommodating our two dogs was a breeze. We loved the comfortable beds and the fridge for our snacks.
My kids wished there were more family-friendly activities available, especially around the pool area.

We had a fantastic time at this hotel, especially enjoying the complimentary bottles of water and the clean, spacious room with comfy beds. After a long day, we loved relaxing in the pool and jacuzzi despite the strong chlorine scent that hit us when we first walked in. The only downside was the breakfast selection, which could use some improvement, but overall, it was a solid stay! 🌟

The dining scene nearby is lit! The Bernese sausages had me mouthwatering, and the local spots really know how to serve them up right. The staff at the hotel were pure gold, always smiling and eager to help.
First off, the breakfast is trash! They gotta step it up. And can we talk about that elevator? It felt like a horror movie ride every time we hit the 2nd floor! Lastly, the pool's chlorine hit different—no thanks! I was suffocating after just 30 minutes.

Just an optimal selection for a weekend outing in Opelousas with reasonable price. The pool area looked fun, but it had murky water. Consider asking for a room right away since check-in may take a while.
