Very nice and clean. Staff was excellent
April, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A very convenient stay if doing stuff at LSU. The front desk staff was very friendly and quickly check you in. The cleaning staff on the other hand was very loud in the hallway way before check out which definitely does not give you the opportunity to sleep in if you wanted too. Overall a great location and would stay again if I had to wake up early.
Monica, 1-night trip

We love staying at the Cook anytime we come to Baton Rouge to visit our Tiger. It’s the best hotel in town, so it’s hard to book at times. Everything about it is fantastic.
