“Courtesy should not come at a price!!!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2010

I recently stayed at the Super 8 in Ruston. I wasn't expecting much in the quality of room or the service. At $65.00 a night on a Friday and Saturday you just hope there are beds. In fact the room wasn't too bad for the price. Service was lacking but you can't expect much from a budget hotel in a small town. After all there is little competition. However, common courtesy should not cost extra. My best friend and I didn't not check in until 3 am Saturday morning and our check out time was not until Sunday at noon. Saturday morning between 8 and 9am we started receiving phone calls every hour on the hour asking if we needed our rooms cleaned. Even after I told them no thank you they still continued to call every hour to make sure and finally around 11:30 they knocked on our door. This was very annoying considering we had only checked in 5 hours ago. And if you are a light sleeper like me you can understand there was even more frustration

There was also no "Do Not Disturb/Turn Down Service Requested Sign" which may have mitigated the problem. I wasn't expecting exceptional service or a an outstanding room for the price we paid. But it seems that not disturbing your customers is a common courtesy that should not have an added price. The same thing happened Sunday but I had unplugged the phone. After plugging it back in the phone calls continued.

“Accetable Budget Stopover”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2010

person found this review helpful

We stayed at this property overnight for a football game at LaTech. The hotel is about standard for the budget level of the industry. We found the staff to be a cut above the normal at this price range though. They were friendly and helpful. One of our party is handicapped and they were very accommodating in arranging for a pair of ground floor rooms even though they were heavily booked for the game. The room was fairly large and clean although dated and somewhat worn. We found the appliances unplugged but functional when plugged in and turned on. The beds were small (double) but comfortable and the room was quiet. The ice maker was broken but the staff provided ice from their living quarters for us to use. The continental breakfast was acceptable. the hotel is quite convenient to the interstate and to the campus of LaTech. I would not hesitate to stay here while traveling cross country or when visiting campus again. The Waldorf it wasn't but it was a cut above my normal experience in this price range.

“Not good”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2010

Checked in late, got a decent rate of 60 bucks cash. After getting to the room, found hair in my bed, slept on towels laid on top of bed. Also, there we shady people hanging out in the area, which was not very comforting. I was on motorcycle trip with friend, would not have stayed here with my family. After touring 4000 mi across the country, this was the worst place we stayed.

“This hotel is okay. Not plush but not a dump.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2009

We stayed here for Tech homecoming because hubby wanted to be close to Tech. The location is great. We walked to the game and walked to Johnny's Pizza after the game. But, the hotel is only average. Do not expect top of the line. The hotel is maybe 20 years old. The rooms seemed clean and the staff was friendly. The rooms didn't seem like 20 yrs old--have been remodeled-- but a good 5-10 yrs. Still, no complaints if you don't think you will be at a Hilton.

“Bates Motel would be a better stay!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 July 2009

This room was absolutely horrible! There was a black ring aroung the toliet, insects embedded in the towels, hair all over the bathroom, and the sink was stopped up! We washed our hands in the sink and the water was still there the next morning! We refused to shower or even touch the walls.

At this point there was not much of a choice, so we slept on top of the covers. The office host actually came and saw the room; I documented everything in pictures to prove my point. I do not suggest you stay here if alone and definitely not if you have children. Approach with extreme caution as I would not reccommend this location to my enemy.
