This is a good traveling hotel located perfect for my needs.

Positives: The location works well.

Negatives: If you are on the highway side there is a lot of noise.

Besides the terrible bathroom with uneven tile that was coming up and loose grout, the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night as well. Not a very good stay overall. Only up side was that the lobby was very nice and it was right off the highway.

Positives: The lobby was re-done and looked great.

Negatives: The bathroom was disgusting. The tile was coming up when you stepped on it and it smelled like mildew.

Overall we were pleased with our stay. The facility was clean and the beds were comfortable.

Positives: The beds were so comfortable.

Negatives: Location ...train tracks

Everyone went out of their way to say hello and welcome us, especially the cleaning staff. We were surprised to find a LCD television in our room rather than the tube television pictured in the photos posted on the website. The hotel did not have a fridge or microwave and much to my dismay no WiFi in the rooms, only in the lobby. The pool was closed.

Positives: Staff was very friendly.

Negatives: The pool was closed.

We only stayed for 2 nights and were overall pleased. The room was clean. Free WiFi with nice desk area. Flat screen TV. Grout around the shower needed to be replaced, looked dirty. We didn't swim in the pool, mainly because we didn't have time, but when we went and looked at it, it was dirty. The hot tub and exercise room looked nice. Complimentary coffee only available for a short time in the morning.

Positives: The lobby/business center was very nice; room was clean.

Negatives: Right off the interstate and very noisy; pool was dirty; grout around tub needed to be redone.

Access from hwy was good and close to restaurants.

Positives: Recommended a restaurant which was good-seafood.

Negatives: No fans in bathrooms, and no continental breakfast.

The updated lobby did not match the room. Room appeared to have water damage at one point that was not fixed or repainted.

Positives: Nice lobby and staff.

Negatives: Room seemed old and rundown. water stains on the walls.

The first night I had difficult to<BR/>find the hotel, due to its sign lights were out at 11 pm. I called for directions and given the wrong information from the front desk. I was given a room on the freeway side and it was very noisy. he front desk declined my request to move my room due to my booking through Priceline. I was only moved to another room after I threatened a complaint to management. The next night was not restful due to a train in the early am went right by the room, and the fire alarm went off due to a fire in the pool area. The hotel carpet was dirty and the elevator carpet was dirty.

Positives: I liked the rate. I obtained through Priceline to book this hotel.

Negatives: I was treated like a lower class customer.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 02 Apr 2011 rated 7 out of 10.

We got fair value. I would have been very disappointed if I had stayed in this room and paid full price. We were given a room next to I-10 and it was very noisy all night long. The hotel was not busy, and we could have been given a different room away from the interstate, but this was denied. We had no refrigerator in our room even though it was mentioned on its website and there was a space in the room where there had been a refridge at one time. Finally, our room was cleaned until about 5:00 pm on our second day. So, no I wouldn't visit this place again.

Positives: Location and ease of entry/exit to hotel.

Negatives: Road noise.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 22 Feb 2011 rated 6 out of 10.

Hotel was noisy, and there was no vent in bathroom to help out drown the noise.

Negatives: Noisy

Room furnishings and floor plan were nice. Bath colors beautiful. Great lamps on headboard and easy-access plug-ins around the room.

Positives: Room furnishings.

Negatives: No free continental breakfast.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 09 Feb 2011 rated 10 out of 10.

This hotel was very nice. The lobby area was very clean. We stayed on the first floor. King room. The hot tub has it's own inside room this was great since our stay was in February. Complementary breakfast would have been nice but they do have complementary coffee in room and in lobby. Overall I would say a great experience.

Positives: The hot tub room was great.

Negatives: This was an overnight stay. No complaints.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 10 Jan 2011 rated 8 out of 10.

Very nice for leisure travel. There was a Starbucks in the lobby but it wasn't open. The staff was very friendly.

Positives: Very clean and friendly staff.

Negatives: We were on the second floor and received a room without a balcony.

Courtyard by Marriott continues to be an outstanding hotel! Room was extremely clean. Large room. Excellent amenities. Staff was friendly and attentive.

Positives: Quality of room is outstanding.

Negatives: Internet access was extremely poor. Quality to low to utilize.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 10 Dec 2010 rated 9 out of 10.

Great price, very comfortable bed but don't get a room on the side of the highway, very loud!

Positives: Great little Deli in the Lobby.

Negatives: The noise of the highway, they need better insulated windows!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and comfortable. Internet was available in room (wired)...it was slow, but it was available!

Positives: Free internet access in room, comfortable bed and lots of pillows.

Negatives: Very LOUD train passes in middle of night!

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 16 Oct 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

The hotel is located between train tracks and the freeway. Either side is a horrible place to be. I asked to be moved to an interior courtyard room and was told there were none available. That may have been true the first night, but definitely not after that and we were there for 3. Pool was unheated and dirty. Lobby was nice but I am not a big fan of their new food counter. It's convenient, but I still like a restaurant and lounge at a hotel. One good plus was they let you in the fitness room for free which is hard to find these days. If you don't care about sleeping, this is definitely the place for you. If not, you'd better have some good earplugs.

Positives: Free fitness room.

Negatives: Dirty unheated pool, Internet broke down and

The hotel itself was okey. However, the workers at that Marriott hotel were rude and insulting. I will never go back at this baton rouge Marriott hotel at the Arcadiann center. Really disappointed. I have stayed at other Marriott hotel I can truly say this was the worse I have ever stayed. Workers were a living nightmares!

Positives: Nothing

Negatives: Employees

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 14 Sep 2010 rated 9 out of 10.

Typical Courtyard-that is to say clean, well maintained and well trained staff. A good deal.

Positives: Clean and quiet except for the 3 AM train that passed by.

Negatives: Only one restaurant within walking distance and no dinner in the hotel.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 07 Sep 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

The overall, hotel was nice. However, their seemed to be a problem with the house keeping. The soap in our room was open when we arrived. I called the front desk early on the morning, we were to check-out. They did not notify housekeeping and the lady kept banging on our door. This was annoying. After we extended our stay the hotel could not transfer the credit card information. I had to check-out and check back in. It was an inconvenience.

Positives: The location.

Negatives: The front desk personnel.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 04 Sep 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

The public areas look wonderful; the room is comfortable, limited dining options in the immediate area, but some nice ones further out. Courteous staff.

Positives: Comfortable room, friendly staff.

Negatives: Difficult to find with on-line directions. Once you find it on your own, it is easy to get around.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 24 Aug 2010 rated 6 out of 10.

Accessible to restaurants and smelled nice noisy.

Positives: Smelled good.

Negatives: Noisy.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 14 Jun 2010 rated 6 out of 10.

The public spaces of this hotel have been upgraded and are very modern, chic, and sunny. The rooms were typical of a hotel with nothing too fancy. My room needed some cleaning like the vacuuming in the areas under the desk and around the bed. In addition, the doors looked like they hadn't been wiped in a while. The toilet ran constantly so I had to shut the door at night. The large sliding door leading to a small balcony was nice and let in good sunshine. The beds were comfortable. Except for the late evening swimmers, the hotel was quiet. The lack of a free continental breakfast was a bit disappointing.

Positives: Beautiful, chic lobby, and snack area.

Negatives: My room was dirty with crumbs on carpet and slimy substance on bathroom door.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 17 May 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

The location looks lousy because it's right next to I-10, but if you have a room that looks over the pool, you don't even notice it. The lounge area is great: have an espresso and print out your emails, all the while watching the game on your own personal TV monitor.

Positives: Great lounge and business center.

Negatives: Location: right next to highway.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 29 Apr 2010 rated 2 out of 10.

The room was filthy. The toiletries provided were terrible and the soap was impossible to wash off. I had to rub it off with a towel after scrubbing my hands.

<BR/>

Positives: General location.

Negatives: Filthy.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 27 Apr 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

Great for short stays in Baton Rouge. 10 Minutes by car to Capitol Building. Clean with helpful staff. Co-located next to a good Chain steakhouse. Ask for room with a pool view. The noise from I-10 can be a bit much for light sleepers, so I'm told (I slept like a log as usual). Very cool decor and lots offer for the comfort and convenience of guests. I would happily accept another Priceline.com deal at this hotel.

Positives: Had everything needed close by.

Negatives: old TV - antiquated room entertainment No HD. Need check in direction signs posted in driveway - a little guess work required there.

This is my 3rd or 4th stay, the staff is always friendly and accommodating. Luxurious rooms. quiet. The new lounge/bar area and TV lounge areas rocks. This is my favorite hotel when I come to visit my son that attends LSU!

Positives: The bar area, the TV/lounge area added menu options.

Negatives: There is nothing that

Waited over 30 minutes for a chai tea. When I finally received my breakfast order, I received a coffee. I sent it back for correction, only to receive another coffee, which I did not realize until I was in my car, running late for a business meeting.

Positives: I liked the modern lobby and its conveniences.

Negatives: Staff was not that friendly. Service was very poor.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 10 Aug 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

The hotel was nice and convenient for where we were spending the day. The room was roomy and the bed and pillows were very comfy. Only suggestions I have is a small fridge in room and a couch bed for us folk with teens who don't want to talk must less sleep in same bed but luckily the beds were big so they didn't have to touch.

Positives: It was a nice and clean hotel, doubt that I would pay retail but then again I don't like to pay retail for anything, hence Priceline!

Negatives: I would like if the rooms had a small fridge, and a couch bed for kids.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 28 Jul 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Negatives: A little hard to get to.

I had a pleasant experience with this hotel. We came to Baton Rouge to go to Blue Bayou waterpark. The staff was friendly and the rooms were clean. The bed was unbelievably comfortable. We had a room close to the pool. When the adults were finished swimming, we could sit on the balcony and watch the kids continue to swim. We were traveling with family and they gave us adjoing rooms. I would stay here again.

Positives: The staff was very friendly and the rooms were clean.

Negatives: I had a pleasant experience. I cannot think of anything I did not like.

Negatives: They did not refresh my face towel, and coffee the next morning.

I would not recommend this hotel. It was loud. Had to go upstairs to get ice. Called the front desk several times without getting an answer. Had to finally call from my cell phone to get them to answer.

Positives: Plenty of pillows - feather and foam.

Negatives: Room was overlooking pool, very loud. Pool was open till 11 and had to call front desk to get them to ask people to leave.

This hotel was an average convenient business/family stay. It was clean and comfortable but no frills.

Positives: The beds were very comfortable, quiet, good AC, clean.

Negatives: We arrived late, staff was not very helpful, we placed a call to the front desk several times over a 15 minutes to request a wake up with no answer.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 04 Jun 2008 rated 6 out of 10.

Since the hotel was not crowded, there seems no other explanation for being given the worst room in the hotel: facing the nearby highway, next to an exterior exit and the elevators. Also there is no free continental breakfast. There are also no available ice machines without going through employees.

Positives: Cleanliness.

Negatives: Given worse choice of rooms.
