Motel di Denham Springs

Horrible experience, I had stayed here before and with my cats and thought well I will try this place again. The owner was very indifferent meaning her attitude was like a roll coaster. When we checked in we were talking about how young my daughter looks, and I commented that she was young looking too and she and really liked that. Next day I said she looked tried, and then she said tried, don't I look beautiful. I said, yes, and she said, you are just staying that. Then she tells me we owe for our room we paid $145.00 we thought for two days and our account was charged $161.00. She would not look at our bank account and said are we going to pay for the night or is she calling the cops, and we already had a room booked for Monday as we thought we had sat and sun paid for so to not disturb our family we moved Mondays date to Sunday. When we went down Monday we had no problem for Monday to Tuesday she was not there so we booked Tuesday to wed, and then she was back Wed to Thurs and now our room smells and her cracked head acting white maid that lives with the maintenance guy on sight says it smelled. We asked her to come up, but she won't until Ms crack head told her to, but would not come in the room, and the cracked head white maid (aka Karen) goes it smells and would not come in the room and the owner lady told me that me and my daughter smell too, I never. I would not stay here they are not pet friendly some people who work here have mental health issues. Also, they are the only ones who will not open there pool and they refuse to serve breakfast cause of COVID-19 still and they have roaches

My stay here was interesting. I was visiting for a social event for the weekend. I didn't need to spend a lot of money; just somewhere nearby the location and a clean place to bathe, do some work on my computer, and sleep. I received all of these comforts, and I even went as far as wiping down my counters, toilet, TV remote and phone and there was NO residue on my disinfectant wipes. While my stay here was a little above average, there are some things that are subjective to my needs but also areas that need to be improved. PROS: - BUDGET friendly - Pleasant staff - Easy check-in - CLEAN room - In room microwave and refrigerator (with freezer) - Close to freeways - Short driving distance to places to eat and stores - Parking space outside my room - Free cable channels - CUTE kitty sitting outside my door (I LOVE cats!) CONS: - LOUD stench of cigarette smoke while entering/exiting my room - WiFi service is shaky - Unable to access the apps on the TV for streaming ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT - The cigarette containers, which are between guests' doors, need to be away from them. Those who don't smoke shouldn't have to smell it - I had to go to the front desk area to connect to the Wi-Fi signal - Connecting to the streaming services on the TV was impossible. When I turned it on, the different services flashed for half a second. I didn't reach out to the front desk because it wasn't a big deal but if this is a service, it needs to be easily accessible I believe if the above mentioned is improved, this could be a 5-star place. Again, this location is not for someone who is looking for special amenities but for the budget-friendly traveler. I also suggest not getting a room on the ground floor close to traffic. I had a difficult time sleeping but preferred that location for safety reasons. Also, ask the front desk representative if there are any rooms that do not currently have guests next door. It's not a guarantee that there won't be any noise but I'm a light sleeper and don't like having to sleep with my ear plugs unless necessary while I'm traveling.
