The room was nice but very small and a bit rundown. Area was perfect for a LSU football game. I never made breakfast because it stopped so early. Room on the first floor was vey noisey and people were sitting on the bench right outside my room.

The Cook Hotel and Convention Center is an excellent hotel. The hotel has all the amenities, a good breakfast, and the rooms are large and well equipped. It is as if you are in a high-end apartment rather than a hotel room, equipped with a spacious living area, full kitchen and bath, and a divine bedroom. This is the place that you want to stay when you have business to do on LSU Campus, or you just want a relaxing place to see your LSU Tiger! So, don't give it a second thought, and book it now! You won't go wrong. The Zalis Family, Harding Township, NJ, aka 'El Garbancito Espanol' :)
