    Clean and beautiful room with a mini bar which were decently priced, though through personal preference, the shower design is beautiful but we made quite the water mess since it doesn’t really have a door or curtain. Had to use multiple towels to dry it up. Loved the whole experience of the stay but that and no furniture other than the closet to store folded clothes

    It was a bar that had restaurants and a hotel.

    Everything about this hotel exceeded expectations! Every staff member, whether it was the pool, The Gutter, or the Diner, were extremely helpful & genuinely nice people. 10/10 experience!

    We had an amazing time after our wedding at the Lafayette.

    If you are looking for a night or two of one property that offers everything from a sports bar that has a two lane bowling alley 🎳 a separate jazz club with a nice super club, and a separate Mexican restaurant as well. It has a nice pool and pool bar, as well as a 24 hour dinner for the late party night. The rooms are clean and comfortable, it is set up more for the couple that likes to party, but it is still nice for all adults age groups. It is not for kids in my opinion at least small children. I have been there a few times and I will go back

    4 days in the hotel with no warm water for a shower. No acknowledgment from the staff to make it right either. They didn’t care at all

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    All in one getaway. No reason to leave the property once you get there. Great food and vibes. The staff is delightful. Can’t wait to go back.

    Beautiful hotel

    Stayed here with my girlfriend for a 2 night girls trip. The hotel is visually stunning and not a detail is spared. Check in; the bell hop was helpful. But there are no bell carts. There was a $38 per night parking fee I wasn’t aware of. At check in, the staff was friendly, but the woman who checked us in spoke very fast and when giving directions to our room was unclear. She also didn’t offer assistance with our large luggage and she did with other guests prior to us. So we had to lug the luggage down the pool stairs and go find our room. We didn’t realize there wouldn’t be a ramp or elevator. The double queen pool room is amazing and again, beautifully designed. There is no coffee pot, just a hot water warmer and instant coffee. But the front desk does have coffee in the morning and the diner is 24 hours, and it’s not a far walk. If you want a chaise by the pool on a busy day or industry Mondays, you have to save your chaise by about 6:30am. And they will only let you save it for 45 mins with a towel or items, so you cannot retreat to your room for more than that. But the vibe by the pool with the DJ was fun and we had a great time. There is poolside drinks and food. The service was spotty throughout the hotel. We had good service in some areas and not in others. So I’m not sure if they have continuity in their customer service training. The worst was at the Quixote restaurant and at times, the front desk. All in all a great stay, and would stay again.
