My husband and I recently reserved Evangeline Downs because we were in Opelousas for a relative's homegoing services. We were in the hotel from Dec 13-16th. The room was immaculate and the beds were very comfortable. The linen was extremely clean and the customer service was Superb. I would like to render an additional thank you to the General Manager Ronetta Sam. She immediately rectified an issue referencing the cost of my room. She exemplified great Customer Service while excercising EXTRAORDINARY Managerial Skills. Ronetta is the true Epitome of what a Leader should BE KNOW and DO. In addition I would also like to recognize Shantel and Aida, front desk reservationists who BOTH were rendered great Customer Service and Hospitality. Upon our entry into the hotel Both Shantel and Aida exuded friendly energy and professional attitudes, which is much needed, especially in this day and age. In my opinion All Evangeline Down Hotel Representaives DESERVE and WARRANT any compensatory award and or Valor allotted. Their kindness and professionalism was greatly appreciated. I would "HIGHLY RECOMMEND" this hotel while visiting the Opelousas area for business and or pleasure.

The room was not totally clean, the elevator sound like it was going to stop, and for the breakfast (their was no eggs or milk for the cereal, apple juice was diluted with water. One of the worst stays I have had. Would be a nice place if there was better management. Very un-organized

The property is not well maintained for the price charged. It was definitely not a $130 per night experience. The trash can in front the door was full. It was for sure before 9 pm. Why wouldn’t the staff get the trash at the entrance where guests come in emptied? The parking lot resembles the aftermath of a train smokers vent session. Housekeeping barged into the room while I was changing supposedly because we had checked out the room hours before check out time. The toilet didn’t flush properly.

There is not a positive aspect of this hotel. Upon entry to the hotel, you will find it smells as if it is a weed grow house. Rooms are musty and dark. Elevator made horrible noise and jerked each time making everyone inside gasp. Took stairs the rest of the time. Maids were rude and very unhappy when we asked for a new towel. Bedspread had stain. Paint chipping. Carpet felt sticky. AC is locked and too warm at night. Next door to our room a towel was pushed under the door to keep a smell out? Honestly wondered if this was a grow room. Would never eat breakfast there because it seemed improbable that it was cleanly cooked and put out. I honestly think this was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. Stay at Hampton Inn. Will seem 3 stars higher quality.
