Cajun Inn

What guests think

Across recent reviews of Cajun Inn, guests frequently report serious cleanliness and maintenance problems—recurring roaches, some bed bug reports, stained or torn bedding, and visible water damage—while a smaller number highlight friendly staff or acceptable value.

Service feedback is mixed, with praise for some helpful front-desk and housekeeping staff, but many complaints about rude or unresponsive management, rooms not ready at check-in, difficulty obtaining towels or refunds, and one last-minute reservation cancellation. Room comfort and amenities are inconsistent: some note working air-conditioning, while others report poor heating, missing pillows or blankets, and a report of nonfunctional Wi-Fi. Impressions of the surroundings vary, with a few guests describing sketchy activity outside and safety concerns, while one appreciated being close to a store. Expect a very budget stay with significant trade-offs.

The blonde lady at the front desk who checked me in was so nice and accommodating! Friendly and helpful. She got me a clean blanket out of the dryer because my room had no blankets or pillows. You get what you pay for and this room had a lot of water and ceiling damage. No working smoke detector. I did not see any bed bugs so that’s great but there were blood stains on the mattresses, sheets and floor. AC works GREAT I was so pleased with that. Bathroom was clean! Saw a roach that morning getting out of bed so that was gross and it did smell overwhelmingly OG cigarettes. It made do for an emergency stay.

It was infested with roaches. When I let management know she did absolutely nothing. I checked out the next day at my loss. I would never stay there again, even if I was paid a million dollars.

The hotel is run down, electrical , equipment and bathrooms needs a lot of work. Hotel needs to be fumigated for roaches. Bed needs to be changed out and sheets needs to be replaced right a way. The air conditioning is very bad. The unit barely working. The people tried to made the stay better.

Not the best place to stay but not the worst… would not recommend for solo travelers or families etc…. Hotel had hourly rates, no clean linens, pillows, tv looked like someone tried to steal it and got broken, no microwave etc….. there was blood found on the comforter of one of our beds. No fitted sheets on the beds…. Not sure if this hotel was recently reopened or what but definitely has its issues

Made a reservation with Cajun inn the week before my trip for doctors appointments and one day prior to going on my trip was sent an email telling me they couldn't honor my reservation without giving me a reason why. Had to postpone trip because the search for another room that was within my price range was fruitless.

If you’re stopping here to actually rest, keep going! Pillows suck, not sleep worthy at all and are so scarce here. One staff person in particular keeps up as much noise overnight as the guest that NEVER SLEEP. You’ll get a daily unwanted alarm long before you plan to wake up or check out from the owner’s dog plus a dog that belongs to a guest that lives here. I had to go get my own towels to be able to bathe because the staff had to go find towels. Depending on what day/night you stay there might be children running around outside FREE with no parental supervision. One of the staff members brings her kids to work, puts them in an empty room and works while they keep up so much noise that you’d think it was four children instead of two little girls.There is ALWAYS trash on the property and plenty of dog poop at your front door, if you’re not watching where you’re going you’re sure to step in some at some point. The price of these rooms for the amount of inconvenience should be way lower than what they charge especially since the property value has gone down dramatically. I mean, the property was purchased in the early 2000’s for over a million dollars and now it’s valued at $200,000 and that itself is an eye opener. Last but not least, some weekends the owner will shut the room availability OFF for Friday and Saturday so they can make full profit but they tell the staff to tell the guests that the Expedia website is messed up and there’s nothing they can do about the issue.

This place was so sketchy, we were afraid to stay here. Expedia usually has quality facilities, they need to take this hotel off their site. Was so bad we were willing to lose our money to feel safe.
