The Juliet Hotel

What is this place even? It’s technically a hotel, but I’m pretty sure I was the only person staying there — maybe one other guest at most. “Creepy” is honestly the best word for the experience. The front door closes and locks at 7pm, and no staff appear again until around 9am. Instead of guests being able to use a keycard at the main entrance, you have to go through a back parking lot, down a strange alley, and enter through the rear door. It felt unsafe and unnecessarily unsettling, especially at night. It’s odd that they haven’t figured out a better after-hours entrance system. The room itself was okay — a little grungy, but the bed was comfortable and the AC worked well. Still, I really didn’t want to leave the room once I was inside. The location is convenient and centrally located downtown, which is probably the biggest positive. But for such an interesting small city, Lafayette deserves much better accommodations than The Juliet. I’m genuinely glad to hear a new hotel is coming to town.

Cold a/c in room with very nice bathroom! Very friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again. Very convenient to lots of activity, food, and fun downtown!

Perfect location. Dim lighting in the rooms but comfy space.

The only thing positive I can say was at least the sheets were clean. There were no housekeeping services. Electrical switches and outlets were mismatched or missing. The small pool looked toxic, and there were trash and cigarette butts in all outside areas. The parking lot was not secure. The interior of the hotel, particularly the gathering space on the second floor contained old and very dirty furniture. The hotel is on a loud and busy street. There was no assistance with baggage , basically no amenities. I cannot recommend that anyone stay at this hotel.

They lock the front door at 7 which should tell you something. And after the first day we never saw another staff member even at the front desk. Common areas stink of industrial cleaner and the room is dank and musty. There were so many things broken in the room they aren’t worth mentioning. No coffee pods. I couldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
