Axel's take: 3.5/10
Airport convenience cannot outweigh recurring cleanliness and maintenance problems. A budget motel near Shreveport Regional Airport, scored for what it is.
This is a budget motel near Shreveport Regional Airport, not a dependable three-star stay. We'd generally skip it: Booking.com's 3.1/10 and Expedia's 3.8/10 point to problems well beyond tired decor. Free parking and occasional praise for comfortable beds and helpful staff are positives, but they do not outweigh the overall picture.
Recent Expedia guests repeatedly report poor upkeep, missing bathroom supplies and unreliable room Wi-Fi; a review posted October 9, 2026 reports roaches. An August 2026 guest described an empty, unusable pool and piles of drywall, despite the website advertising a seasonal pool. Construction completion is unverified. We'd choose elsewhere for families, work trips or anyone needing a reliably clean overnight stop—even on a tight budget.
