Colonial Inn Hammond

Next to a druck stop

Location was great. I slept well.

It was a little noisy.

Quietness

I rented another room with two beds. Initially, I told the manager I had a room (pre-paid), but I just needed an extra bed, and he told me to contact Booking.com to cancel the other room. I did, he said he would refund the room afterwards, and out of the $136, he only returned $106. Not a good feeling about this place after this. So he charged me a fee to cancel the first room and then rented another room for $198 for the two beds. I feel like this was a double-dipping into my funds. He ended up making more money on the stay. He could not speak English well, so miscommunication could be part of the problem. But as a businessman concerned about expenses, this is not an excuse. Would I stay here again, NO! This hotel was so scared that they were going to lose money that they would rather take money from their out-of-town guests.

Great value, easy to jump off the interstate, many food options nearby. Basic room, everything worked, strong water pressure, good lighting. Furniture was old but sturdy.

I saw a single dead roach behind the ice bucket. Better than a live one I guess.
