When the doors down the hall slam shut it is very loud. A rubber pad might help. Breakfast was limited in number of choices, and those few choices ran out quickly.

We love staying at the Cook anytime we come to Baton Rouge to visit our Tiger. It’s the best hotel in town, so it’s hard to book at times. Everything about it is fantastic.
