  • I'm on another road trip from Florida to California, so I booked a lot of pet friendly hotels along the way, and my first stop is Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and I'm staying at the Jury Inn and Suites.

  • So far, so good.

  • The check in was great.

  • I was a little frazzle, though, when coming or driving into the hotel.

  • There's a lot of traffic around here because there's a hospital right next door and there's a lot of restaurants and fast food, so traffic is kind of crazy, so it was hard to make a left turn into here.

  • I had to kind of do a U turn, but then I got stuck in between lights and I was blocking traffic, so that was really stressful, but made it here safely, and check in was really, really, really fast and very smooth.

  • The lady out front was very nice and informed me that they actually serve free dinner and drinks from 5.

  • 30 to 7.

  • I think it waas and also free breakfast in the morning.

  • So I mean, free dinner is great.
