Cleanliness
6
Mixed signals: many guests called the hotel clean, but a serious bed-bug incident and some floor stains were reported, lowering confidence in overall cleanliness.
Service
10
Outstanding front-desk service repeatedly highlighted—multiple guests singled out Tawanna for exceptional, friendly, and attentive care that made stays memorable.
Location
9.6
Convenient location right off the highway with nearby dining options; guests found access and positioning very favorable.
Room Quality
6.5
Rooms described as very small with limited storage and thin bedding; some reports of stains and the notable bed-bug incident negatively impacted room quality.
Amenities
8.3
Basic amenities generally positive—decent free breakfast, board games, parking, functioning elevator—but a closed pool during a guest stay and equipment issues reduced satisfaction for some.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed value perception: some guests felt it was a good deal, while others complained about paying for a stay where promised amenities (pool) were unavailable and about unresolved compensation issues.
Food and Beverage
8.2
Breakfast repeatedly described as good or a bonus; general comments on food were modestly positive ('food ok').
Overall Experience
9.5
Predominantly positive due to exceptional staff and clean, modern feel for many guests; however, isolated severe issues (bed bug, refund/points handling) tempered a perfect score.

Great Stay
Pros:

My stay at Tru by Hilton Baton Rouge Citiplace was exactly what I needed. The hotel was clean, modern, and easy to navigate, but what truly made the experience stand out was the service. Tawanna brought such a fun, welcoming energy that turned a simple stay into something memorable. She was attentive, upbeat, and made me feel right at home. I’ll definitely return.

Pros:

The location was great.Right off of the highway. And there's a fiery crab next door you can walk to.

Cons:

The rooms a very small,truth be told the smallest I've ever stayed in.There is limited storage and no closets so pack light.There were some stains on the floors,which wasnt a deal breaker but the bed bug I found while getting dressed the next day was.I quietly brought the video I recorded to management to not make a scene infront of other guests only to be told by the GM that I would get 10000 points loaded to my new Hilton membership.Not a refund, 10,000 points. My family and I check out immediately as it was our last day.I also NEVER received the points.I would never stay here or another Hilton again. We usually stay in Marriott's but this was last minute and we thought it was a great deal.NEVER EVER AGAIN‼️

It was ok
Pros:

I was very disappointed about the pool being closed the entire time, that was the reason of booking. We paid $300 and couldn’t swim and also told the front desk we were checking out early the night before and she didn’t leave a note. The system was down, so we couldn’t get a refund for 1 day, the lady who works day shift was very nice

Cons:

Made sure the equipment is up to par
