Bally's Baton Rouge Hotel
The casino seemed really nice, the staff were great. The rooms were not well insulated, I could hear everyone next door. There were no sheers on the window so it was either have the drapes closed, or have them open and everyone could see in while I changed etc. There was no way to turn the brightness ...

The room had a smell I had to spary air freshener every hour. I went to bed around 12:30 and felt like something kept bitting me under their covers. So I got up and went home. Never even stayed there 5 hours. A waiste of 132 I could have went to another hotel.
