Buchanan Lofts 403 South Buchanan Street, Lafayette, LA 70501

"A nice boutique loft inn with nine rooms. Everything is automated door locks or electronic and use a digital keypad for entry. Parking is assigned by room number catty-corner across the street. It's very walkable to the shopping and bar area on Jefferson."

"I stayed in Loft #5, and I haven't had a more comfortable stay in ages. All of the lofts are different as they are owned by different people, but Loft #5 was absolutely spacious, just what I needed and had everything I could ask for inside. The ONLY drawbacks if there were some was the trash outside the building door, the downstairs vestibule needs a little refresher (paint, clean floors), and the halls could use a vacuuming."

"I am a traveling nurse and rented a loft from Leah for 1 month. She was completely aware that I had 2 dogs and 2 kids with me. She yessed me on all my questions to get us in real quick. She told me neighborhood was safe and even told us about the cameras in the hallway for safety. The next day we checked in and my kids were both stopped in the parking lot by homeless for money. The code to the main entrance door is given out by residents to food delivery people. Homeless literally stand right outside the main entrance. We were not allowed to make noise. Even during day time. Leah called me day 1 at work that my dog was barking. I explained they needed a little time to adjust to the new diggs. That night at dinner i received another call about the barking. Meanwhile you can hear the rest of the lofts partying all night thursday thru sunday. Lots of little things not working properly in apartment. Neighbors complain over every single little tiny noise. It was an uncomfortable stay to say the least. At the end she also charged my card 2 more times for more money as she said the loft smelled too much like dogs. I specifically said i did not authorize any more charges and she charged an additional $237 total. This place might be great for a single person or a couple just looking to join in the festivities. But my family experience was absolutely horrible"

"I really enjoyed my stay here. It was a great price for a place with a full kitchen and a ton of space. We had some friends come by for a card game andhad plenty of room to have drinks before going to dinner. We were also close enough to all the best places downtown."
