We didn't actually stay here. We will consider it next time we are in Lafayette. We went to the back porch and listened to two bands on a Saturday night. Service at the bar was friendly and efficient. This is a good thing considering we are older and in many places in college towns, older people are ignored. For such... More

If you're looking for something a bit different, this place is great. It's about as far from a chain motel as you're likely to find in the States - lovely period rooms and furniture, great communal spaces, nice friendly vibe and the Cajun Jam on Wednesday nights is wonderful. Not too far from town either - about a 10-15 minute... More

The space inside at the Blue Moon is very comfortable and it's in a great location in the middle of town. There are clothes cleaning facilities and a fully loaded kitchen. Out the back you have a great bar and music venue - one night we had a Cajun Jam, and when you meet up with the locals and other... More

Live music and the fact that it wasn’t a chain motel were the two drawcards for us. The live music didn’t disappoint; it is reason enough to stay here, and a great opportunity to meet some friendly Lafayette locals. We spent four nights in the Birds Nest, a very comfortable private room, spotlessly clean, good value for money and perfect... More

We enjoyed our stay here and would probably stay there again. It is a guest house and saloon which is what makes this such an unusual stay. If you stay on nights that there is a band your cover charge is included in your room price. At the time of our stay, there were 4 rooms ranging in price from... More

We picked this place because the saloon (that is the back yard of this old house) had good music which it did. The placement our needs but is really more like a hostle than hotel. We had our own room with a private bath but no ammenities come with the room - no soaps shampoos room cleaning etc. the room... More

This is a beautiful hostel. The house is cool, a relief from the heat of Lafayette with great furniture. We had the room off the dining room and it was very quiet. It was great having a shower with the sound of the band playing at the window. It is very clean, other guests were friendly as were most of... More

If you are looking for a cookie cutter place to stay with all kinds of amenities, someone to take your luggage to your room, matching towels, etc., this is not the place for you.

I did not stay here, much to my sincere regret! This is perhaps one of the best music bars in the country. Not to be missed, whether you love Cajun with a touch of Zydeco or not. A great mix of locals and travelers, all here for the music. An insignificant cover charge, cheap beer, dancing, no frills. It's a... More

Blue Moon Guest house is a lot about the music. It is a music venue after all. We went on a Monday Tuesday nights however so we missed it. It was a great place to use as a base for venturing out into Cajun country. The breakfast is more of a back packer's kind of arrangement with shared food available... More
