The hotel was OK. We have stayed in other La Quintas before and this one is the worst out of all so far... First of all, the ... room key didn't work, so every time we neded to go to the room we had to ask the people at the front desk to open the room for us... The room was nice and clean, but the bathroom needs improvements. There were mold stains all over the walls and ceiling and the bath tub was dirty. We washed it off with water, however, we shouldn't have to. Breakfast was very simple and nice.

Ford Ampitheater was right across the road. Walk, don't drive. Their parking is great getting in, but it took 45 minutes to get my car out of it. Horrible! Just suck it up and wear comfy shoes cause the mud will suck your stiletos right off your feet. True Florida.

Awesome location, Almost spotless rooms
Punk Rocker Jun 4, 2009
I was to attend a concert at the Ford Ampitheater which is right across the street. The hotel was in a great location. Needs ... a bit more parking, especially if you'd like to come and go during the evening and not want to circle the building upon your return. Hotel staff, especially the blonde maid, were very helpful and friendly. Desk was a bit slow and had to call the front desk to watch a movie even though the tv was set up to purchase movies. Tried to call the desk, but got no answer. Walked down and had to wait 10 minutes to get it activated because of another customer. The movie, City of Ember, was worth it though.

GOOD LOCATION - GOOD BEDS - GO AGAIN
PETE Apr 23, 2009
PLEASED WITH ROOM AND BATH. AS A SENIOR BATH NEEDED HAND GRIPS TO HELP GETTING OUT AFTER A LONG HOT SOAK. ROOM WAS VERY ... QUIET AND BEDS WERE COMFORTABLE. WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS TO MY FAMILY AS WELL AS FRIENDS. PRICE WAS REASONABLE. IF NEED AREA ROOM AGAIN WOULD GO BACK IN PREFERENCE TO OTHER LOCATIONS NEARBY. MANAGER SHOULD BE PROUD. ONLY DETRACTING FEATURE WAS A MAINTENANCE OVERSIGHT AS THE TOILET DID RUN UNTIL I ADJUSTED IT INSIDE. THIS CAN BE COSTLY TO HOTEL AS WATER IS NOT CHEAP IN FLORIDA.

The hotel was very close to the casino which was why we were there. Room was very clean but small. Breakfast was free but ... lacked alot in choices. Need more choices for dining near hotel and the pool area was right on the road which I really did not like. Ok to sleep but would not want to stay for long term.

Small and Noisy
Priscilla Jun 10, 2007
This Hotel is ok if you get stuck there overnight. Our room was small, and each bed had one good pillow and one lumpy ... pillow! One of the housekeeping staff woke me up when I tried to take a nap. The bathroom is extremely small and claustrophobic. The desk staff was mostly ok, but the woman they had on the desk during the day was extremely unfriendly and unhelpful. On the plus side there was a good continental breakfast and a nice outdoor pool. The location isn't too bad, right across from the fairground.
