Clean, affordable lodging that is an easy drive from the airport
Fancy? No. Convenient? Most definitely. Located just off Exit 3 of Interstate-65, La Quinta Inn Mobile sits halfway between Mobile Regional Airport (seven miles to the west) and historic downtown (seven miles east). The accommodations are clean and basic, and the complimentary continental breakfast helps budget-minded travelers keep costs down (there is also free parking here). Various restaurants lie within walking distance of the hotel, and guests can drive to major attractions like Bellingrath Gardens and the American Sport Art Museum & Archives.
Highlights
  • Conveniently located between the airport and historic downtown
  • Free continental breakfast (waffles, hot and cold cereal, fresh fruit, and more)

Good Rate if you're on time

I had to travel to Mobile for a last minute family emergency. I called Orbitz rather that use the website because my arrival would be mid-night or later and I made the reservation for two days. I arrived at 3:00am, that following afternoon I was informed by the frontdesk that my reservation was changed to one night because of my late checkin. They demanded a credit card to charge for the second night that I already paid for through Orbitz. To prevent being billed twice I called Orbitz from the frontdesk and the matter was resolved. However it delayed me from seeing my sick mother for over an hour.

My regular hotel in Mobile

I've stayed at this hotel many times in the past. This time was pretty much like all of the others. The rooms are fairly nice, with just a few shortcuts on trim (which can be ignored). The biggest complaint this trip was that breakfast was pretty much a non-event. The juice machine was broken and there were only 2 cartons of milk. I couldn't get excited enough to do more than just grab one of the milk cartons and leave for work.

This hotel is right off Airport and I-65, so it is pretty much central to Mobile's shopping and nightlife. Lots of restaurants, malls, and stores in either direction.

Good Overnight Stay

The La Quinta was quite comfortable, the room was clean, the overall stay was nice. The price was very reasonable. I would stay there again. It was a stone's throw from several good restaurants.

My choice for Mobile

I had stayed at this hotel 4 or so years back, when I first lived in Mobile. This visit, though, went fairly smoothly. Check-in was easy. The room was located towards the back of the hotel, away from I-65, and I found it to be quiet. The rooms open up to the outside and there is parking along the building. The room was perfect for me. There might have been a few touchups that were needed, but nothing that would affect staying there. The location of the hotel is about perfect for Mobile - just across the highway from the main shopping malls for the city. Airport Blvd is the main East-West road, so it is easy to get around. And, oddly enough, this is just about the closest hotel to the Airport. There are a couple closer, but choices are fairly limited. I think you have to take a taxi or shuttle to get back and forth, but maybe I just didn't need to travel when one was around. The only downside was that the breakfast wasn't completely set up at 6am. There was milk, yogurt, waffles, toast, coffee, and such, but the orange and apple juice wasn't set up, for whatever reason. Still, I was able to get plenty to eat.

Nice

Very comfortable bed, very clean and nice sized room, we expected a pool but it did not look like it had been opened all year, we would have liked to have coffee available in the evening.

Great Contential Breakfast

La Quinta Inn Mobile was a comfortable room with very comfortable beds. The room was sort of small but it was adequate. The hotel is pet friendly and though we did not have animals with us I thought that was cool. In the room there was only one chair at the table and when we move the table by the bed we realized the table legs were not attached. We walked in wet paint in the breezeway upon arrival but the weather conditions were very damp so I am sure that is why the paint was not dry even though did not see any wet paint signs. The location was very good for us and it was near lots of place to dine and shop. The employess were very nice and treated us well. The conential breakfast was excellent. I will recommend La Quinta Inn Mobile to my family and friends.
