Great Overnight

Super fast check in. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was fine, and the bed was very comfortable. I liked the mini-fridge and microwave. Also the shower worked. (I've had a few bad experiences with poor plumbing) All in all, for the price, I would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for a night

This town has lots of choices for hotels. LaQuinta is a well known name. I chose on the basis of location and Brand name. It was fine, but compared to other LaQuintas, a small (1/2 star) down. Staff was great, room was fine, little things like limp belgian waffles, frugal toiletries, could have been improved. I do know that this is a college town, but the Professionals or visiting parents would expect more.

Good experience

With very reasonable prices, I did not expect too much. But the room was clean with washer and dryer available, and the internet connection was quick and solid. Unfortunately it is close to a busy intersection with many semi-trucks around but also with plenty of food places available. Other than that I have no complaints.

Go somewhere else.

No pillow top beds like advertised. Room rate was increased from online price. Staff speaks broken English. Very loud doors slamming early morning. Breakfast just ok. Not good for buisness travelers... lights in room very DIM. Heat takes an hour to kick in. Not comfortable. Old TV's.

Good for a hockey trip.

Room was clean and bed was comfortable. The toilet was VERY loose and wobbled when sat on. That was a bit un-nerving. I also thought the coffee pot (and I use that term loosely) was cheap. It really wasn't a coffee pot at all but just a one cup dispenser. My husband and I both drink coffee and I thought the in-room coffee accommodations were terrible. However, the breakfast was good and the staff was friendly. My son plays college ice hockey and we were in town for 2 games. The hotel was very close to the ice rink.

Great Experience

Great location right off the highway. Restaurants and gas stations close. Staff accomodating. Room clean. Matress fabulous. Quiet. Good breakfast. We needed an early check-in (1:30) and they accomodated with no problems. Would suggest to a friend.
