Needs soundproofing between floors
Our room was on the bottom floor even though I requested a room on the top floor but we were only there for 1 night so I dealt with it. I wish I would have been adament about being on the top floor because any time anyone in the room above us went to the bathroom, you could literally hear it hitting the water. No, I'm not kidding, you REALLY could.

Sullivan's Steakhouse off of Exit 180 (College Drive). It's on Corporate Drive but it's around the backside of the building. Don't get discouraged looking for it because it's worth it.

Amazing customer service!
The front desk staff was amazing! The TV in my room wasn't working and the young lady sent up maintenance extremely quicky. He fixed the problem quicky and was very nice. Please thank the entire staff for making my stay so wonderful!

Oooo that smell!
The first room I went into had an intolerable wet, moldy smell, so bad that I had to change rooms. The second room also had the smell, but at least not as bad and opening the window kind-of helped. However, the mold in the bathroom shower that I didn't see until the next morning was a little gross- something I expect at a motel 6 or hostel. It was, however, in a very convenient place to jump onto the highway.

Visit to see family
Hotel was OK. Not the cleanest place I've stayed, but not the worst. Breakfast was OK. Waffle machine worked well!! Area around hotel was a bit rough. Was close to LSU and places we needed to go. Easy on/off I-10 and easy to get to the major surface streets/highways (perkins, highland etc)

My Stay at La Quinta
I really enjoyed my stay at La Quinta. The bed was great, room and bathroom very clean. How could it be better and keep the price attractive? A microwave and small refrigerator would be perfect. The free breakfast is nice.
