Smoke detector was missing from room - wires hanging from ceiling where it onc was. Entry door to room would not open or close without a handle d shove. Light around bathroom mirror not working. Breakfast - eggs over cooked. Lady at front desk upon checkin was very accommodating and personalable. Just not up to Laquita’s standards judging from other Laquintas I stayed in this trip. Would not recommend.

The hotel itself could use some improvement. Toilet was broken so we had to lift the lid every time we needed to flush. Comforters were stained with dried blood that had not even been washed, there was cracked tile throughout the bathroom and the curtains were broken. Fortunately, when we asked for new bedding, we were given clean sheets. We asked to switch rooms, but the one they moved us to was even worse, so we opted to go back to the original room we’d been given. We didn’t spend much time in the room so it was fine. On the bright side, the staff was friendly and the breakfast was good.

We were looking for a safe, pet friendly, secure parking hotel and the La Quinta checked all of these boxes. Unfortunately, the hotel itself was outdated and unclean. The rooms had mold in the bathroom, a cracked ceiling where the upstairs bath must've flooded, and stains everywhere from the bed sheets to the picture frames. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful in getting the bedding changed out. I would stay here again, but for $89 I definitely got an $89 room.

Not worth it!

We checked in to our room and I immediately noticed the room was not clean. The carpet was old and dingy and was not vacuumed correctly. The bed comforter had big visible stains on it and the furniture was also old and worn out. We asked for another room and they did not have one available. We asked for a refund and they said I had to contact hotels.com for it. I immediately got in contact with someone online and they said I had to wait until they talked to the supervisor at the hotel. Both have refused to refund me the money. I even purchased insurance on this trip and nothing can be done...well so they say.

We love La Quinta for being pet friendly and making it super easy to check in with pets. Other reviews mention imperfections here and there. While they are not wrong, this hotel fits every need. Five stars all-around for that. The included breakfast is perfectly suitable. It's walking distance to Jorge's Mexican food (steak chimichanga with red and green sauce). It's a 10 minute drive to Grindstone Lake, midtown and the dog park. We'll stay here again.

Bathroom was rundown. Broken tiles, peeling bathtub, rusted toilet and mold. AC unit was very noisy and did not cool as it should. Chose it because of the price, never again. Go with the Hampton Inn next door.
