I booked this hotel last minute, as the hotel I had initially booked was terrible! Switching to the La Quinta Inn & Suites was the best choice I could have made! It was safe for a female traveling alone, clean, and close to where I needed to be. I didn’t use the pool but it looked fun. Would recommend.

We recently stayed at La Quinta Inn & Suites in Carlsbad and had a great experience overall. Our room was clean and comfortable, with everything we needed for a short stay. We did have a bit of trouble with the TV, but the front desk staff was courteous and quick to help—excellent service that really made a difference. The continental breakfast was fairly standard, but what really stood out was the gentleman managing the area. He was fantastic—constantly cleaning, refilling, and keeping everything fresh and orderly. His attention to detail and hustle made our morning start off right. Another major plus is the location—perfect for visiting Carlsbad Caverns. It’s a convenient and well-maintained spot for anyone passing through or exploring the area. Would definitely stay again!

Close to the Caverns but not the best option

Our room had some minor issues - the panel under the AC was falling off exposing wood and the TV reception was awful. We were travelling with our dog and they put us on the first floor in the room right next to the reception desk, the worst possible spot for a dog with all of the traffic and noise from guests at the front desk and breakfast area.

The only issue we had was being denied a rollaway at check-in for one of our grandkids. We had a very large suite with plenty of room but were told that our room couldnt have it. Not allowed in a suite with plenty of room but allowed in a standard room? We spoke to management the next morning and they sent one right up! Our grandaughter had had to sleep on the floor the first day, very ridiculous. We were double charged for our 4lb dog, but, it was quickly reveresed. At least we think it was. No receipt was provided. Gentleman working breakfast buffet was very efficient, but, at a cost. He was very grumpy and after everyone to clean up. minor problems, but, worth a mention.

Incompetent staff or thieves

Hotel looked new but staff are incompetent. Attempted to book through Wyndham site 2 rooms but would not let me, called the hotel directly to book and they told me to book through hotels.com. I had to check in online then again at hotel for both rooms each. Again to check out and was double charged for pet and early check in which they refused to provide and was supposed to be free. No soap or shampoo, lotion etc in room. Ask for it at desk. They provided sample bottles for two people but I had 4 in room. People partying at pool area and in pool at 3:45am. Very noisy in room. Took 40 min to check out. Discussed issues. They kept apologizing but it was not sincere and double charged me I feel intentionally. I asked for a receipt for which I discovered. They acknowledged Artie but the lady who first stated she was the manager admitted she wasn’t and was a trainee but no one knew how to give me a refund. The manager to texted by staff and said it would be at least Monday before they could give me a refund. That is two days away. My receipt stated the charges were “upsells”. I attempted to call manager but she did not answer. Wyndham corporate hung up on me twice from some foreign country without being able to get past who I was and verify my info.

So, so property. Clean, but dated and nothing special to speak of. I had called twice ahead of our arrival explaining that I would need an early check-in if at all possible and was lead to believe each time that could be accommodated. Upon arrival however, there was no urgency to make that happen and I missed an appointment because of it.
