Excellent value!
Pros:

Very pleasant staff. Breakfast was generous and tasty. Bathroom in the accessible room (with grab bars) was well lit and spacious.

After staying in another chain hotel in Central NE that was more than twice the price, I felt La Quinta offered very good value!

Cons:

Some people might wish for sausage or bacon at breakfast, which was not offered. Just biscuits and gravy.
