REVIEW OF LA QUINTA HOTEL
Pros:

Quiet,clean and reasonably priced. Takeout foods nearby with minimal seating for guests. Pool and spa area worked. Continental breakfast was excellent. Staff were excellent to our needs. Lots of parking.

Cons:

The bathroom should have more safety bars for accessing and exiting the bathtub to facilitate seniors.

Pros:

The breakfast was delicious and the overall experience was pleasant, the beds were clean and comfortable the AC worked fantastic. We didn't use the pool or gym laundry etc .

Cons:

The SMELL, i don't know what it was but it was very strong and unpleasant, it gave my sister a headache. It wasn't as strong in the room thankfully, but it was very strong in the hallways especially on the second floor - it may have been something as simple as you changing your carpets or paint, but it was very strong

Unacceptable.
Pros:

Lobby and staff were fine.

Cons:

Our room was awful. There was 2 large stains on the old chair next to the lamp. The king bed mattress was completely mushy. My husband sat on it and it completely sunk in. We checked in, went up to are room, were horrified and then went downstairs and checked out.

This is the most filthy hotel experience we have ever had.
Cons:

We were certainly fooled by the good reviews. The first room we checked into had chewed tobacco everywhere, including on the bed, piles of trash and cigarette butts, urine and pubic hair on the toilet and just general grime everywhere. We asked to change rooms and they did put us in a new room. Thankfully it did not have chewed tobacco everywhere but it was still covered in dirt, dust, and mysterious liquid splatters. We were traveling with a small child and couldn’t feel safe to set her down in the room. We couldn’t check out fast enough the next morning, it is certainly the most disgusting hotel experience we have ever had.

It was ok.
Pros:

. Beds were very comfy

Cons:

There were a lot of smudges and hair on the walls. There was a smear of blood next to the toilet.
The bottom of the mini fridge was full of dirt and dust. Our room also smelled like cigarette smoke. If this was a smoking room, it would have been nice to be given the option of a non smoking room
