Id do it again if I was guarannteed a ground floor room.
Pros:

Breakfast was great. Very pleasant area!

Cons:

was notified that I would have a room on the ground floor due to using a cane. When I got there I was given a 4th floor room. It was difficult for me negotiating the elevator.

Wouldn’t stay here again
Pros:

The room was spacious, and the common areas were well kept and welcoming looking. The staff at check in were friendly.

Cons:

Let me preface this by saying, we’re from the area (Olympia) and have recently moved. We were staying at the LaQuinta while visiting our daughter. I chose this hotel because it had good reviews, and I wanted to avoid any hotels that were adjacent to the homeless encampment in the Lacey/Olympia area. I don’t know who has been reviewing this particular property, we had a very different experience.

To start, the paint on the inside of the bathroom door was peeling off, and looked like it had suffered some serious water damage. The tub and sink had terrible rust stains that looked like mud had been smeared all along the bottom of the tub. The bathroom also smelled like it had water damage.

The bed was extremely uncomfortable- hard and lumpy. I don’t know if I would have been able to get any sleep on it, though, because other guests congregating and talking and laughing loudly in the hall just outside of our door kept us up pretty much all through the night. They seemed to all be hanging out and drinking, and were staying in a room across from us. They were going in and out, slamming the doors, and a call to the front desk about it didn’t do much to help. I got no sleep, and had to drive all the next day. There seemed to be a lot of rough folks around the property at night , as well. Lots of smokers hanging out outside the main entrance doors. It didn’t feel super safe.

Pros:

The room we got for our family of 5 wasn’t big enough for 5. I thought we had a pull out couch in addition to two queen beds.

Cons:

The room wasn’t very clean. There weren’t any towels at the pool. The staff member was very put out when we asked for towels. The pool was freezing. Just a terrible experience overall.

Pros:

The staff was great.
The rooms looked clean, but I did see a old brush behind the dresser.

Cons:

The beds were uncomfortable and the pool was freezing.
Maybe this is the case you get what you pay for, but it really wasn't that cheap for 1 night it was. $161 for the night.

Have a talk with your maids!
Cons:

Our bed had a very large urine stain from a dog hiking on the bed! The front desk was very helpful with the situation, but we were very disappointed since we had stayed here before. I used to be a maid. The hotel maids need to change the mattress cover after every single guest! We were told there was a dog show about two weeks ago which means that mattress cover hadn’t been changed in two weeks. That’s disgusting.
