Indian management running property, The worse La Quinta experience, unhygienic, stained carpet, switches, toilet, broken lobby. Breakfast has only items bread, waffle. No eggs or any protein. Smelly and pools are not operational. Not worth a stay.

Took one look at the room and left

The property and room were old, dank and dirty. Looked at the room in hopes it would be a little better, but it was not. We left without staying and drove the rest of the way home.

This is an old LaQuinta in need of refreshing & upgrades. New paint would do wonders as well as new bathroom fixtures…the tub was in dire need of resurfacing. The staff seemed new at hospitality and short-staffed. A nice breakfast but needed to be monitored and kept cleaned up.
