will never stay at another la quinta

My fiance and I came to huntsville to get away for a few days on vacation. We planned on making it a romantic trip, but wanted to save money on a hotel, so we chose this location @ $65 a night. The problems with it abound: -Poor staffing/ staff training: I checked in Sunday night but was not processed in the computer until Monday - Room cleanliness- Bootprints on bathroom floor, stains on carpet, stained linens on one bed - Room functionality- Lamps were not plugged in, 2 TV stations did not come in, Shower water never stayed at a good temperature for more than a minute. WIFI internet didn't work until final day of stay Room replenishment- Dirty towels were removed, but no clean were left in their place, had to ask twice for fresh towels. No extra bottles of shampoo or bars of soap were provided either. Service- Had to request twice for a stopped up toilet to be unclogged, and the staff argued when i went down to ask them over who would come and do it. This first required them searching for 15 minutes for a plunger, and then calling other staff members at home to find out where the plunger was. Asked for the stained linens on the bed to be changed, all the cleaning staff did was make the bed back up with the same dirty linens. Breakfast quality- not any real variety at all. 2 juice flavors, coffee, and milk. cereal, bagels, waffles, prepackaged danishes that looked like they would have come out of a rest stop snack machine, and hard boiled eggs that looked a week old. I did not see any fruit.

Good price. Pets allowed. Conveniently located. Advertised room as 'executive king,' but it had a double murphy bed. Other than that, great place.

Location was good. Personnel were competent, friendly and helpful. I would not only recommend this hotel but would stay there again. My expectations were high and they met them.

This hotel is always clean, staff pleasant. We like the area where it is located and the free breakfast. Most important...we can bring our pet with us!!!!

This LaQuinta lived up to the standard I have come to expect from LaQuinta. I consistently get a clean room, friendly service and a good breakfast selection for a reasonable price. Tourist advice: if you are looking for good quality and good value, check into LaQuinta.

It was an adequate room for the price.
