It is a older hotel but well taken care of. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Make sure you ask to be put in the back. The freeway can be loud. I will stay here the next time I'm in Austin. It's easy to get around from here.

North end of I-35, we checked in quickly, even a bit earlier than 3pm; Betty, front desk, best ever. We unpacked into our room then walked to the parking lot shared TexMex restaurant for lunch. This share is a pleasant stroke of luck and genius for La Quinta. The room?s a/c worked well, just the right hum to sleep to. Good bed too. We never heard any other guests or traffic. Breakfast is their (newer) usual fare. Check out, again Betty, was waiting on me WITH receipt. I choose La Quinta because they are drive up to the door convenient. I can't speak to WIFI quality as I use my device's service.
Vistoria Thomson at the front desk was really unhelful. I arrived w/o a reservations and ask her about their rate. She said it was $79.99. I asked her is they would honor what the lq app was offering which was $69.00. She said no so I booked on line (right in front of her using my iPhone). She said it was the same rate walk inn or using the app. When I asked her why she made me do it on line she said I did not tell her that lq app room rates are plus taxes.... When I tried to pay with cash she said the hotel did not take cash. I asked her if all lq had the same policy, she said yes. This is probably the 20th time I stay at this hotel chain and is the first time I have to pay with a credit card because cash was to accepted. I will find out but it is my impression that if I make a reservation the hotel would need to display this very unique payment policy. I have traveled to 49 states within the US and this is the first hotel that don't take cash. This is my second bad experience with lq. Let's make it the last one...On top of all the above the hotel is very very noisy. When I left for dinner I realized there are so many other hotels almost next door that are much better and about the same price. Don't stay at this hotel.
Your hotel was convenient and offered a great base for us to sightsee all around Austin and vicinity. We appreciated the friendly staff, clean room, good breakfast and good value. For an intense urban setting we found it very comfortable.
Bright Side breakfast was terrible. Coffee super strong. Go out for breakfast! The rooms, including the bathroom were clean. Beds were comfortable. Although it was directly under the expressway it was not noisy. We were able to get a good night sleep and we enjoyed our stay.
