"Great Value"

Nice hotel and very affordable. Only a few exits from the Post which made it very convenient. The staff was friendly and very helpful in regards to information about graduation at Ft. Jackson. Parking is a little tight but it all worked out for us.

Excellent hotel! Friendly staff and updated clean fresh rooms. I have stayed at several La quintas all across the country and thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this one. The parking is a little tight but you are at a good location with plenty of eating places and easy access to the interstate. Will definitely be back soon.

This is a wonderful hotel to stay in. Clean, great breakfast and the pool was definitely a plus because it was hot! We went down for my sons graduation at Fort Jackson. The base was only a few exits away and the staff have print outs for directions to and from the base. If I am ever in the area again I definitely would stay again!

This was my first stay at La Quinta and the Hotel was good for price.My good friend had suggested La Quinta I was undecided at booking. Believe me she could not been more right about quality for price. I always look for quality first instead of price just ease my travels.

I will begin by saying the place needs a visit from their undercover boss! This hotel is fine as long as you don't sleep in a room that has fleas. YES, they allow pets, absolutely nothing wrong with that at all, but I am not a pet owner and I shouldn't be bitten by fleas while trying to sleep. The continental breakfast is joke, waffle mix or batter was OLD. And what happened to the Sara Lee individually wrapped pastries, I don't know how long the unwrapped pastries have been sitting out. Get with it La Quinta, there are several new and up to date hotels being built all around you.
