"Disappointing"
1 of 5 stars Reviewed May 15, 2013

My husband and I stayed here for a wedding, although the location is fantastic and close to everything, the hotel is seriously outdated. Looking back on it, we wished we would have payed a little more to stay somewhere nicer. Some of my complaints were how noisy the hotel itself was, you could literally hear everything outside and the air conditioner unit didn't allow you to keep it on constantly, which was unpleasant, because it was literally the only thing that shut out all the noise from outside. The room itself was very dated and we had to call twice for anyone to come and clean our room and replenish the towels. I've stayed at La Quintas before and this is honestly the first time I've ever felt the need to complain about one of their locations. I feel like they have such a great location and they could do so much more with the hotel, but this is crap and the prices for what you get are crap. I don't think I will ever bother staying at another La Quinta again.

- My AC was extremely loud. I called about it and they fixed it pretty quickly. so kudos for that. -However, this left a big dirty mess on my bed. I called about it and they said there was nothing they could do because housekeeping was gone. Since they fixed my AC problem and the maintenance guy was diligent and nice, I was willing to forgive this. -I was there on business, and needed to print out two pages. This was impossible. No business desk. Guy at front desk was polite, but completely unyielding about printing a couple pages out for me just as a favor, even after I went driving around Austin looking for a place to print but everything was closed. Incidentally, the nice people at the Sheraton next door did this favor for me even though I was not a guest there. -Somewhere around 6 a.m., hotel staff knocked incessantly on the door, waking up my baby, and not even saying they were staff. When I asked who it was, they said they were looking for the guy with the plumbing problem. REALLY?! So you go around knocking on random doors to find this person?! -Very narrow outdoor hallways make it difficult to get around if you have a lot of things. On two occasions housekeeping carts were blocking the hallways (one time I had a luggage cart and the second time, a stroller) and on both occasions I eventually had to go into the room they were cleaning to find housekeeper and get her to move it. -As a business trip I had a third party paying for my stay. This party called in payment and faxed verification form. When I went to check out at the front desk, there was apparently no record of this and it all had to be done over again. Ugh!

"Great location in downtown/ excellent value!"

I've been a frequent user of this hotel for at least the last five years. I choose it for its value, its proximity to Sixth Street and the Capitol complex for running, and its friendly staff. The only problem I had this time was a toilet that ran and the carpets were dirty enough to make my feet dark from walking around barefoot. Otherwise, it was a comfortable stay.

"Decent Hotel with Great Capitol Access"
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 6, 2013
A La Quinta traveler | 
Good accommodations for a reasonable price within an easy walk to the Capitol. Parking is $12 per day and is valet only, but they let us leave the car all day after checkout saving the hassle and cost of parking at the Capitol and didn't charge us to bring it around to store our luggage for the day. The hotel is older and shows some signs of wear, but was clean and had adequate service. Will use it again for Capitol trips.

"Welcome to Sturgis"

We choose La Quinta for their pet-friendly poilcy. Unfortunately the management at this particular location allowed a huge block of rooms to go to a Harley Davidson group that showed no respect to other guests. Cycles were returning as late as 1am and they lined up to rev. their engines and blast their music at 8am. We cancelled our next night and got out of Dodge. Very disappointing... no more La Quintas.
