TLDR; A dirty experience.
Objective: We checked in around 9pm, headed to our room and found hair and stains on our pillows and sheets. Staff quickly brought us replacements which we put on the beds ourselves. Noticed dirt and fuzz on the carpets and tile in the rooms and hallways. Headed to the fitness center which was covered in dust, weights and machines were rusty or broken. Went back upstairs to shower and found a bug in the tub. We also witnessed a family check out of the hotel around 10 pm and they appeared to have similar complaints.
Update: after we killed four bugs crawling on the beds we decided to check out at midnight.
Subjective: This hotel has some kind quick staff who appear to be overworked. The hotel itself is in desperate need of a cleaning and some TLC, which I hope the higher ups at la Quinta give to it ASAP.
