La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Gainesville

I have a mixed review of this property. It is a big, beautiful new hotel. Room is sparkling clean and well appointed. Housekeeping does a great job. The staff is very nice and professional. They have a well stocked little store in the lobby area that sells frozen pot pies, canned goods and ramen, as well as desserts and snacks, medications commonly used when traveling, and soft drinks. My particular problem with the place was it is in an area next to the freeway that is under development now. There are many other hotel chains also built recently in the vicinity and someday I can see this location established as a nice place to stop when traveling with your pet, with sidewalks and restaurants within walking distance. If you are beat down tired from driving all day long and the last thing you want to do after getting there and realizing there is nowhere close to eat except gas station food, and nothing to do arround your hotel except look at the freeway construction and dirt and fields surrounding it, you might be a little bored and disappointed. Lastly, my bed was not comfortable and the pillows were hard and gave me a stiff neck the following morning. I still give this property a good solid 4 stars though. These particular issues are temporary and in time will be resolved.

We like to stay at La Quinta because they allow our small dog to stay with us. This La Quinta is a bit outdated. Specific issues with our room included: the office chair was old and all of the fake leather had worn off of it. The baseboard was stained with old vomit or some other type of grossness. The light up mirror in the bathroom did not light up. The mattress was the hardest most spring thing I have slept on since summer camp in the 1980s. Since I don’t believe in simply complaining, I would like to say that the sheets were clean, there was no weird smells. The breakfast buffet was OK. The coffee was hot. The staff was friendly. Would I stay here again? Most likely not.

For the price i was not expecting such a lovely place. The entire place seems clean and fresh. I would definitely stay again.

Our bathroom door would not shut.

Everything was great. People very helpful especially the gentleman who checked us in. We had a wheelchair accessible room. The bathroom was really large but the chair for the shower was huge. Too big for the tub Could use a little more choice of breakfast. Maybe bagels, or danish.

Room clean, however there was miscellaneous food items left in fridge from previous occupant.

Text message encouraged to use app to make check in faster.Uploaded information to app and was then asked for same info again at check in and was told by staff "they could not access that information"Entire hotel smelled of mildew.Room bathroom needs to be redone - lighting behind mirror did not work, toilet seat was broken, water pressure not good, obvious leak in ceiling and down wall had a VERY bad patch job done and paint was peeling off ceiling.Location is good, comfortable bed and hotel was quiet.

We arrived late in the evening without a reservation. The front desk receptionist was very friendly, professional, and helpful. She efficiently checked us in and even asked if we had any discount programs. Had she not, I probably would have forgotten to use one. The hotel and rooms were very clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable and the complimentary breakfast was more than adequate. Location was easy to get to and just a minute or two off the highway The only issue we had was one of the sliding glass doors in the shower had a bad lower bracket that allowed the door to come off it’s track. Would definitely stay here again.

We arrived In the early morning hours with a a reservation and once we finally got checked in we went to our room which was not ac cooled. We were tired and going to bed and noticed insects (German roaches) infested the mattresses and headboard. We were finally issued another room and sent to the fourth floor. The room was adequate yet hot inside. The young lady at the front desk would not give us door cards to the new room without surrender v the door card for the infested room. That didn’t sit well since I wanted to inspect the new room for bugs. The new room was across the hall from the Elevator and every time the elevator made it to the 4tb floor it sounded like it was as tearing the elevator apart with a loud metallic bang. We were told that breakfast was served from 6 AM to 10 AM and when we arrive for breakfast having not gotten a lot of sleep at 9:15 they were tearing the breakfast down and putting it away so we did not get to eat all we wanted nor were all the items available. We were not the only person that got the same message. The lobby was also without AC and the front doors were wide open morning and night

Great place
