La Quinta Inn & Suites

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 02 Sep 2011 rated 6 out of 10.

We picked this hotel because it was close to the water park and it had a great pool! The pool was awesome, but... When we arrived, I requested a non-feather pillow and they told me I should have brought my own! My daughter and I have asthma and allergies and I did not think this was an unreasonable request. There was no fan in the bathroom and aside from the entrance and the furnishings, the hotel seemed a little ghetto. There were unsavory types hanging out in the parking lot, I would have thought it was motel 6 if I didn't know better. It seemed like a "party" hotel, if you're into drinking and smoking, it's perfect. The price was right for a young family, but I wouldn't stay there again.

Positives: The furnishings were nice and bed was comfortable. Loved the big pool, which is why we picked this hotel.

Negatives: Too smoker friendly, ashtrays outside every door, even on nonsmoking floors. Halls smelled of cigarette smoke, no fan in bathroom!

This was a clean, nothing fancy, okay place to stay for one night. If you want to use your laptop for any significant time, however, bring a long cord. The only accessible plug was in the bathroom. I used the bed for a desk and pulled up a chair. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Room included fridge and microwave (which wasn't mentioned in description I saw before booking the room.) One of the light bulbs was out and as mentioned, not a good room for using your computer. Low light and lack of well-located available outlets were the main draw backs to me.

Positives: Clean room, friendly staff, allowed early check in, discount at a very decent restaurant next door.

Negatives: Hotel boasts free wifi but the only accessible plug for computer was in bathroom. Unacceptable in this era.

We have stayed here before, and it was better a couple years ago. Still fine, but it is getting a little run down. The carpet in the hallways, etc. is not in great shape. The room was OK, but the bathroom door wouldn't lock, and the shower curtain was dirty. It's looking like it could use some renovations.

Positives: Free breakfast and free WiFi in the rooms.

Negatives: It's starting to look a little run down.

We were making a quick trip to Calif. And this hotel was a great price, well located, and able to take our 2 small pets, that we always travel with. Great staff.

Positives: Staff was so professional and friendly. Would defiantly use again.

Negatives: The carpets were a bit stained, and some trash around outside.

The location to the main highway was important and easy to find. The room was a little shabby but the balcony was marvelous. The ice machines were few and far between and that was not good.

Positives: I liked the location and the balcony with the rooms.

Negatives: The room was a little shabby.

Easy to find with a helpful staff. The room was very large and spacious with comfortable beds. The pool was also very nice and it had a small Jacuzzi.

Positives: Spacious room with convenient location.

Negatives: Free breakfast ended too early.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 09 Jun 2008 rated 4 out of 10.

Located on a busy road full of hotels and restaurants-road was under construction. Staff was friendly, but knew little about the town. The map they had was almost worthless. The free internet service didn't exist in any meaningful way-and interfered with on-board compatibility. Bed clothing on 1 of 2 beds had some strong smell.

Positives: Staff were friendly.

Negatives: Bedspread had some strong smell.

Sink did not drain properly and the toilet handle had to be held down to flush properly.

Positives: Front desk personnel nice-but didn't pick the best room.

Negatives: Noisy-I asked for a quiet room and it was anything but.

It's a decent 2-star hotel. Nothing fancy, but it is clean and convenient to freeways. The AC has been upgraded and is efficient without being wasteful. What else to say? Nothing memorable about the place, but that is a lot better than having something negative to say. Everything was clean and well taken care of.

Positives: The beds were comfortable and clean.

Negatives: The check out clerk was less than friendly.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 04 Jun 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

Very clean, however room TV remote did not work and light bulbs needed replacing on two lamps. Continental breakfast was very adequate (not just donuts and coffee). The room was very comfortable and not in the least noisy from outside traffic or other rooms.

Positives: Value for price.

Negatives: Overcrowded continental breakfast-not enough seating.

I was happy, over all, with our hotel. The out door pool was very nice and easily accessible. It was the most run down "La Quinta" I have ever stayed in (I've stayed in 5 or 6 and they are usually very well maintained.) I was surprised at the dirty hallways. The breakfast was really nice.

Positives: Accepted request for down stairs and next to exit. Loved the outdoor pool.

Negatives: It was not clean. Scraps of garbage in the hallways. A discarded clothing tag on our room floor when we got there.

Hotel needs a little upgrading, furnishings are dated, elevated needs work, it is small and needs upgrading, at times I didn't think the door would open, it opened so slowly. The hotel must have been quite a nice place a few years ago. Just needs some care.

Positives: Close to where I needed to be.

Negatives: The breakfast buffet was not good at all, especially the coffee, it was always burnt, not a very big choice either of food.

Hotel very clean rooms big not huge. Nice outside sitting area to relax. Good breakfast coffee in room or down stairs. Nice selection of items at breakfast. All in all very enjoyable stay and also close to all areas of Redding California.

Positives: Very nice rooms, DSL great service excellent overall great.

Negatives: Parking not great, but no real problem.

Our stay was comfortable. I would recommend the hotel to friends and family.

Positives: The staff was friendly and helpful; the room was good size and felt comfortable.

Negatives: The walls in the hallways needed to be cleaned.

The room faced I-5, was on the 3rd floor and received the most sun/noise. We wanted a king bed, preferably nonsmoking room. We got two double beds and a smoking room. Probably the worst room in the hotel. One staff person was very friendly and apologetic.

Positives: The continental breakfast was convenient.

Negatives: We wanted king size bed/non smoking room and got a two full size beds in a smoking room.

It was nice. I could bring my dog.

Positives: Dog friendly.

Negatives: Shower curtain to high, water all over the floor.

The location of La Quinta is great as it is east to locate. We were disappointed to note the lack of maintenance of the room. I do not like to have the coffee pot in the bathroom.

Positives: Free internet in room.

Negatives: Tired looking carpets, linens, bedding, furniture.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 02 Apr 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Backs onto Freeway. Close to restaurants and shopping. Sat night loud, noisy teenagers. Front desk no help.

Positives: Friendly staff.

Negatives: Needs touch up maintenance.

Overall the appearance was nice, the breakfast was ok if you like white bagels in bags, sweet rolls in bags, sugary muffins in bags. Appreciated that there was fresh fruit and yogurt. There has been some remodeling and everything was clean. Had a couple of encounters with the desk staff that were less than stellar. Maybe because they were dealing with our 20 something girls and didn't feel they needed to be treated as well as the "adults". The beds were to my liking and the location fit us really well for the things we were doing. Overall, I'd probably go there again if I did not absolutely have to have a refrig in the room. Need it for insulin and they have a limited number available that they move from room to room.

Positives: The maintenance staff was excellent - very responsive.

Negatives: No refrigs in the rooms, no DVD players on premises.

The La Quinta in Redding is a great place to stay. It is clean and friendly with free Wi Fi.

Positives: It was clean and friendly wifi was a big plus.

Negatives: I wish it was closer to Bethel church in Redding.
