I take the blame for being awoken by the sound of a jackhammer on the cement staircase just 5 feet from the door to our room. I should have switched rooms after finding a white crusty substance on one of the pillowcases, and, during a subsequent search of the bedding, a phenomenal amount of dirt, dust, and hair between the mattress and the wall. We were just so tired, and only crashing for the night before driving the rest of the way home, so we ditched the grody pillow and avoided the head of the bed. Thanks to La Quinta for the most efficient wake-up call ever. Even after I called the front desk, the noise only stopped for a little while. They had their guys keep up the loud work, just not with the jackhammer. Couldn't get out of there fast enough.
Positives: Hotel was easy to get to from both highway and friends homes within town.
Negatives: Room was pretty gross; extremely loud construction/repair on staircase outside room.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 14 May 2008 rated 5 out of 10.
When we checked into the room, we found that the housekeepers did not change the sheets from the previous occupants. The overall experience was not what I expected from La Quinta or the star rating of 2.5.
Positives: Convenient to downtown Baton Rouge and LSU.
Negatives: Our beds were not cleaned from the previous occupants.

I had a quick and easy check-in process and check-out process. The woman at the desk switched my room to a ground-floor at my request so I wouldn't have to carry my racing bike up the narrow, twisting stairs. However, the room smelled moldy and there was visible black mold growing in the bathroom. Maybe the second-floor room she had wanted to put me in would not have been moldy? The linens and furniture were never looking and everything in the room worked. There was a little bit of noise from the families in the pool but I did not hear noise from any adjacent rooms. The bed had squeaky springs but it was comfortable enough for me (I usually sleep on a fairly hard bed).
Positives: Location right off interstate, but no interstate noise.
Negatives: Mold growing in room with moldy smell.

Well as far as the room being in a good location it was. I ask the girl was the food good at the restaurant next door she said yes. My a/c broke about 3p.m. and it took them an hour to fix it. Then about 11p.m. my toilet decided it wasn't going to flush right the rest of the night. And when I first open the door I had to let the room air out it smelled of old musky sour smells.
Positives: TV worked and bath tub was nice.
Negatives: Well let's see my a/c broke they had to come in and fix it. Took about an hour. my toilet wouldn't flush right, and the room smelled sour.

It was clean and location was good, but being a woman who travels so for work, Motels (with outside entrance) is not good choice.
Positives: Location.
Negatives: Motel, not a hotel, big difference.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 21 Apr 2008 rated 2 out of 10.
Told maintenance about tub leaking. Came by would not replace seal of drain. Same night tub leaking through drain hole (coming out of the wall all over bathroom and bedroom floor. Told front desk next morning. Came back to hotel that evening and maintenance asked how the tub was? (Obviously front desk was to busy talking about personal business w/ housekeeper to be worried about my needs as a customer. Maintenance said they would close room to repair.
Positives: Located across from a great restaurant (t.j's bar-b-cue).
Negatives: Poor maintenance and CS.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 06 Nov 2006 rated 3 out of 10.
For one night stay, hotel is tolerable; however, if I had to spend 2 or more nights, I would not have been comfortable with my pick. Overall, the hotel was easy to access from major interstate and put me close to LSU campus (that was important).
Positives: Location to LSU was great - easy to get to campus.
Negatives: Room was not very clean; smelled like smoke; not enough towels.
