Check in was ok. Room smelled, shower looked yucky (my son said like a prison), pee or food coated the baseboards in breakfast area. I paid for my well behaved med sized dog and Did not even like my dog to be on the ground. It was dirty, bird ppop on outside tables. Front desk told me as my dog is not a service dog I could not be in the breakfast area, which was the lobby. I asked her where she wanted me to go, she shrugged, then said outside, which was dirtier and super hot. Dog friendly it was not. Dog area is rocks and no pick up bags. Sidewalks filthy, rug in room stained. I wanted to sleep and get out as fast as I could. Do not stay here. Why is La Quinta quality so unreliable? Some are nice, others disgusting.
