La Quinta Inn & Suites Columbus

Alright, I am updating my review because of how dog friendly this place is!!! Brought my pup with me this time and the staff was great with her! We did not need to stay in a stinky pet only room, there was no extra fee for pets and they didn’t fuss about her size or breed. Also, all other pet owners were very friendly and respectful.
Room was clean this time. We asked room service to come back 15 minutes later and they never did, but it wasn’t an issue. Breakfast was good as usual. Not the Ritz, but this place works, even more so if they let my canine sidekick tag along!

Staff was friendly, room was a nice size, the AC worked well, and most importantly to me, I was FINALLY able to get some quality sleep. I was undisturbed by any noises, inside or outside. My only complaint is the very rusty looking shower head.

There were a lot of positives. Staff was friendly. Complimentary breakfast was good. A/​C would cool down to the sub arctic. Beds were comfortable. Showers had plenty of hot water.
However, there were some downsides. The gym was equipped much skimpier than the usual hotel gym. The treadmill and recumbent bike didn’t work and the elliptical machine made a horrible clanging noise. Staff also didn’t clean the gym often as there were dead bugs in the corners on different days.
The elevator also moved at a glacial pace.
2.5 out of 5 stars for me.

I’ll post pics later but so far not impressed. Got in the room and we hear a cricket chirping and my daughter gets freaked out by bugs. Sheets are dingy looking. Carpet doesn’t look clean at all. Shower head was disgusting. Coffee cups had stained coffee on them. That’s why I always bring my own paper cups.
Oh and by the way. Who keeps their coffee maker in the bathroom???
Checking out breakfast in the morning. I will update this review then. I don’t think I’ll stay here again.
Morning update: breakfast consisted of sausage, 2 biscuits and a waffle maker along with stale pastries and your usual beverages. As we were leaving, 5 minutes before they were shutting it down they bring out a pan of breakfast burritos. Those will be tomorrow mornings leftovers.

Stayed here for work. First time at a La Quinta. Service was really good and my room was clean. I usually stay at Hilton or Holiday Inn so all the subtle difference stuck out for me. Front desk does provide complimentary personal items like razors. There are ice machines only on floors 1 and 3 (4 floors in total). If you like to make drinks in your room after a long day like me, be sure to steal some of the better solo cups from the lobby water. The cups in the room are cheap and will disintegrate. Don’t forget to grab the complimentary cookies from the lobby in evenings. There is also a RedBox across the parking lot at McDonalds. I wouldn’t recommend going to Nancy’s for steak, it’s quite awful. The only thing I didn’t like about this La Quinta is that I wish the pool area was cleaner, the floor was really dirty. Other than that, I’d definitely stay there again.

I was driving across country and needed a place go stay that was pet friendly. I knew la Quinta in general was so I found the nearest one. A nice girl answered and told me a bit about it and the rate. I told her I’d let her know. Thinking I could make it I realized I couldn’t and needed the room. Called back and she remembered and held it for me.
At check in that girl — Samantha — was the nicest person that’s ever checked me in. She explained everything I’d need to know in a friendly matter. She was a pleasure as I needed random things over the next few hours.
The hotel itself is nice! I work at a Marriott and this is a much nicer hotel than the one I work at.

Driving cross country with a cat and big dog, stayed at a LA Quinta in New Mexico and was impressed so we sought out one outside of Houston. Impressed again! Affordable, friendly staff, clean, nice room with faux wood floors in the bathroom, no pet fee and a free breakfast. Highly recommend!
