La Quinta Inn & Suites Kyle

My fiancé and I stayed for 13 days at this La Quinta in Kyle from January 10^th-​23^rd 2016 and I will give you my 100% honest review. We just moved from New Jersey and were originally scheduled to move into our new apartment in Kyle on January 10^th, but construction delays pushed back our move-​in date, so the property management team offered to pay for a hotel stay for the duration of the time. They made sure to find the nicest hotel in the area that accepted cats because we have two, so they booked us at this La Quinta.
This hotel is newly renovated and is absolutely beautiful on the inside. They were still working on a few renovations during our stay, like for instance one of the days construction/​maintenance asked to come in to our room while we were there so they could put up new curtains which we didn’t mind.
The room had a fridge and microwave which was very handy for us considering we made meals from the room some nights like salads and warmed up some soups. The TV had many channels and the WiFi worked perfectly. Waffles at the breakfast bar were delicious and were the highlight of our mornings.
We stayed in room 323 right across from the elevator. Coincidentally, the first and last days of our stay the elevator wasn’t working so we had to walk up and down 3 flights of stairs which wasn’t a big deal. I would give the comfort level of the beds a 4 out of 5. Also, I could hear full on conversations coming from the room next door through the bathroom vent. So I think that could be a problem with privacy levels.
I love the coffee and infused water station they have in the lobby (especially the pecan praline coffee, delicious!) Most of the days the infused water was on point, like when they had lemon and basil water.
A few of the staff stood out to us, I wish we wrote down their names. One was a man that was there in the afternoons who wore a hoodie. He was exceptionally nice and even did our laundry for us one day because the guest washing machine was out of order. He’s so friendly and if he’s not a manager he should be. Also, the sweet lady with the short hair that took care of the morning breakfast bar. She always had a smile on her face. All of the staff would greet us though and ask us how our day was going. We felt like we lived there for awhile because we were there for so long lol.
The modern look and feel of this hotel impressed us so much. There is brand new carpeting. The furniture appeared new and the hardwood floors were beautiful. I loved the purple wall! The bathroom was very nice and newly renovated as well. The room felt and looked clean and fresh when we arrived. The room felt really big too. Being there for 2 weeks, we felt comfortable with the amount of space we had.
Overall this is a fantastic hotel and the staff we encountered were very friendly. We would 100% stay there again.

In the early part of 2015 I celebrated my 40^th Birthday at this hotel. It was a small intimate brunch with 40 of my closest sisters, family, extended family & friends. When I booked several months prior they told me that my gathering may end up in the middle of construction because they would be remodeling. Im not a gambler, but I took the gamble anyways & sure enough the hotel was full steam ahead into the remodeling months after I booked. Unfortunately for me there was not enough tine to move my venue. I am so happy that I didnt because it was amazing from the moment I made my booking even until the very day GM Ms. Barbara Newland, her staff Maryland & Rose made sure everything was perfect. They went above and beyond and for that I was beyond grateful. The larger room where breakfast is usually served is indeed perfect for small gatherings. I’m sure it looks even better after the remodel. I can’t wait to have another small gathering! Thank you Ladies for all that you did to make my day special!

Nice and clean. This motel appears to have been updated recently. The breakfast was very good. Our only complaint is the noise between rooms. The noise was un bearable, but noticeable. Would recommend for an economical stay.

This the the second time my wife and I have stayed at this location. It’s off the service road and easy to get to. This location is very clean and neat. Our room was very well appointed. We payed extra for the two room suite and it was nice. Two TV’s and two refrigerators. One room had a King bed and the other a large sofa. Both rooms are very large and I am glad I decided to get the suite. The breakfast bar was adequate with two personnel keeping it clean and well stocked. My only complaint is the room across the hall had about 6 kids in it and they did run up and down the hall a few times. That is their parents fault, not the hotels.

Only stay with this chain because they take pets. Rooms are dark smells musty. Have stains every where we went on carpet. Even the chair was dirty and stained. Weeds so high cant see sign to enter. Neither of us could eat the breakfast. Have the bedspreads that don’t get washed. Hairs in the sheets. Only surface cleaned. Staff was great every one we talked to. Stayed in Austin the next night downtown near capital 40. Less. Very clean. Every thing on bed is washed. Will not return. Needs total remodeling.

I’ve stayed here a total of four times, each time it has progressively gotten worse. The cleanliness of the rooms has declined. The sheets are scratchy and feel as if they’ve been used for longer than their shelf life. Bathroom tubs are dingy, but it’s not well lit so at least it’s not super obvious… It’s a hit or miss to whether the pool will be cleaned or the hot tub working. The front desk is unhelpful and unapologetic for issues (be it wifi, pool, room problems and/​or collecting something accidentally left behind). The price is way too high for what you get. This is my third stay in a La Quinta this year and honestly everyone of them has been a regret. You would think I would have learned my lesson already… I would choose any other place in the San Marcos/​Kyle area. Not worth it here.

Great hotel, clean and right in the middle of those Kyle, Buda activities. However, a bit difficult to get to and find.
No late night options close by– closest a mile away…
However, location along IH-​35N shouldn’t reflect what quality we think of hotel.

Wireless didn’t work and when I brought it to the attention of the front desk worker they acted like it was my computers fault and pointed me towards their «business center.» The computer there didn’t connect either confirming it wasn’t my computer but rather their network. I told the front desk worker this and she said, I’ll let someone know. Very disappointing.
The next morning I was awoken by several (more than 2) dogs barking two doors down. I don’t know why any hotel would allow a guest to bring that many dogs and not regulate the noise. Again, very disappointing. Needless to say, I won’t be returning.

AVOID.
We stayed at this location for three nights as part of a wedding party. They put us in a handicap room on the first floor because my grandmother would have a easier time with a handicap bathroom. The room was very dark. The building design was just dark in general. Had to turn all the lights on in every room to see anything.
The bathroom FLOODED. Not the way is was supposed to in a handicap shower. It flooded the floor in the bathroom, out into the room hall, the hall closet, and even to the carpet! A inch of water you had to stand in the bathroom to do anything. The room was super musty and mold spelling when we walked in and the carpet was moist and nasty. We bought this to the attention to the hotel and we did get a nice women who just kept apologizing. They couldn’t move us until the next night. But we couldn’t sleep because the mold spell was so bad. We looked and found BLACK MOLD all over the trim in the closet, and around the bathroom. We showed it to them, but they didn’t seem to be bothered by it. It wasn’t a little mold, IT WAS A LOT OF MOLD.
They wanted to comp us 5% for our trouble. Unacceptable. The next night, they had that same room rented out again! This place as multiple health code violations I can easily tell. The quality of this place otherwise is not very good. The pillows are as flat as pancakes, the bedding is very thing and uncomfortable and rough. The rooms, like I said ARE VERY, VERY DARK. Even with the window open, hard to see doing make up or anything! No fans in the bathroom, so they steam up and escape into your room and make everything very moist.
The «Free Wifi» is soooo slow. The signal is weak all over the building, hardly get one or two ‘bars’ of signal. When you are connect it is less than 1megabit per second. Takes upwards of 20 – 30 seconds just to look at a email.
I would avoid this place. It is not even very cheap. At least with a cheap place you get this kinda crap. Check out other places if you are in the area. A few bucks more is better than that.

Friendly service. Rooms are clean and nicely decorated. Beds are very comfy. Quite location with easy highway access.

My friend and I wanted to check out Austin, Texas this fall and see a Longhorns football game. I saw online that prices on hotels in the city were surprisingly expensive so I looked into staying somewhere close by.
On Hotwire I saw a three star hotel located in the the Kyle/​Buda area for &65 a night and I decided it was worth the look. This La Quinta Inn was what it turned out to be and it worked well.
The hotel is fairly new, built within the last few years and is in terrific shape. The rooms were very clean here and the staff was nice. It is also pet friendly, something that I noticed while we were there.
They offer the usual free breakfast foods in the mornings and have free wireless internet that worked very well.
The location of the hotel is only about 15 – 20 minutes south of downtown Austin, about the same to the Austin airport, too.
We also drove down to San Antonio one evening and it is a little less than one hour each way. San Marcos is about 10 minutes down the road as well, if you are checking out Texas State University.
The only odd thing about the place is if you are coming from the north. When you exit 35, you go over the freeway towards the hotel, which you can see, but you have to drive around the area and snake through a residential neighborhood to get just south of the hotel because it is located on a one way street. I think I explained that as best I could here, it is very confusing!
