Better than I expected for LaQuinta
We took two teams to the Texas Women's State Tournament on the weekend of June 22-24 this year & stayed at this hotel. We had a total of 6 rooms. All but one of us lives in the Dallas area but as it was 50-60+ miles each way for most of us to drive from our homes, we decided to stay near where the tournament was being held. I've not had many positive experiences with LaQuinta properties, but this one was better than most. Overall, it showed obvious signs of age & wear/tear, especially in the rooms. A few patch jobs & some paint would go a long way. But I will say the beds were very comfortable & the a/c worked great. A dip in the pool proved to be pleasant & there was a smoking area outside around a gazebo near the pool (no smoking inside the hotel). The free breakfast each morning was adequate -- no hot food like eggs or bacon/sausage, just make-your-own waffles & toasters for bagels & bread. There was a wide variety of other breakfast items that didn't require heating & plenty of beverages. The hotel staff seemed very friendly & eager to please. This hotel has a large parking lot surrounding it & I was a little concerned about vandalism & theft with the types of vehicles I observed cruising the parking lot, but did not hear of any incidents while we were there. As mentioned by other reviewers, there is major construction going on near this property. However, with a little pre-planning, none of us found it that difficult to get from point A to point B.
