La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Albuquerque Midtown

This place was average at best. The room was clean and looked remodeled but the bathtub had jets that were moldy. I wouldn’t use a jetted tub in a hotel anyway but they should have replaced the tub. The free breakfast was pretty sad. What alarmed me the most though was the area the hotel was in. It was pretty rough. Homeless people wandering around and there was no place to eat except for a Whataburger about 6 minutes away and they had an armed security guard standing at the door. I was worried about parking our car in the hotel parking lot but luckily had a room facing the parking lot so I could keep an eye on it. They did have the lot well lit and I did see a security guard patrol the lot. My take away from this place is you get what you pay for. I paid 100 bucks for the night. It was a stop over on a cross country trip. Lesson learned for me though is not to book until I see where the hotel is located.

I have stayed at this hotel numerous times in the past. Never again. Wyndham has completely ruined the La Quinta chain. When I booked, it represented itself as newly renovated. Absolutely the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Gone is all the lovely art that used to adorn the walls. Despite there being a newer couch, the tv is only visible from the bed. The desk is useless and there is only one chair. In the past, the table was able to be used as a desk and eating table with two chairs available. There is no closet, just this fragile stand alone thing with no room for any clothes. This is supposed to be a handicapped room, but I had to ask for a non slip mat for the tub which turned out to be plastic not rubber. The new window coverings are shades that are supposed to be electrically operated. No control in site and the blackout part of the shade is raised 2 ft and no one knows what to do, so someone could see in at any point during the night as the room is on the ground floor. This really creeps me out. So despite the added cost, I will be staying with Best Western, Hyatt or Hilton from now on.

A lot of homeless people in the area. And the ice machine didn’t work.

Thank you for being just what is advertised. Clean, comfortable and friendly. Over the moon grateful for a good night sleep and a clean shower. The lighting could be a little better in the bathroom but the massive high ceilings and spacious room was well worth the sacrifice.

Good price but not many amenities in the area.

Was charged multiple times totalling over $325 on my bank statement on top of the price of the room. No explanation or call back. Had to contact my bank to investigate fraud. Stay away.
