The current address of the Quality Inn is Ave Reforma 5530, formerly the Hotel Hacienda.
I booked an accessible room with a microwave and refrigerator for a week but found when I arrived that most of the property was housing Mexican soldiers and that we had been bumped to a room at the back which was fine but was upstairs and without the facilities I asked for. The price was the same.
I understand why soldiers are present in Nuevo Laredo, and I understand also that they have to be housed. At least we were very safe. It meant, however, that as almost the only non-military guests we had to walk through bunches of soldiers to exit or enter the property and that the restaurant was not completely happy about opening morning or evening just for us.
Fortunately, there's a mall very close by.
Ordinarily, this would be a pleasant place to stay but nothing's ordinary in Nuevo Laredo at the moment and when we arrived back in the US after 5 weeks in Mexico, the reaction of the DHS personnel was: "You did *what*?"
