“Our second stay at LaQuinta Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I chose this LaQuinta Inn because of its location on I35 and because it is pet friendly. I like the location because while close to I35, it is next to residential neighborhood. Denny's is right next door to the north. The Clay Pot Vietnamese restaurant is right next doorc to the south.

The entrance is inviting, reminiscent of a Spanish hacienda. The lobby is large, bright and very clean. The reception staff is friendly, helpful. The room is large, very clean, quiet and adequately supplied with traveler's essentials. This is an older facility, but a very good value. This is our second stay at this hotel. We will be staying here on our return trip.

“Nice Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

Nice basic hotel easy to get to . we had 4 rooms checked in late and told desk clerk that we would be using another card upon check out. He said he would make a note this morning the girl had charged my card and was a little put out that she had to change it. This also happen last year when we stayed here. Other than that the rooms are clean and updated and the staff is friendly .

“Nice Basic LaQuinta with a Great Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

This is a standard older LaQuinta Inn. It has been well maintained and is clean and quiet. Service was excellent with no problems with the reservation, check-in, the room, check-out or the public areas.

We made the reservation about 20 minutes before we arrived and they had the key and room ready.

“Great Stay for Gameday!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011

person found this review helpful

This little motel is a great place to stay anytime you're in Waco on Baylor related business. I stayed for the football game against Iowa St. this year and was pleasantly surprised. My last stay was for orientation as an incomming freshman in 1996.

The room was nicely updated with new bed dressing, carpet etc. The flatscreen tv was very nice and the room was clean. I also like hotels of this caliber to have outside facing doors as opposed to interior halls. I have found that it makes the room less suceptible to late night noisy neighbors.

All in all I will be staying here again for gameday...unfortunately for my next trip they are booked.

Room Tip: Try to get a room on the backside of the motel as it is the side closest to campus and farthest from...

“Great staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

This is a great hotel for people that have pets. They allow up to 2 pets per room as long as the pets are under 50 pounds and they don't charge extra. The hotel is very clean but dated. I would compare it to a motel 6 or 8. Our room had 2 full beds, TV, computer desk and the bathroom. The springs on the beds squeaked. The vanity area has hardwood floors and is fairly decent size so if you brought along a pet gate, you can leave your pets there. I believe the policy is you can leave your pets in the room if they are crated. I would think if your room is already cleaned up and the maid wasn't going to enter, you could possibly leave your pets in the vanity area gated up if they aren't huge barkers.

I think if you have rooms that face I-35 it can get noisy. Our room was on the backside but faced 9th street and it was a bit noisy. My dogs kept waking up because people were talking loudly while passing by. The hotel is right next to Baylor dorms and lots of food places off I-35.

Breakfast is from 6-9 on weekdays and 7-10 on weekends which was a bummer for us since we had to leave early in the morning. They had the waffle maker, toast, bananas, apples, broiled eggs, cereal, and various muffins and danishes. There was also fruit juice and coffee. They didn't offer any hot eggs or sausages but there was enough food.

Although dated, I gave this establishment a 4 start because of their pet policy, friendly hotel staff and good location. The staff was very accommodating and understanding.

Room Tip: Ask for rooms away from the street and freeway.
