I travel for a living so of course I've seen my share of hotels. Check in at the LaQuinta went ok, however when I got to my room, the counter and ice bin had cigarette burns on it as if someone used it for an ashtray. I had to use the laundry bag to put ice in because there was no ice bag in the ice bin...then the ice machine on my floor didn't work so i had to go down to the 1st floor just to get ice..The iron didn't work, and there was a stain on my bed.....i say stay elsewhere if possible

Check-in was fine, the front desk was helpful and checked us in promptly. The elevator floors could've used some good cleaning and the halls are a bit dingy. Got into the room and was cold, so turned on the heater. The units are under the window and the window had a curtain, so when the warm air was blowing out - the air would blow into the curtain, which in turn would not circulate in the room. So, in order to get the room warmer had to crank up the heater. And that's when I saw the spider on the curtain! I first thought it was dead so didn't touch it. Then afterwards when I was sitting on my bed - I saw it moving onto the ceiling and then the wall!! Ended up killing it with my slipper! Didn't want to move room as we had already showered and were comfortable in bed.

The room was shabby with an outdated tv. Bathrooms were not clean at all. Toilet didn't look like it was cleaned so couldn't really sit on it and the shower wasn't clean either. They should really look into what their housekeeping does. Seems to me that they pay housekeeping to do nothing at all.

Breakfast wasn't bad - but it shuts down around 9am! So better wake up early to eat. Choices were good and the area was clean.

The hotel is located off the freeway and that was the best part of it.

I stayed in this La Quinta Inn as an ongoing patient in a clinical trial at Johns Hopkins Medical Center. It is an easy 6 mile drive to the hospital. (They will also provide a shuttle to the hospital upon request). The staff was friendly and helpful. They do an excellent job at breakfast and there is plenty of free parking. The whole facility is maintained in top notch order. Some days I am not feeling too well and there are several restaurants and grocery stores across the highway which come in very handy. Frequently, I am alone and feel quite safe and secure here. They give an excellent weekly rate. I will be using this hotel throughout my trial.

Travelling from Nova Scotia. Was picked up at the airport - although the pickup could have been sooner - waited about an hour. Arrived at the hotel, where we received excellent service, room was good. The staff were very helpful in getting us to the light train so we could visit the waterfront. They then pickup us at the light train and drive us back to the hotel. The breakfast in the morning was good. The staff then arranged for us to be driving to the ship were we are going to take a Cruise. Wonderful front desk staff and Assistant Manager.
