In the interest of full disclosure, I have had some great nights at the La Quinta hotels in Detroit, MI and Meridian, MS.
I found a great deal on the new La Quinta in Harrisburg, but had some complaints about the property.
There was a set of lights in the room that would not turn on, and the water was not hot in the slightest. I’d venture to say that the temperature of the water did not exceed about 80 degrees.
The internet service was complimentary, but the wireless signal continually disconnected. I run an internet business that requires constant online access (utilizing Paypal to transfer funds, invoicing) and was unable to finish any transactions during my stay. It is much smaller of a complaint, but the floor of the elevator was sticky from gum being rubbed into the carpet.
Finally, the back door was continually propped open, instead of letting the door lock. I was concerned about the safety of the hotel.
There were some positive things to be had about the hotel stay. The breakfast was functional, while the room itself was very large. Happy with the hot tub and pool as well.
Thanks for reading the complaint. The La Quinta in Harrisburg can’t be beat for price, but there are a number of concerns that should be fixed before it is an all-around great hotel.
