Staff were very, very nice. The suite was super affordable and very big and clean. Cleanliness in hallway/stairs could improve!

8.4/10 Very Good! (45 reviews)

Overall not a bad one night stay, the property manager was very accommodating to our needs. But the unit itself could use a little TLC. Pros: Accommodating property manager Comfortable bedding and sheets Spacious parking Towels and toiletries provided, as well as pan ware for cooking. Cons: A smell throughout the unit (probably a given since it’s on older building) Carpets need to be redone or deep cleaned. Bathroom had a smell to it, along with temporary patch in the tub wall, maybe it needs to be replaced entirely. Parts of the wall seem to be rotted towards baseboards. A window was left open in a spare room prior to our arrival, didn’t notice until after we returned from shopping. All the windows were left unlocked. It was a good one night stay, but all in all, this place could use a bit more renovating

Always a great stay at this LaQuinta. Our family stays here twice every summer as our half-way point on our annual trip to El Paso. And now there’s a Buc-ee’s that you can literally walk to!
