La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Houston Hobby Airport

My father reserved a room here on 2/13. The location is great;close to the airport for my flight the next day. The receptionist was delightful. Lobby and hallway were the lipstick on the pig. The room. Atrocious. They charged $127 a night for a run down falling apart, paint chipping, no matching tv remote control having, had to use the cable box to change the channel, only thing new in the room was the bathroom mirror and lamp. Then have the audacity to charge a $100 deposit in the event of damage. Seriously? They should have given us $100 for the tetanus shot we are all going to need. I forgot to mention the walls and hallways are so thin, you hear everything! There was a room about 2 doors down blaring their music..it was an attempt to drown out the sexual sounds they were making. It wa

Access to the hotel is very poorly marked and difficult to enter/exit due to road construction. I tried the fitness center. Treadmill screamed like a banshee. Elliptical machine wobbled and started coming apart. Cable machine had broken pulleys and missing parts. Not safe. Tried to wash clothes in the guest laundry. Front desk had no quarters to use the machines. The Best Western next door was able to give me change. The washing machine leaks out onto the hallway floor during the wash cycle. Dryer worked fine.

Affordable, breakfast was good. Room is a bit dated decor wise but it was clean and comfortable. Free shuttle from/to the airport. I arrived after a 13hr flight into the US, at about 6pm, and left at 7.30am the next day back to IAH. There are no restaurants close by which is fine if you have a short overnight layover like me and just want to shower and sleep.

Positive: Staff Negative: Bugs and black mold in the bathroom Water stains in the ceiling and no tissue in the bathroom

We do love this place for the location by the airport and leaving our car there when we are gone. I will have to say the last 2 times we've stayed, the rooms were not very clean. This last time we had no shampoo/conditioner, no tissues (empty dispenser) and the side tables had sticky stuff on them. Hopefully they will remedy this before we stay again in a few weeks.
