“1st Motel I Ever Walked Out.”

La Quinta Inn Williamsburg

Jul 3, 2008

1st of all the front desk clerk would not acknowledge I was there and kept answering the phone, even giving directions to the hotel to a potential customer. Then when finally checking in, they had my name correct and a completely different address. Once that was finally corrected, we went to our room afer driving for 6 hours from Pa. to find that our room was not cleaned yet. This room was for a king size bed and the bed was a mess and there were dirty towels all over the place. There was also a very bad musty smell and a smell comparable to not being cleaned for a few weeks. After going back and explaining to the front desk and also the head housekeeper, we were told that our original room that I booked thru AAA 6 weeks prior was not available and they had to give me this room. I dont care about that but still no excuse as to why they would send me to a room not cleaned yet. The head housekeeper then informed us they would spray some air freshner in the room. At this point I have had it with this place and she did not like us telling her the room needed alot more than air freshner. We were offered to stay in another room with 2 twin beds for a discount for 1 nite then have to move to our original room the next day. I really did not want to do this since we were planning on attending Busch Gardens for the next day would be very tired to move all of our belongings again from the 2nd floor to the 1st floor down the stairs since there are no elevators here. We checked out the room anyway, it was clean but still had a bad musty smell. I am an asthmatic and I shouldnt have to pay good money to sleep in a room like this. At that point we canceled our reservation and booked at a nearby Hotel.

“Par for the course”

La Quinta Inn Williamsburg

4 of 5 stars
Northern Virginia
Jun 26, 2008

Pictures on the LaQuinta website are a little misleading. This is a Motel, as in exterior entrance to the rooms. It is a bit of an older facility, but the furnishings are up to date and everything was clean. The included breakfast was basic but good, comparable to a Hampton Inn. A very family-oriented crowd was staying there.

Overall, above average for the price.

“Perfectly adequate”

La Quinta Inn Williamsburg

4 of 5 stars
Upstate New York
Jun 24, 2008

We stayed for three nights. Hotel is older but in good shape. Breakfast is VERY good, a little crowded, but allows you to eat a late lunch and save taking a meal at the theme parks. FREE local AND long distance calls. Great towels. Friendly, helpful staff. You'll have to fight off the guy in the lobby hawking time share condos in return for theme park tickets. A refrigerated tractor trailer showed up quite early and unloaded right outside our room, but those things happen. If all you need is a nice place to sleep & eat breakfast, this is a fine choice.

“Good Value”

La Quinta Inn Williamsburg

4 of 5 stars
Seattle, WA
Apr 11, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

We spent 4 nights here in Apr 08. We were concerned after reading some of the bad reviews but were satisfied in the end. It was advertised as a 3-diamond hotel and that is what it is. Perhaps some people expect a 5-diamond hotel for a 3-diamond price? As a "Returns" member we had to request a better room when checking in. Our room was clean and one of the beds was more comfortable than the other, but we had a fridge, microwave and coffee pot which were appreciated. The hotel is a good value compared to others in the area, and close to all of the attractions. The continental breakfast is included and while it is your usual "starchy" boring breakfast, it gave a sufficient breakfast to start the day and was fast. The first two days our room was cleaned well, but the last two days I had to go to the front desk to request a coffee decanter that was not broken, wash cloths, TP and kleenex. This was not a big deal for me and it was still worth what we paid for the room.

Soiled towels,and Loud buses that idle outside your parking lot window starting 3:30 a.m.- 5 a.m and idle for over an hour.
Bus driver don't care (He's up already) and the hotel management that will tell you they would rather have bus business, than yours. Strongly do not recommend.

At Laquinta every guest expierence is important to us. It doesnt matter if you have twenty rooms or one. We make it our number one priority with our bus drivers that they take into consideration all of our guest before starting there buses in the morning. The linen used by our staff is high qualty euro wave towels and sateen sheets. We change towel daily with housekeeping service,and fresh towels are available twenty four hours at our front desk.
