La Quinta Inn Augusta, Augusta

I had no problem. I noticed many people who wrote about this LaQuinta Inn in Augusta, comments are from 4 years ago or so! From 2006 and 2007! Things have changed! Stayed at this hotel, due to my son had to report to Fort Gordon in Augusta. Excellent room, excellent food, excellent and friendly staff! Not far from Augusta mall (which has great looking, most beautiful black women!); mall had great deals. I even visited the Cadillac bar down the road. This LaQuinta is right near the highway (1 block away), and close to everything (Dennys, etc.) Had good night sleep. Great breakfast in morning! I would stay here again. TRY IT! DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE NAYSAYERS! THAT was 3 and 4 years ago now! I guess the hotel "cleaned up its act"! I am going back in the Fall when he graduates again from this army base! -PAUL

I stayed there for 2 nights while dropping off my daughter at Ft. Gordon. The staff was amazingly nice and the house cleaning was pleasant and nice. I already made arrangements to stay there in May 2010 when I go back to see my daughter graduate. Also, it is next to a Starbuck and Dunkin Donuts as well as many many restaurants all walking distance.

So they have a Starbucks, good for them. When I checked in, the key didn't work, I told Ms. Asia, she insisted that I wasn't using the antiquated card system correctly. I dragged my luggage the two flights back up and tried again, guess what, still didn't work, went back to the lobby and she finally came back with me only to concur that in fact, the keys didn't work. She made me wait there until she returned with a master key only to move me to a room that was filled with the smell of marijuana which made me sick and I again had to move to a dirty room with mold in the bathroom. Pay the extra 20 bucks to stay somewhere else.

I was rather disappointed with my choice here. The location of the hotel is probably convient for some but it's in the middle of a large strip area with other hotels that were more shady then this one. The room was dated, smelled, not very clean and beds were horrible. Staff could have won the Personality of the Year awards for their help (sarcasm implied) Not too many likes for the place. The pictures really do not depict what the place really looks like. I'd advise against it.

You can't hide the overwhelming mildew aroma with the A/C or pretend the menthol flavored chewing tabacco in the phone handset is the pleasent fragrance of the person on the other end of the line. The bathrooms in (3) separate rooms had dirty walls, floors and tubs. Security cameras are lacking in the pool area which allows partiers to extend beyond 3 a.m. and receiving a signal for the internet is hit and miss. This La Qunita is not representative of other facilities I've enjoyed staying at.
