La Quinta Inn Galveston East Beach, Galveston

I was disappointed. It looked a lot nicer in the internet pictures. Our room was small, dark and had a musky smell. The carpet looked dirty. I didn't feel comfortable. Before we left, I did a quick search of the room for any misplaced personal items(this was especially necessary because we had a busy one-year-old child). I peeked under the bed...OMG. There was a tampon there. I wish we stayed somewhere else. That was then, so the hotel might have improved since. I just wanted to share my experience. I don't remember how much we were charged nor do I remember the quality of service.

When we arrived, the lobby had a musty and fishy odor. Once we got to our rooms, the bedding was very dated, looks likes some drapes that were 30 years old. We had reserved 3 doubles, out of the 3, only 1 had a refridgerator and microwave even though all of the rooms were supposed to have one of each. The only thing that looked like it had been touched by housekeeping was the beds, everything else was dusty, the nightstand had water-rings from cups. In 2 of the rooms, there was coffee but no cups. Under the bedskirt, there was cigarette buds, caps to sodas, a dirty sock from a prior guest and trash. At breakfast the next morning, there was cereal but no milk. As for guest laundry, there was only one washer and one dryer and the washer was "out of order". The only good thing i can say about this hotel is that the beds were comfortable, other than that, i wouldnt recommend it to anyone and i will not be returning.

GREAT SERVICE, CLEAN ROOM, COMFORTABLE BED, SAFE AND QUITE, PET FRIENDLY. SPENT ALL DAY LOOKING FOR THE BEST PRICE AND GREAT QUALITY, AND WE FOUND IT HERE

WE took a spur of the moment ride to Galveston just to get away from the city. We didn't want to spend a lot of money but wanted to enjoy ourself for one night. La Qinita had the best price. It is an older hotel/motel but it was clean and really didn't have that musty oder that you get when you stay along the beach. It only has full size beds but we decided right away to not fight each other and sleep in separate beds for the night and I will say they were comfortable. We both agreed we slept well. The staff was very friendly and agreed to keep our bag behind the counter as we had arrived 5 hours early. We did have a Gulf view as do all the rooms but it is not a personal balcony so be prepared for that. People do have to get by you if you are sitting out there. The continental breakfast is what you get at most places but pace yourself to be early because it did get crowded. The only thing missing was a hair dryer but again this is an older hotel. The TV is outdated but it had a good picture and as my husband pointed out we weren't there to watch TV. Great water pressure in the shower and was it hot. Didn't get to use the pool but it looked inviting. Easy access to the beach right across the street and it is right next door to a Denny's. It is not the Hilton or the Shereton but will we stay there again? YOU BET!. We have already changed our RSV for the bike rally in Nov to here. I wouldn't want to stay here for a week if I have a family bit for one or two nights with two grown adults it is juist fine. Now if you are a person that won't venture out all day and plan to just sit in your room I would say spend your money on something more upscale but for those of us that only want a hot shower and a nice bed(s) this is the place. Yes we will go back and it will be soon.:)

Hotel is a 'tad "long in the tooth"...2 beds in the room were postage stamp size...miserable night of sleep due to the small bed. Finally gave up and let the wife sleep alone.

We absolutely loved our stay! The staff was wonderful. The rooms were clean and fresh, breakfast was great! Can't say thank you enough to the staff!!!!!!! THANKS!

we love to stay here . staff is very friendly , rooms are clean , and they are pet friendly . if your look for a 4 star place.you won,t find here .but if your looking for a great place with great value this is it.and we stay there very time we go to galvestion

We arrived late in the evening. Got good desk clerk help. Our room was clean and comfortable. No smell of mold!

We liked our stay at La Quinta Inn Galveston. Canyon at the front desk and Marta who graciously hosts the continental breakfast are exceptional! Great job girls! The beach is just across the street and all museums and other activities are close by. The only drawback is just the one un-air conditioned elevator for the entire inn.

My family and I loved this place. True the pool could havee been cleaner, however the rooms were extremly clean upon arrival. The House Keepers were very helpful and good natured, a joy to be around the staff altogether was good people. We will be back if possible.
