La Quinta Inn & Suites New Orleans East - Chalmette Area

Ok for the money

When looking for an affordable place to stay in New Orleans, this hotel worked out ok. There seemed to be a "damp" feeling / smell throughout the hotel, but nothing to get too worked up over. I don't like the central New Orleans area, so for ease of access to my final destination it worked out well and the price was about 1/3 less than a few of the hotels closer to my destination on the "West Bank." Since I left the hotel early in the morning traffic was not a factor, if I was leaving to head to the West Bank during normal hours, I would have paid the extra money and stayed closer. For a good priced room on a short notice this worked out fine.

Great Room, Outstanding Hotel Experience!

After staying at a few other hotels in New Orleans, we were pleasantly surprised to find a hotel that was WAY nicer than the other hotels for a better price! There was traditional hotel parking available (not secured by a locked gate), but it was free and it was safe. We did not hear any noises while in our room at night. We were very happy with the room. It was clean and very comfortable. We didn't eat breakfast so I don't know how it was. There were only two places to eat within walking distance of the hotel--IHOP and a Japanese/American buffet. There was at least a McDonalds a little farther away if you want to drive. The Japanese/American place we went to but after pulling into the parking lot we left. Any buffet that has 1 customer at 7pm at night, is a buffet I don't care to go to. Everyone local must know something I don't.... The IHOP appeared nice, but after going inside, they told us they didn't have most of what was on the menu, they said they ran out of everything. They didn't even have napkins. They used the same paper towels in the bathroom to wrap the silverware. The bathrooms had a sewage backup issue that you could smell as soon as the bathroom door opened. So with these choices for food within walking distance, eat before you get to the hotel exit! The hotel was GREAT. I have nothing bad to say, but it would have been nice if we would have known before arriving at the hotel that there was not any place to eat nearby.

Great hotel for the price

This was a really good hotel for the price. Very secure and neat.

Adequite lodging for business

This hotel was acceptable. The bathroom needed cleaning upon my arrival. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was not very nutricious but tasted good, the fruit and yoghurt selection was adequate when available but was not available for 7 of the 11 days I was there. Hotel was very accessable to the highway in and out of New Orleans (15-30 minutes). Staff was helpful when needed.

Value for the money

This hotel was a good value for the cost. No real complaints, an overall pleasant stay.

Great for the Price

Staff very helpful and polite. Breakfast was good and prompt. Needs more premium channel choices. Very clean.

Right for the price

I was down for a conference and had taken a taxi to get there, and the driver had no idea where it was, and his disbatcher had a hard time finding it as well. The ammenties were awesome!! BUT the staff was noisey through the hallways and woke me up in the morning. I was also very turned off by the ants that i found all over the room. It needed a good cleaning. The breakfast wasn't bad though, and there were a lot of options! The bathroom was extremly clean! But due to the ants in the room, I still felt dirty. I woiuld go back because of the price i paid.

Nice to look at but the smell. . .

Price was great. .. the condition of hotel was great. . . but the smell. . it was bad that turned horrible. I don't know what it was or where it ws coming from - but it progressively got so bad I attempted to sleep with my shirt over my nose. Beds were uncomfortable. .I could barely walk the next day from being sore and stiff.
