Good place to stay

This hotel was actually better than I thought it would be. The room looked like it had been remodeled a little, as it had wood flooring and newer looking bathroom fixtures. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. The breakfast bar was good, but it would have been nice to have some eggs along with all the carbs that were on there. I didn't see much fruit either. The location was really good, right off of I-85 and Billy Graham Parkway. Some of the staff was pleasant, some of them were rude. The security personnel was very rude to our group. They basically accused our group of rowdy behavior that was actually being caused by people that werenot part of our group.
Security-wise, BEWARE. There was a break-in into one of the cars on the lot while I was there. Also, one of the exit doors on the first floor did not always close completely, making it very possible that just anyone could enter the building. Also, please see the above remark regarding the hotel security staff.
Friendly Front Desk

We stayed here following the race at Lowes speedway. The bed was very comfortable, but the pillows were flat. The room we were in was clean. The carpet was clean but needed replacing. I would not hesitate to stay there again. The front desk had the friendliest and most courteous staff I have ever encountered.

Very comfortable, convenient and reasonably priced value hotel for an overnight stay near the CLT airport. We spent one night before a very early flight the next morning. Quiet & clean too, not fancy. Excellent free continental bfast, with make your own waffles.
Good but some issues

A good hotel for the price. Pet-friendly, a clean room, easy location off I-85, and a good free breakfast in the morning all positives. Service-wise, some problems. They didn't have any shampoo in the hotel, which I find hard to believe. Also, La Quinta will not allow you to put a rollaway cot into a room with two double beds. When I asked, "so where is our third child supposed to sleep?", all I got was a shrug of the shoulders. Don't blame the staff, this is La Quinta policy but it detracts from the family friendly nature of the hotel (unless your family is two kids or less). To the staff's credit, they immediately brought up extra pillows, blankets, and sheets so we could make a pallet on the floor for my third child.
I Do Not Recommend This Hotel

I do not recommend this hotel. When we arrived the room we were assigned to had feces smeared on the toilet seat. We returned to the desk and were immediately moved to another room. This room had a quarter size chunk of food on the floor near the dresser, even though it appeared that the carpet had been vacuumed. There is an attractive laminate floor foyer that extends into the bathroom. We spilled water in the foyer as we were getting ready to check out in the morning and wiped it up with a towel. The towel turned black.
I found that my travel size bottle of shampoo was nearly empty but the only toiletry in the bathroom was bar soap. There was the usual "Did you forget something? Ask for a complimentary item at the front desk." sign in the bathroom so I did. Unfortunately they did not have any shampoo. I told the clerk that I've not stayed in a hotel in years that doesn't offer shampoo, lotion and even body wash. The clerk stated that they were out of shampoo but they never have lotion or body wash.
The beds were quite comfortable. Unfortunately, they only have feather pillows on the beds, a problem for me and many other allergy sufferers. I have encountered many other chains offering feather pillows but none other that does not give you the choice of a fiber-fill pillow.
