Upon arrival, my reservation and keys where awaiting me. staff was informative of surrouding area, such as food and shopping. During my stay i always was greeted by a person not a machine. Friendly accomidating staff. maintence was excellent, one issue i had was rectified immediately by an understanding and informative maitenence man. when ever i saw him thruout my stay he always said hello and usually paid me a compliment. very nice stay indeed.

We just stayed at the La Quinta this past weekend for FSU parent's weekend. While I didn't expect a palace I was disgusted with our stay. I told the front desk clerk I had allergies and asthma, so please pick a room accordingly. I was sent to the 5th floor. The key she gave us didn't work and we had to wait outside until another one was brought. When we opened the door the smell of mold was very strong. I told the guy there was no way I could stay in there. He said he could bring a machine to fix the smell. Obviously they have had this problem before. We requested and got another room. The smell was less bad. On a positive note the sheets seemed clean. I woke up having severe allergies both mornings. Before checkout I pulled out my iphone charger. It caused a pop, burned out the charger and burned out the electricity in the room. This hotel needs to be torn done before someone gets hurt. The front desk clerk gave me a charger from lost and found. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. Also, the idea that they can charge over $200, because it is Parent's weekend is a travesty.

Always clean with a good staff. Pet friendly, only a few blocks from the dog park. Close to the capital and campus. Great value for the hotel. Free parking. Pool. No laundry. Older La Quinta but is undergoing renovations and updating. Restaurants and shopping near by.
