The hotel is located near lots of shopping areas, and a few blocks away from Woodfield shopping mall and Costco. Wendy's is literally right next door if you need to grab a quick bite. It is also minutes off highway, which makes it a good place to stop for a night on a road trip (which was my family's case).
However, the facility shows some aging. The only thing that looked new was guest room doors that were painted bright white. The room is pretty small despite the other review. In our room, the bathroom was located in the back, so there was only a small work table between the bed and the door.
Breakfast is 6-9, but the eating area is pretty small - 4 4-person tables and 3 2-person tables - with chairs touching back to back. They had cold french toasts, hard boild eggs, cereal, and other standard stuff. This is the first and the only LQ that I've been to (and I've been to LQ enough to stay for free here) that did NOT have the hot waffle machine! Coffee tasted very watery as well. All in all, very disappointing breakfast offering.
I had loud guests a couple of doors down, so I had to call the front desk at midnight to intervene - when the desk called the room, they claimed that they were sleeping, but the noise died down immediately, so go figure.
This hotel had nothing special to offer, and not especially clean nor new. We decided not to come back unless we had to, or just needed to sleep for a night on a road trip.

Very clean and comfortable. Not a lot of extra frills, but good beds and comfortable stay. I'll be back.

Was here for 3 days while having meetings in Arlington Heights...overall a nice hotel....

We were pleased with the location...shopping mall adjacent to hotel, lots of great pizza right in the neighborhood. Pool was nice. The staff was friendly and helpful. Shaumburg LaQuinta looks a little tired, I'll bet they're planning to spruce it up sometime soon. Overall a good experience.
