  Nice facility

  Plenty of space for the dogs to do their business, the room is a bit dated but kept up, staff was very nice and didn't have a problem with us bringing the dogs to the breakfast area in the morning. And even though it was right next to a busy freeway, our room was very quiet. The only criticism is that the surrounding area is commercial and not very attractive, and the property is surrounded by a tall wrought iron fence, I assume for protection. And there is a security guard on the premises. I guess that should make me feel safer, but also made me feel like we were not in a good area of town. Needless to say we did not take the dogs for any walks outside the fence.

  Just OK

  Staff was extremely cordial, accommodating, and as helpful as could be, but the property seemed understaffed. The building is very tired and needs some capital improvements. I can see why some of the other reviewers felt the way they did, but I'd say because of the price it is a decent value. It wouldn't be an enthusiastic "stay there again," but I wouldn't be afraid to for a night traveling through Albuquerque to my next destination.

  Not good

  Room dirty, heater very noisy, and breakfast was terrible.

  Stay away

  This is by far the dirtiest hotel we have stayed at on our cross country road trip. Allowing dogs doesn’t make up for how unclean this place is! We have had nothing but great experiences (especially with La Quinta hotels) but this makes me question! The carpets throughout the hotel look and feel gross. I’m pretty tolerant but gotta say this hotel is not worth the money. Keep looking for somewhere else!

  Loud air conditioner

  The staff was very accommodating when we needed them to hold our bags due to an early arrival. The bed was very good but when we turned on the heater it triggered the smoke alarm. At least we know it works.

  Just okay

  Since this location offers pet-friendly rooms, the rooms should have hard surface flooring instead of carpet.

  Central to everything

  The staff were kind, the room was clean and they even had ice cream in the lounge! The pups had a couple large places to potty and sniff around. I would stay here again.

  NOPE!

  I would not recommend this place. Check-in was a nightmare. The lobby was filled with people and dogs and only 1 desk person who was working as fast as he could and was very nice. The elevators were dirty. Only 2 at opposite ends of the hotel for 5 floors. Our room seemed like the carpet had been cleaned recently, but no microwave or refrigerator as advertised. Our dog was attacked by a cocker spaniel as we attempted to get off the elevator and they were waiting to get on. Not the hotel's fault, but cramped facility. We wouldn't stay here again.

  Do not stay here

  This hotel is in a dangerous area. Our Uhaul was broken into and thousands of dollars of personal property stolen. DO NOT STAY HERE!

  A poor La Quinta property

  The surrounding area was just plain dirty and there was no good dog walking area that was clean. Previous pet parents did not pick up and neither did staff (which they should not have to). This was a popular location with many guests with pets. The location is close to the highway and very noisy. The blankets on the bed were thin and we were cold. We usually love La Quinta but this property disappointed.

• Kellie

  Ugh

  We were not pleased at all with our stay. Our room on the 3rd floor smelled like cigarette smoke and urine. If you turned the lights on the tv turned off. If the tv was on and your turned the lights off the tv turned off the microwave was stacked on top of the fridge and neither worked. The card readers outside didn't work so the doors were left unlocked so anyone could get into the hotel. We did not feel very safe especially walking the dogs at night and before sunrise as the parking lot was dark and not well lit. I gave it one bone because the poop bags were well stocked but I think it is because no one used them there was dog poop everywhere. We always clean up after our dogs and I do not understand why people don't. I'm sure it is hard to enforce but it was very tough to walk the dogs in the dark without worrying about stepping in poop. I would not stay here again and I would not recommend to anyone else. Thanks at least for trying to stock dog waste bags.

  Price is Right, But Somewhat Shabby

  This hotel has a lot of maintenance issues. Staff told me that it's getting a new owner, deal closing in January, and they are just waiting to see what will be fixed and what won't. Our room itself was fine, although the hair dryer didn't work and we had to fiddle with the door to get it open. And our key stopped working on the second day. This hotel could be cleaner. Our beds were fine, which is the most important thing, but they're definitely not fanatics about cleanliness in the common areas like elevator and hallways. I ate breakfast outside since all the inside tables were taken, and nobody had bothered to clean the tables and chairs -- so they were quite dirty, as it's a dry, dusty and windy area. We did appreciate the reasonable room cost and lack of a pet fee.

  Needs improvement

  On the plus side, room was spacious and had plenty of convenient outlets. Requested ground floor room but got 3rd floor. Check-in person not very helpful. Long waits at front desk (more staff needed). No microwave or mini fridge in room. Very dim light in bathroom and no fan. Tub drain clogged, very slow to drain. Ripped curtains on window. No adjustment option on ac. Could be cleaner.

  Do not stay here!

  Room REEKED of urine; there is no way they are shampooing these carpets if pets have accidents in them. Dog areas outside were tiny and covered in dog poop as were all the other non-designated dog areas. Power went out twice in one day and key cards were not working for a while. We threw the bolt on our room door and it was a good thing because someone tired to get in and only that bolt stopped them. Staff said they would "walk the hotel" to look around. How does that help if the key cards aren't keeping people out? The area itself was pretty iffy and everywhere is covered in garbage. Hotel was pretty full and lots of dogs and people made for a ton of noise so we were up late. Breakfast was such a short window of time and options quite limited but it didn't matter because we just wanted to get the heck out of there. The urine smell was making us ill.

  I struggle to find something good

  There was a (possible) blood stain or two on the floor when we got to our room, which made me worry for my cat and dog. There were two pet areas: one was small rocks and next to a smoking area, and the other had grass but was constantly wet from sprinklers. My corgi HATES wet grass and the rocks hurt her paws.
  The shower didn't drain well, or at all, until we got out of the shower. It reeked of smoke. Also very thin walls, so if your dog reacts to barking, be prepared for no sleep. The check in and check out were fast though.

  Needs a remodel

  Nice people, but the property desperately needs a renovation. The room furnishings, towels, pillows and bathroom are dated and tired. The hotel failed to provide a pet friendly room, in spite of a reservation made far in advance. Very disappointed!

  Filthy, poor customer service

  No sheet on one bed. The tub was filthy and did not drain. We wore plastic bags to get in and then when dirty water started backing up into the tub got out and asked for help, which we didn’t receive. We left and went to the Albuquerque Sheraton which was great and took pets and cost less. The woman staffer was defensive, unapologetic, and had no customer service skills. This place should be REMOVED from your site.

  Worst hotel I have ever stayed at

  Woke up at 5:30am to the sink and tub gurgling and dirty water backing up into them and a awful smell. It smelled like sewer water and chemicals. The hotel was dirty in the hallways.

• Martha

  Clean enough, however

  Room smelled like cigarette smoke. Was also a bit concerned to find soap left behind in shower from previous guests. Also, coffeemaker in room was missing a part, so it was nonfunctional. Otherwise it was ok.

  Good Stay

  What was good was also what was bad. Easy access to Interstate, but heard traffic all night long. A few dogs barking but not that bad. We stayed on the 3rd floor so letting the dog out to go to the bathroom was a bit of a hassle.

• Eilidh

  Don’t. Stay. Here.

  We were greeted by a friendly lady at the main desk. She was personable and welcomed my dog. The hotel is run down and dirty. The hallways needed vacuumed. The bathroom needed some bleach. The room smelled like cigarettes. The whole place needs a remodel or at the very least a good clean.

  Smells

  After a really long day of traveling with my dog the first room I walked into, the smell was so overpowering I almost vomited. I went down and the front desk guy said, “I was wondering if you were going come back down and ask to move rooms. I’ve had to move a lot of people from that area.” They moved me to another room and it was smelly but not as bad. Trash bags in the hallway and the floors. Just keep your shoes on.

  Cozy and welcoming

  Easy access (directly off freeway). They upgraded my room for free so I got one directly next to the elevator (which made taking my pups out extra easy). Staff was welcoming and check in was less than 5 minutes from arriving to getting my room key. Would stay here again if the need arose.

  La Quinta failure

  I stay at La Quinta often and am usually very pleased. Not so at this La Quinta. Front desk staff were surly and abrupt. No room service. No place for my dogs to walk. The room as ok - clean, but small. Not a La Quinta that will stay on my list.

• Jodie

  Good location

  I would probably give 3.5 bones for the hotel. It's on the freeway but we asked for a room on the pool side so we didn't hear traffic at night. Our room was clean, had a fridge, microwave and a desk. The hallway looked like it hadn't been vacuumed in a while though. The hot tub didn't work and was roped off. Breakfast was ok - typical of this type of hotel with toast, bagels, waffle maker, yogurt, etc. There was not a very big grassy area for the dogs and the sprinklers were on in the evening and again in the morning, so I had to walk my dog in the dirt. There were some people in the parking lot that probably didn't belong there. I just made sure not to walk after dark.

  Good location

  Room was nice but hotel in general is very worn down. The small couch in our room was absolutely filthy as were the tiles behind bathroom door and underneath the sink. The side parking lot backs up to I-40 and there were several homeless camps directly behind the hotel on the other side of a 5 ft fence. The area is pretty sketchy. But the bed was comfy and it’s a very convenient location

• Karen

  Good Location and large room

  Right off Hwy 40. Big room and clean. Good beds, and pretty quiet. No fridge or Microwave, and we asked about the hot tub, they said it was available but it was not. Understandable under Covid restrictions but desk staff should have been aware of that information. Shower lukewarm, fine for most. Easy to get to Old town from there, taking the alternate roads to avoid morning traffic on 40.

  Nice floor!

  I really loved sleeping on your very comfortable floor (my humans won’t let me up on the bed). Lots of room in the King Executive Suite for me to cruise around! Unfortunately, I was unable to ignore the sounds from the cars on the nearby interstate highway at night. I had restless dreams I was chasing them all night! My humans really seemed to like this place - for me and them!

  Awful check in

  Hotel itself was fine. Desk people could not problem solve a technical issue at check-in that caused me to stand at the counter for 2 plus hours while my wife and dog sat in the car.

  Clean hotel, front desk staff needs help

  Pros: The room was clean and comfortable. Convenient location near the interstate. Cons: While the staff were courteous and helpful the management needs to make sure they have at least two people to do check ins between 3-6 pm. The line got waaay too long with only one person working behind the front desk. Also the guest laundry washer wasn’t working.

  Sketchy location & hotel in needs of repair

  This hotel is in need of serious repair. The room smelled like animal urine so much so, that it took your breath away. I had to get ZEP air deodorizer from the front desk to spray in the room… one more bad scent. The fridge did not work. Black mold in the shower. Hole in the wall. Blood on the wall in the bathroom. Room just falling apart in general. It was an awful experience. Do not recommend.

  Very Average for La Quinta

  While still better than the nearby competition, this La Quinta is just average compared to other La Quinta inns. The area, and trash receptacles, is not kept up: too much trash lying about. I suppose it being at or near capacity might explain, but probably not. Room was interesting. I apparently decided not to get one with a microwave and, especially, refrigerator. My bad. Room was roomy which I liked. Desk chair was defective -- another indicator of neglect, in my view. Interesting shower (no tub; yay). Just a flat design which I liked. But, no shelves for soap, toiletries, etc. Room lighting and electrical outlet placement was mediocre. Dog exercise areas were quite good but again mostly neglected so lots of unnecessary trash. The hotel is right next to freeway so it's got a significant noise factor, but one cannot blame the hotel for that. On the other hand, the clientele was also noisy -- people and dogs up around 5:00am or so, loud talking in hallway plus barking dogs. Rude. Hotel staff, by contrast, was uniformly gracious, pleasant, and helpful. So, it's an OK stay for one night passing through, but one can almost say that about budget motels. Good staff, spacious room, decent dog area, adequately comfortable bed. On the downside: neglected maintenance, poorly designed (or maybe half designed) shower, rude clientele, noisy location. Not the usual La Quinta value.

  Not worth it

  We arrived to the hotel after 13 hours of driving on a trip only for the front desk to say they couldn’t find out reservations even with the confirmation code we provided. 20 minutes later they finally found it. Additionally, this hotel is not in a good/safe area of town. Next door to the parking lot is an empty lot of homeless people camping in tents. There was even a grown man wandering around in his boxers. We had to go buy locks to lock up the rack on top of the car because we worried about people breaking in at night since they were loitering. Breakfast was also very minimal. Bread slices and old waffles. The room was clean at least, but I don’t recommend staying here. It’s worth spending more money elsewhere to be in a better location.

• Amanda
  May 4, 2021
  It was pretty good.

  Overall good stay, clean, nice staff, not the "best" location, but right off the 40. They did give you free breakfast, the thought was in it, but the "toast" was just bread, and the "waffle" was cold. I understand it is Covid, so it is hard to prep real food. they also gave hand sanitizer so that is a plus! Overall I would stay there again. La Quinta in general are great.

• Mary
  Apr 30, 2021
  Off of the 40

  As we drove up, I was worried about our security as Homeless encampment was on the other side of the fence. At Check in I was given #312, as I opened the door (with mask on) I could smell the strong urine smell (not even sure it was animal) we turned around back down to the desk. I was given a new room on the next floor up. Thank goodness it smelled fresh.
  This LaQuinta needs an update. The carpets seemed well worn but the beds were comfortable for a 1 night stay. The 40 is next to the hotel, so if you like some freeway noise, you have it. (not bad if you are in an interior room) The potty areas were disappointing, the rocks are large for tender paws and the small grass area needed some grass. I did find more grass along the Fence next to the road. AGAIN! PEOPLE PICK UP AFTER YOUR PET!!! 😡

  Great Location for a quick stay

  We stayed here 1 night here. We driving across country and needed a place for us and the pups to relax for a night. The parking lot was occupied by a lot of oversized trucks taking up multiple spots and we had to park far from the entrance. The side door didn’t lock all the time and there was a security guard who would stand there to “keep the crackheads out” - his words.

  Other than that, the room was big, clean and a ton of space for our pups to run around in.

  Worse Than A Tent In Syria

  My military husband said he’d rather stay in a tent in Syria... This hotel is old and smelly. Shower sucked and didn’t drain well. No duvet/comforter. The“blanket”on the bed was literally just a sheet that had a design. Basic rooms don’t come with a fridge and microwave, you have to upgrade. The fridge and microwave in the upgraded room were 100 years old and not clean. Worst La Quinta we’ve stay at!

  Good, convenient place for dogs

  Stayed here passing through NM, very nice because I have a German Shepherd who is a little iffy about people and the place was very pet friendly, room on the first floor helped a lot being able to avoid busy stair cases or elevators!

  Neglected hotel hidden behind a nice facade.

  I've given 2/5 bone reviews to worse motels, but La Quinta Inns are hotels. I am rating this in comparison to other La Quintas where I've stayed and this is easily the worst.

  It's near I-40 which is convenient for the access, though locals will warn you this is a high crime area so don't keep belongings visible in your car. In fact, I suggest doing as we did and bringing everything into your room. Lock your car then double-check your doors are locked. I live in a big city and I'll tell you right now, do NOT walk alone in areas like this late at night. Stay on the hotel grounds inside the gated area and if you need to go to the gas station, drive there. Lots of shady characters hanging around in crowds at the cheaper motels nearby and the gas stations. 99/100 times there is drug, prostitution, and/or organized theft activity going down and no good will come from crossing paths with these people.

  There are many restaurants nearby but they're mostly fast food/chains. The hotel grounds are adequate: parking, plenty of areas for dogs to do their business, pet waste bins and bag dispensers. They have a cute mini-store with snacks and soda (not vending machines).

  Now for all the negative experiences. If you're going to be open during COVID and generate revenue then you still need to maintain basic functionality of your property. I'm not accepting the excuse that all these problems happened in the last year and COVID is preventing you from fixing them. First, we check-in and get our keys but the card reader of the entrance door on the other side of the hotel near our room is broken! We get to haul our luggage all the way back around the other side. So fun after a 9 hour drive. Then we walk across the entire hotel's interior to our room and the keys don't work in our assigned room! YAY I WANT TO KILL SOMEONE! Apparently multiple customers are having this problem. Whatever system is programming your room keys needs to be fixed. We get the keys fixed and now we get to enjoy the failure that is the door handles. Pushing down, like a normal door handle..., does not work. We have to either jiggle the handle several times or pull up. It's a mystery because either technique is not a guarantee at any given time??

  We got one washcloth put in our room for two people. The carpet is covered in stains. I understand pet-friendly hotels can't replace carpet constantly because it isn't financially feasible. You can still shampoo the carpet, which is also quite effective at upholding COVID protocols. These clearly haven't been cleaned in a month, possibly longer. They were very gross. The mattresses are very old, super soft, and sink in the middle. Do not stay here if you have a bad back. You've been warned.

  Great stay

  Satisfactory accommodations. Bigger than normal rooms. Loved the no pet fee!

  Great stopover on our trip

  This is a typical La Quinta, nothing extraordinary, but it was the perfect stop over for us as we traveled home for Christmas. There were TONS of dogs staying here and it was super easy to deal with the pups. Hotel wasn’t brand new or anything, but it was super clean and did the job. The bed covers were clean and fresh, none of those gross comforters that they never change between guests.

  We would definitely stay here again if we come back through the area.

  Friendly staff, ok rooms

  Friendly staff, clean enough rooms, convenient location. Probably wouldn’t be my first choice to stay in Albuquerque again but it was fine for the night. Can’t beat no pet fees and no size restriction.

  Dirty and smelly

  Place was filthy, towels were stained, floor wasn’t clean, grime on walls, smelled like someone must have Overdosed and died in the room. We weren’t able to feel comfortable and relax in the room so we hardly slept, wished we just drove through the night rather than stop there.

  Old property

  Needs some updating. Very nice staff. Gardeners need to clean up feces that dog owners neglect.

  Not great

  This particular location is in desperate need of an update or at least a deep clean. The carpets were dirty, grimy, and overall gross. The sink was cracked and the shower was moldy. There were a couple of grassy areas for the dogs to go potty, which was nice. Definitely would not recommend staying here if other hotels are available.

  Tired property

  I have stayed at nice La Quintas, but this isn’t one. It started badly by being assigned to a room that was not prepared. Then waiting at the understaffed desk to get reassigned to a room where the door lock wouldn’t open. Then waiting another 20 make minutes to learn the trick to open the door. The entire property needs repair and updating, not to mention replacement of worn out beds. It was nice to have a place that accepted dogs, but my dogs couldn’t stop smelling the carpets and corners in the room...obviously many accidents took place. I won’t be returned by to this La Quinta.

  Very busy hotel, and staff were overwhelmed.
  Basic room with no fridge or microwave., which wasn’t detailed.

  Poop in hallway outside of our door

  We were happy with our stay for the price we paid, however there was dog poop outside in the hallway of our door. The room smelled like dog pee and dog poop. I understand it being a pet friendly room but it felt unclean.

  Rough Night

  location is handy but the road noise was ridiculous. Had to leave TV on all night so we could sleep. Filthy and dirty inside room. Worst bed ever. Homeless living all around property. If we weren't so exhausted we would have left. Had a hard time finding a place to take our dogs to relieve themselves that wasn't filthy.

  Good for one night on a long road trip...

  The first room they sent me to wreaked horribly of urine and I immediately had to go ask for another room, which they gave me. The other room was much better. Blankets are very thin. This is definitely not a hotel you go to for a long stay or if you're looking for more than a bed to crash in and leave early the next day.

  Dog friendly but area sketchy

  The hotel had minimal amenities due to COVID-19. Only room coffee and no breakfast. Areas secure for walking dogs and hotel has a perimeter fence, which after spending a night in the area I can see why. Cops in the area twice, along with CSI van and ambulance. Drug activity and gunshots. If you are desperate and need an affordable place this place will do, but the area seems to be high in crime.

  Not The Best

  Convenient stop off 40 with decent pet relief grassy area out by the entrance. Hotel was a bit run down and in need of some updates. Not very comfortable beds and no fridge in room. Floors were pretty gross, dogs would not stop sniffing the years worth of stains.

• Laurie

  Very good

  I had requested 1st floor room which unfortunately they could not accommodate me, but everything else was good. I wish they would allow seniors some sort of preference because being on the 5th floor was difficult for me.

  Grass! Good location-lots of fur babies

  Only hotel around that had grass on the property. Most people in hotel had a dog, some had two. Hotel was clean, did not smell of cats/dogs. No extras-due to Covid (pool use, or breakfast). Coffee in room. Lots of hotels in the area that accepted dogs. This one had several grassy areas for our dog. People from the other hotels were actually walking across the street for their dog to be in the grass.

  Pandemic Review

  Super clean! Large dog friendly. Plenty of grass around for pup potty time. Would most definitely stay here again. No breakfast, due to Covid-19, but there is a small snack store.. Staff was friendly. Seemed quite. I’ll update after check out if I need to.

  Decent Quick Overnight Stay

  Overall we were generally satisfied. Beds were comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good however shower had mold in it and needed more thorough cleaning. Dog area was not very satisfactory not much better than stopping along the highway. Gave it at 3 because the beds were comfortable after a long day on the road but four family pet friendly hotel expected a little bit more thank you.

  Location was perfect - just off 40. Hotel was very clean, staff was courteous and helpful. Breakfast was included and had a nice variety of choices. Very dog friendly.

  Noisy hotel

  This hotel is good with dogs. Rooms on the side of the hotel facing I40 have a ton of highway noise

  Room smelled like urine

  All I can say is wow... I have stayed at a lot of La Quinta Inns and most all are really good except this one - pictures look great, lobby looks great, but the room was a disaster. The carpet had obviously been soiled on many times and smelled foul - really bad, if we hadn't just driven 13 hours we would have looked elsewhere. Windows were filthy, It looks like there is a newly renovated side of the building with numerous rooms, but it seems that all the dogs were on our floor - don't know if they didn't want dogs in their newly renovated suites. Even though almost every room had a dog, there was hardly any noise which was a big plus when you're tired. I would definitely not go back and would not recommend.

  Not bad

  Wasn't as nice a La Quinta as we've been in before, but it served our needs for that one night.

  Staff and facilities in dis array

  First i was asked if i had a pet with us, ( long day i have little patience) i referred them to my reservation 2 humans 1 dog.
  Next after issued keys go to room cannot get in , green lights visible but no entry. Return to desk notice a line but again i was tired, so as soon as the check in was finished I quickly as for either a new key or room as green light would not provide access. I was told “ lift up on handle” i was stunned. I asked how this is not in compliance with most normal doors. I was told installers messed up, but will work. They had no idea as to which rooms.
  Now on to morning, by 6:30 am the reg coffee was gone. More was going to be brewed.
  Oh my dog was happy with the clean room. I just didnt understand all rooms do not have mini fridge or microwave.
  This was our second stay in a month. This was like Bates Motel!

  Good find

  Huge, comfortable room. No pet odors. No fridge or microwave in the room, but we were able to use the microwave in the lobby/dining area. Big parking lot (doggie bags provided) to take your dog out. Not a ton of grass, but more than enough for us. The hotel is right off the highway but the room was incredibly sound proof. Short drive to Old Town Albuquerque.

  LaQuinta west Arizona

  First time we too Max traveled with us and it was really nice to find a place to stay that catered to our Max the room was very nice you wouldn’t know that any other pets had been there I would stay here again also was very nice that they don’t charge a pet fee

  Okay Hotel

  Staff was super friendly but that’s about all that was good. Rooms are outdated and the carpets make it obvious that it’s a pet friendly hotel and they look like they’ve never been cleaned. Most expensive hotel on our entire trip from SC to CA but definitely lack luster.

  Great Dog Friendly Hotel

  No dog fee, no size restriction, inexpensive and clean. The grass area had poop bags and trash can specifically for responsible owners. The room has everything you need and is clean. An easy stop

  Okay

  Well it was okay, but the pet friendly room we were in was a bit beat up. Not all the amenities others mentioned. Wierd bathroom with non locking folding
  doors like a closet. Broken sink handle, no big deal for some tired travelers and pets. Just okay and a bit beat up. A few grass areas for the dogs that served the purpose. Venturing out from the hotel on foot, look out as there are some people going through some hard times in a few spots.

  Great Pet Friendly Hotel

  Rooms were clean and large. Nice pool area with an area adjacent to the pool where pets were allowed. Staff was welcoming and breakfast area was large and not cramped. I would recommend for the price if you are here for a short stay as no fridge or microwave in our room but we did not need one for a one night stay.

  very dog friendly

  Very high marks for this place if traveling with dogs. They followed up with me twice via email after i made our reservation. We were traveling cross country with small Morkie. They have two nice grass areas for pets to relieve themselves. Hotel supplied pop bags and trash bin in those areas. Room was clean and up to date. Air worked great. You must go in and out side door with pup and not through the lobby due to the layout of the breakfast area.
