I chose this La Quinta because I was traveling with my small dogs and La Quinta allows pets in the rooms with no deposit required. Initially I was concerned about the safety of this location after reading other reviews. The hotel is located in an industrial area near the Memphis airport and there are lots of trucks all around but I felt perfectly safe staying there. The parking lot is access-controlled and requires a code to gain entry.
We were assigned a first floor non-smoking room which was nice so we could take the dogs in and out easily. The beds were very comfortable, the tv actually had a very good picture and a good choice of cable channels. The a/c worked fine and were comfortable for the 2 nights we were there.
The only issue I noticed with the room was in the bathroom. The toilet did not always flush very well and the sink was very slow to drain.
The front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. I needed to find a drug store late and night and the night front desk manager was able to direct me to a nearby Walgreens store.
The breakfast each morning consisted of eggs, sausage, biscuits, juices, waffles, cereal and yogurt and was good.
Overall, this is a property I would recommend and would definitely stay there next time I am in Memphis. The only downside is the location as there is not much in the way of restaurants nearby. There is however a Kettle Pancake House adjacent to the hotel.
