text: We usually stay at the LaQuinta in Scottsdale when we're in town. Since we had to be at the courthouse early in the morn I booked a room for mom and I at the LaQuinta on Thomas. Bad Idea. When I pulled up, felt like I was bringing my mom along with me on an early evening drug score at the local dingey motel. But it was LaQuinta! We were outta there with the quickness!\n\nDrove up the 17 a couple exits and saw the Residence Inn and my mom practically turned the steering wheel herself and yelled, \"GET OFF HERE!!\" Just kidding. We were anxious for a comfortable room, safe place.. and we were starving!\n\nOur AAA rate dropped us down 40 bucks. LaQuinta only knocked off 10.. which still would've costed about $99. For that dive?!?!\n\nThere were white picket fences around the AC boxed outside the room which added a comfy-cozy touch to the place. The room was a cute studio with a kitchen. They even go grocery shopping for you! Breakfast was the works. Sausage, waffles, scrambles, fruit... none of that continental carbo breakfast crap. \n\nComfortable atmosphere, cozy rooms, great night sleep before a stressful day. Thank you, Residence Inn! To top it all off, our court-case concluded victorious! Yippeeee!
