We stayed in this property for 2 nights. I never saw a cleaning staff in the hallway. I assumed most of rooms are for long term guests, i, e government paid voucher receivers. The carpet is so dirty. Music is loud , especially at night, no management intervened. I would not recommend this hotel for any travelers. For almost $300 per night, we deserve a better property and service!

Took 2 hours before your agent was able to get me into a room (Kudos to your Team!). First room had no tv, bathtub water wouldn’t stop running, and stains all over the carpet. The King Suite I was upgraded to had a moldy couch with stains and torn upholstery, paint missing from most doors, grout in shower is black from mold, not designer colored, the minifridge had not shelves. I have pictures to support everything.

Horrible Experience – Not Worth the Price I recently stayed at La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham USF, and it was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. We arrived late at night around 11:39 PM and checked out early the next morning—thankfully, we didn’t stay longer. From the moment we entered the corridor, we were hit with a horrible smell—the carpet smelled like poop, and the entire area felt filthy and unmaintained. When we entered our room, it was no better. The carpet was old, very dirty, and emitted a disgusting odor. The poor hygiene standards made us feel extremely uncomfortable. To make matters worse, we started experiencing breathing issues shortly after arriving, making it a truly unsafe and unhealthy environment. I paid $186 for one night, which is absolutely unacceptable for the condition of the hotel. At the very least, I expected a clean and safe place to rest, but this property failed on every front. Stay away from this property—it is unsafe and unhealthy. I am extremely disappointed with this experience and would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Management should urgently address these cleanliness and hygiene issues.

The whole hotel looks like it is falling apart. The baseboards running down the hallways are torn off and there is black mold on them. The tile in the bathroom looks dirty. I left my flip-flops on in order to take a shower. The rooms have a funky smell in them and the beds were extremely uncomfortable and very small.. The sheets are not soft and the pillows are half size..

This was perhaps one of the dirtiest hotels that I have ever stayed at. Carpets smelled of must, bed linens not clean, the bed sagged deeply in the middle and a non-smoking room smelled of smoke. The front desk politely gave me another room (I will take must over smoke any day). The phone line in the room had been cut. I witnessed a housekeeper eating lunch in a window well by the elevator. Heavy marijuana smoke in the parking lot. We did not feel safe going out to the car at night. The elevator was slow and filthy. It goes on and on. This La Quinta was a Wyndham Hotel??? Hard to believe. I won’t be staying here or at a Wyndham ever again.
