La Quinta Inn El Paso Cielo Vista

Pros: The bed was comfortable, and my room in the back of the building was quiet.

Cons: The La Quinta I thought Kayak was booking me into is on the northwest end of town where my business was. I had only been looking at hotels in that immediate area, so I'm not sure why Kayak sent me to east El Paso, but I didn't notice it until I arrived at the northwest hotel and was then sent 16 miles across town. Type of things I specifically stay at La Quinta to avoid: 1. The screen in my window was dislodged, but I was able to fix it. 2. The bathtub was dirt-stained. 3. The shower head needed replacing. 4. La Quinta breakfasts are usually better than this, but of course, I did get the room for a surprisingly low rate!

Getting what you paid for

Pros: The price was the selling point as I paid $70 for a room and I got a $70 experience. It is a motel that is right off the highway and next to a strip club. While my room was quiet, it was still a little unnerving to park my car there and have the door of my room exposed in such a busy area. Room was pretty clean. Found a hair on the towel in the bathroom and the tub was stopped up so water looked around my feet while I showered. Honestly location was the biggest draw back for me as it kept me on edge most of the night. Don't have anything horrible to say but won't be going back either.

Cons: Location
