Homewood Suites by Hilton La Quinta

We have been coming here for several years. Nice rooms, friendly staff but unfortunately the devil is in the details. The biggest issue is the lack of hot water in some rooms. We complained about the hot water issue on the first afternoon of our stay. The maintenance man who came promptly empathized and admitted that in some rooms, the only way to get warmer water is to run all the taps for 5-10 minutes. What a waste of water but he was right after a while the water would get almost hot. Hard to believe you can’t install supplementary instant hot water heaters in rooms that need it. While we’re complaining - rooms and hall carpets can do with regular vacuuming. Crumbs under our kitchen table remained for days. Breakfasts seem stingier with less quality bagels and rolls and Monday to Thursday “light dinners” have become “small plates” and “light snacks”. We will keep coming back because the rates are reasonable, staff friendly, rooms comfortable and the pool lovely.

Everything was perfect. We arrived at the Hotel early and Jasmine was fantastic in finding an available room for us. Our stay was comfortable and quiet. Breakfast is delicious, plenty of choices, and all the ladies do such a great job during the breakfast hours.

I had never stayed at a Homewood Suites before this and was interested to try the brand. I was delightfully surprised. This location has a nice pool (I'm a swimmer), and the hot tub beside it had good jets and temperature. The room was very clean and quiet, and the bed and bedding were inviting and comfortable. The kitchenette is adequate but I wouldn't have done any actual cooking in it. There's a full size refrigerator that worked well and was quiet, and the microwave also worked well. Nice flat screen TV but not a great variety in channels. I only went for a one night stay but wish I could have stayed another night because it was restful. The hot breakfast is a nice touch with scrambled eggs and although I don't eat most of the other breakfast foods there was a good variety of things to choose from. The dining area is very inviting and the outdoor patio very close if one chooses to have breakfast outside.

This one was welcoming, a good location for us and people were pleasant. We had an issue with hot water not being hot in our room during the day, but it was fine in the morning for our showers. We used the hot tub, the first time in a long time we decided to use that element, and the water was not hot there either. Not sure what the problem is there. The breakfast was good, as always and they use real plates and utensils, not paper and plastic. Check in and out were easy, parking plentiful and overall a nice stay.

Second time staying at this hotel. The rooms are fully upgraded and nicely furnished. Very clean and organized. We stayed here once and came back a second time. The free continental breakfast is really nice. Can't wait to return for a third time!
