If u don't need to sleep at night and can tolerate noise throughout the day and night. Then this is the hotel for you. It's very noisy here and especially at night hearing the trucks passing by. The hotel is off the I -5 hwy and main road. Plus the heater/air-conditioner is very Loud. So we had to turn it off. Then it's stuffy. We had a suite, the living room was very dark. It needed at least another lamp. Bathroom door was very loud to open and close it. Food was poor quality. Couldn't eat it. Coffee was warm. Now I need to catch up with my sleep after 2 nights of this. Sorry to write this but I needed to share my experience.

The staff is very kind BUT this is the dirtiest hotel I've ever stayed at in my entire life! It smells TERRIBLE!! Not to mention the pool is disgusting looking and looks like you might get a fungal infection from swimming in it. I legitimately had to cover my nose as I entered the hallway from the elevator on our floor. It smells like mold and feces... my clothes lingered the smell of must after leaving the hotel.

I was greeted at late night check in by kind staff. My car was secure in the lot. Clean room. Quiet and didn't feel stuffy. I didn't get to swim in the pool, but it looked clean. The breakfast was decent. The check out staff, Gary was really rude. Horrible attitude in the end. Everything was fine until I had to encounter this guy. Banged on the door over and over despite me calling for late check out. Just absurd. I've stayed at hotels all over the world. I've never had housekeeping press me so hard like that. Chill Gary.

I've stay here many times over the years. Hotel was usually clean and accommodating. This time, will be my last ever stay here, and I suggest others find another hotel unless they say want to deal with a bunch of stress and be. The first two rooms we were put in were dirty, appeared as though it hadn't been vacuumed, dog hair on the beds, and crumbs and trash on the floor, nor were things dusted. We got into a third room, and went to bed. Woke up at 5 am and there were cockroaches in the bathroom. I didn't know they were cockroaches, as I've never seen them, but google is wonderful is helping identify things. I killed 8 cockroaches. All sizes. Big, baby, and in between. Went downstairs and the young gentlemen at the front desk was extremely helpful and accommodating, but he was getting ready to leave. The next person that was there to help, compensated me 5,000 Wyndham Points and $10 in quarters to wash my laundry. Insane. My skin was crawling due to the bugs I just found, and I didn't even want to stay. I thought for sure they would try to make things better in SOME WAY, but it's obvious they didn't want to. I was moved to another room, on the top floor, that appeared much cleaner. I decided that we would stay the night again, as I couldn't find another place in the area for the night, and wouldn't get a refund. Later when I went downstairs, The girl at front says "Someone says those look like Beetles"...OK?! I replied they weren't, as they were clearly cockroaches of all ages, and that meant there was an infestation and they needed to deal with it. Another girl chimed in to tell me that they would contact me with info about what to do and watch out for with the bugs, as they were having "The Orikin Mancone out". They never called. They were laughing as I walked away. My 15 year old says "They just think you're a Karen mom!" I told her no, "They truly just didn't care!!" The hotel needs a deep cleaning, desperately. The floors and walls are dirty, and this is in the common areas. There was even a dead bug inside the cup they leave for drinking. The hotel needs upkeep, badly. Don't get me started on the old man swimming naked in the pool that my 7 year old spotted, and the front desk didn't care about! I will never come back. ALSOBreakfast was subpar, and WiFi barely worked

Breakfast was overrun with football players with most everything gone. Desk said we we get discount on bill. Upon checking out clerk said she have to check with manager for exact amount and would credit our credit card. Manager called 2 days later and offered reward points. When I said this wasn't OK she hung up. There was dog crap 10 feet from entrance for hours and drug paraphernalia in parking lot. Room was OK

Attempted to check in on Aug 11 in the evening. The clerk/mgr at the desk could not get her system up and running. After numerous restarts it finally was able to get up and running. Then she could not get the credit card machine up and running. Again multiple restarts. Then as her visible frustration was growing more and more guests were appearing in the lobby for check in. She then could not get the room key machine to work. Again multiple restarts and phone calls to her manager or tech line... she walked out. Correct. She walked out and vacated her post and the hotel. The hotel was absent of any hotel employee or representative. Not sure what to do my gf and I and the other guests attempted to make calls to La Quinta to report the issue and to see if there was anyone that could come down. The hotline had no direct numbers or could not get in contact with anyone. After about 2 hours of hoping someone would show we decided to call other places. We were able to get another reservation at another hotel...so we left. La Quinta Tumwater is now denying my full refund to priceline. Stating they have cannot refund a full amount. Their employee literally walked out of her job and left a lobby full of people in the hotel with no staff and no way of getting the rooms we paid for. Appalling.

My biggest thing is clean. I bring a black light with me every time I go to hotels. The bed was very clean. Very little dusting needed in detail areas. The rooms are very nice. The tub had some stains but I am not sure they would come off. The breakfast was okay. Waffle maker not working properly. They had hard cooked eggs, biscuits and gravy, yogurt, fruit oatmeal and cereal. Not much for a vegan but there were some bagels,etc. did not see any other milk options. I could hear traffic but did not bother me. My 150 lb dog was very comfortable enjoying the other queen bed. She got a few eggs with her breakfast so she was happy. I would definitely stay here again. Although, the pool was being worked on or something so unusable. I think when facility's are out of order the price should be reduced. Has a small fridge, microwave and coffee maker. That is always a plus.

Facts Hot tub was filled in with cement ages ago never to return. Clearly states on their website and Google maps that they do. 100% would not have worked. Had they not completely misrepresented. Also, don't be fooled into thinking that they have a restaurant. They don't. They offer a complementary week sauce, Buffay that they promote and rave about. Yeah it's pretty womp womp. Those two things completely misrepresented the entire experience and in short created a subpar experience. Additionally, but less troublesome, as others have mentioned, there is zero public usable outdoor space. It's basically a giant concrete toilet cave next to a freeway. Shame on the manager that could ever bring themselves to fill up a hot tub with cement because they're so fucking lazy. They don't want to keep it clean. And then lie about it online. You would get half the bookings you do if and when you update info online. Please do so you seem less shady. Thumbs down for sure. Go to the Garden Inn just down the road. It's what this place wants to be for $10 more a night.

I am so upset with this Tumwater La Quinta. I booked my room for 4 nights. On the day before checkout I was in the shower. The door opened and a man was in my room looking into the bathroom. I was so scared for my life. I starting yelling to get out of my room. He would not leave. I kept yelling. I finally had to get out of the shower and slam the door in his face. I was in tears when I called the front desk. I then went down to talk to them in person after I was dressed. They apologized and said there was a glitch in their system and they would counsel the man who did this. I said he needs to be fired. They also said they would remove the fee for two nights for compensation for their wrong doing. They charged me anyways as if they support this unsafe behavior. This hotel is a hotel of lies. Disgusting lies.

This was a great stay. The room was clean, the service was great. The pool was a nice space. I will be going back.
