We arrived at 0230 eastern time and fell asleep shortly thereafter. At 0930 housekeeping banged on the door. When inquired about this I was told this is their practice. Housekeeping does not know who's checked out unless the knock(dead asleep it sounded like a banging). Sounds like they may do this to wake everyone up so they can get everyone out before checkout at noon. The rooms need to be updated and it was ok but needs a good scrub down. The mattresses were comfortable. I will NEVER EVER stay at this hotel again. read more

Took a quick trip out of town and decided to stay at the La Quinta in Dothan on Ross Clark Circle. Hotel was clean and room was nice, but out TV was horrible. I do to a hotel to relax in the evening and like to watch TV and have a TV on during the night help me to sleep. Out TV would only stay on for about 15 minutes then go back to a start menu ALL NIGHT LONG. I called front desk all they said was turn it off the wait 15 minutes and turn back on..I did this many many times, I slept horrible as did my husband. Told the front desk when we came down for breakfast and Donna (desk Clerk) told us that they just switched to new TV Service the day before and had no idea what to so about it. I dont think i will stay with another LaQuinta again. My stay should have been better and i paid good money i quess to try and work on the TV and front desk really didnt care. read more

Check in went well. Took th elevator to 2nd floor and BAM! Overwhelming smell of deodorant. This led to a 15 minute sneezing fit. It was so overwhelming that every time I opened the door to the room I started sneezing. It was just tooooo much of whatever they used. Greenspace for dog was full of fire ants and burrs. Will not be back. read more

The worst experience with a hotel ever. I called the number on the LA Quinta in Dothan. I placed a reservation over the phone. When I arrived 30 minutes later to check in I was told that the credit card on my reservation did not match with the credit card I entered while checking in. When I questioned this I was given a contract to sign with a completely different credit card than mine. All of a sudden with my bank on the phone , the desk clerk says this was a virtual credit card and it was OK to sign. In addition they wanted me to sign a contract stating that if I checked out before 9:30 am without letting the desk clerk know the night before I would be subject to an additional $250 charge. We left the hotel without checking in on my banks advice. 5 hours later I get a reciept from the LA Quinta for a day's charge. Will report as fraud. read more

Nice, clean, perfectly adequate hotel! The staff were extremely nice and greeted you every time you came in and out the door - a lot more pleasant than at many high star hotels I have stayed in. The decor and artwork is very eclectic and strange. And the biscuits and gravy at the complimentary breakfast bar were AMAZING!!!!! All in all, a nice stay in Dothan for a good price. read more

La Quinta by Wyndham Dothan - Lobby - Hotels Near Me - Dothan, Alabama

It is nice enough for the price. It has a great location and the rooms are spacious. It has a small but functional gym and a pool. The rooms have a small fridge and decent flat screen TVs. The staff is fine. They serve a free breakfast in the morning that is basic but fine. The lobby and some of the floors have a strong funky smell. A mix of musty and cleaning chemicals. The rooms have been clean, but I did observe several stains on the sheets which makes me feel a little bit grossed out. Overall I would certainly stay here again. read more

La Quinta by Wyndham Dothan - Hotels Near Me - Dothan, Alabama

Stayed here during the evacuation from hurricane Milton. Being 78 yr old. It was perfect. Clean, the food was hot and the manager and employees were very helpful and pleasant. Convenient to many restaurants etc. read more

How I get myself in these situations is bc I let someone else book the hotels. There is road work out front which isn't a big deal except we passed up the entrance bc there were cones every where and we had to circle back. My main issue was the bed. The room had a stench to it as well. We requested to change rooms bc my bedsheets were very wrinkly and I found hair on the pillow. (I should've taken photos but I didn't bc I wasn't going to say anything) They graciously switched rooms for us but the new bed was equally wrinkly so I assume that's just how it's supposed to be. I'm going to suck it up and stay bc of work but I really wanna leave. The front desk was wonderful though. Oh the pool has green algae throughout the whole pool. From the third floor room I was able to see the whole pool isn't swimmable. The breakfast was underwhelming. Everything in a three hole crock pot but there were two bug zappers on the windows with a good amount of flies at the bottom. So I appreciate the effort. This wouldn't be my second choice but I'd stay here again. read more

Price GOUGING During a Hurricane!!! August 2023 My grandson, wife and 2 small sons, had to leave Florida because of Hurricane Idaila. There were no rooms anywhere we searched hotel after hotel, city after city, he finally found the last one(hotels words) here. These people charged them $256 for an $80-90 room. My kids did not have much extra, they had no choice but to stay there. I hope you will choose another place to stay, it won't help my family, but will definitely hurt this sorry hotel. read more

Newly renovated. 99 percent done. Excellent, free, fast, internet service Normal breakfast had returned. They even had bone biscuits for dogs. Everything clean: The room, the bathrooms and the common areas. Construction mess cleaned up. Parking spots were a little hard to find. Ask for a room that does not face the road. There is a fair amount of road noise. One thing that struck me was, after eating out at a steakhouse down the street, we were told, "Welcome Back!" by the desk clerk. I was surprised and pleasantly so. read more

I'm paying $100 for a hotel - I don't expect the best, but I'd hope for a clean room. I mean...the photos speak for themselves. Please choose literally anywhere else to stay. Stains on the sheets, stains on the chair, boogers (???) on the wall. The hotel smells disgusting and the bathroom makes me feel like I should wear flip flops, gym/dorm-style. read more

This is an awesome hotel if you are traveling with a dog. Actually it's pretty good if you don't have a dog . Room and bath are nice sized and clean. Staff is friendly. Breakfast has a nice selection. I had biscuits and gravy and it was tasty. read more

The absolute loudest hotel I've ever stayed at!! I finally turned off the AC to spare some of the noise! The drag racing outside the window was the added touch! what clinchEd it was the clerk paying more to her phone than to me holding my credit card ready to pay! read more

They are just finishing renovations and place looks great. Check in waz quick and clerk was great. Good price and they honored my special request I emailed them about. So why a 3 ? Grounds were covered in construction debris i.e. broken glass in the pet walk. Our bathroom ceiling was patched and looked horrible. Found a smoked cigar on the bed headboard and outside doors were left open making the lobby and hallways miserable to be in. On the positive side, they allow pets no charge, good hot breakfast and comfortable seating area. Great staff great location. Will stay again hopefully they will get better when the remodel is done. read more

Less than satisfied with this stay, especially in the COVID world. I appreciate they are upgrading their hotel but it was messy and just felt unclean. Especially since the mask ordinance was not enforced even though it's still required by the state. Floor was mopped. Mirror wasn't even clean. Would not recommend for any reason on that it's right off 231. read more

La Quinta by Wyndham Dothan - Single wipe of the remote. - Hotels Near Me - Dothan, Alabama

Witnessed an employee yell at and threaten a guest who he blamed for disturbances caused by other guests. I had witnessed her and her 3 young children standing quietly and speaking to another guest in the hallway prior to the incident. The behavior of the employee was out of control and frightening. So far, the only reply to my complaint about the employee's behavior has pbeen to say they took care of it by expelling the guest. Horrendous that La Quinta and Wyndham permits this behavior. read more

When we first got there the impression of the room was not great. The carpet was torn and dirty and the room smelled a bit musty. The real horror of this stay was finding the bed bugs! Yes, bed bugs. We awoke with bites and blood. We started looking for the culprit and we found bed bugs! read more

This hotel has management problems. The hotel was OK but service was poor and getting thru to management was like trying to get an audience with royalty. Come on.... read more

I stopped after driving from Florida and needed a place to rest my head. The rate was reasonable at $75.00 a night for a walk in. The room I was given was a 2 bed, non-smoking room. However I could tell that someone had either ignored this rule or someone near by was smoking as the scent of cigarette smoke was faint. The lobby was clean, the receptionist was nice, and apparently I was tired as I left my keys on the desk and wandered off in search of food. They were there when I came back. Good thing as I really didn't feel like becoming a resident of the "great state of Alabama". I slept well enough, the shower had good flow and in the morning I availed myself of their breakfast bar. Powdered eggs, sausage and make your own waffles. Not a bad selection, but not the best I've ever had either. I missed the fruit and boiled eggs I've had at other la Quintas, but what can you do? read more

The staff at this hotel is friendly and obviously well-trained. The rooms are very clean, beds are comfortable and they are well-appointed. The free breakfast is terrific. The location is great too, a Panera is within easy walking distance, as is a Publix grocery store. Their pet-friendly policy is great, too. Only one criticism of my experience. The Wi-Fi may be free, but it was very weak. None of our devices could maintain a connection, resulting in a frustrating experience. Maybe the hotel was experiencing a short-lived problem. I did not mention it to the staff to give them the chance to address it. They were so nice, I am sure they'd have helped if possible. The Panera has free Wi-FI, too, so a quick walk next door got us online when we needed it. I would and will happily return to this hotel. read more

La Quinta by Wyndham Dothan - View from the pool. - Hotels Near Me - Dothan, Alabama

Nice hotel, clean for the most part expect for the sofa in my room. Great water pressure in the shower. Good place to stay for someone who's passing through read more

The front desk was friendly and check in was a breeze. I arrived early, my mistake, the room I had reseeved wasn't ready but she offered another room which I gladly accepted. She chatted while checking me in. The rest of the staff? Looked at you like they wished you would simply dissappear. Stone faced, and a little rude. The promised "high speed internet that doesn't feel like hotel internet" was actually worse. A big part in choosing this room was the promised internet connection. It is kind of vital to my needs. I couldn't stay connected but for a minute before it would disconnect.But if internet is not as important then you would be fine. The rooms where pretty clean. The bed was a little old. The springs are worn out. Just an average hotel with nothing spectacular. I do think it is a little over priced. read more

If you can get past the fact that this place is a dump, then you'll love the shower and the towels, but little else. The carpet in this place was filthy - not just dirty - filthy to the backing. There was a large tear in the carpet in our room. The HVAC was extremely noisy. We stayed here last year about the same time and it was nice then, but now it needs major renovation. read more

The staff were pleasant. Nice room. Appeared clean, however I found hair in the tub and couldn't find how to turn the shower off to run a bath. There was a pillowcase missing, and the air conditioner was very loud. The toilet seat was cheap plastic and was loose so it slid sideways. The floor lamp didn't work. read more

Our room was pretty bad: The phone didn't work, when I looked to be sure it was plugged in, the wire was frayed. The coffee maker was missing a part, the front desk couldn't get me a workable one, so no coffee. The door of the refrigerator only opened by jamming it against the hinge of it's cabinet and forcing it open. The refrigerator's freezer door was missing, all of our fresh foods froze. There was a large rectangle of carpeting at the end of the bed that had been torn out, and a patch that was laid in the hole was a different size than the hole. Breakfast was horrible, some kind of powdered eggs were the only protein choice, everything else was out. I was grateful that the employees were kind and as helpful as they could be, given that they didn't have the resources to fix any of the problems. read more

Disappointing experience. I am a big La Quinta fan, but this one misses the mark. The room was OK, though the AC didn't keep up even at 88 (which is not really hot for this part of the country). The breakfast lacked LaQs usual cooked eggs, no yogurt, breads were stale every day. We reported a burned out bedside lamp on two separate days but it never got fixed. "Oh yes, I will remind him" is not good customer service. The pool area's cleanliness left a lot to be desired. And when I tried to print my boarding pass, the printer in the business center was totally screwed up and the desk clerk (a different one) said, "There's nobody here who knows how to do that, you will have to wait until tomorrow." Not a lot of help when the plane is waiting! But OK, I got a great seniors rate on the LaQ website, so I guess it wasn't too terrible. But there are lots of other hotels in the area - I'd recommend you try one of them instead. read more

Our dog was a happy guy in this place. There were many dogs in this place as you could tell down the hallway and out in the pee zones. But you could not hear the other dogs in your room. The carpets were worn down in a number of places, but for a dog person this hotel was great. read more

Quiet, clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. Very nice breakfast selection. Great location and love that it's pet friendly. Feels like home. read more

If you need a room for a meeting that is reasonably priced, La Quinta has always been there for us. Whether it be for your business, for civic, or for relgious services it is perfect for a group of group up to 50. Great location on the Ross Clark Circle near 231 North. read more

The hotel seemed very nice. It is pet friendly. I was hit with the smell of cigarette smoke when I entered the building which I didn't not like. I would think that if a hotel had a smoking floor it would not be the bottom floor, but maybe the top floor. Floors 2 - 4 are no smoking floors. Once I got off on the floor it smelled a lot better. The hotel Wi-Fi is very week and took forever to load when it was working The rooms are clean refrigerator, microwave, alarm clock. The lamp on the night stand had a plug in but did not work if the light was one... Super weird and inconvenient. They do have a store down stairs and in case you need drinks or snacks. I would return and stay again. read more

My husband and I are staying here on his business trip. I came along to relax and be with our dog. We chose this hotel because they accept your pet, charge free! That is amazing news for us, because we love traveling with our pets. The rooms are clean and smell nice. It's a little warm and muggy walking the hallways to your room, but that didn't bother me. There are flat-screen tvs and free WiFi. The staff has been very friendly. Just don't take your pet onto the carpet near the breakfast area, for health code reasons. Outside there are areas for your pet to go potty, and they have waste stations where you can get a bag and dispose of your pets waste. (Which is necessary because it can transmit disease. Props to the hotel for providing this for their guests). Plenty of parking. There is a nice outdoor pool, and lounge area- where you can use the hotel grill. We will be choosing LaQuinta again in the future for Sure! There is plenty of places to go around the hotel, even several places close enough to walk to. Shopping places, eating, etc. Waffle House is right outside the hotel. Panera Bread is also walking distance and they have a drive through as well. The ONLY complaint I have is the way you have to pull out and turn into the hotel, there isn't a caution light, so you have to be very careful. read more

La Quinta by Wyndham Dothan - Piper just lounging in the room. - Hotels Near Me - Dothan, Alabama

Last minute business trip had me staying at this hotel without a reservation and I walked in and accepted the room sight unseen based upon the recommendation of another chain with down the street which was sold out. Getting into the hotel is somewhat convoluted although it sits on a busy intersection one has to navigate through a couple other businesses to get access into their parking lot. As other commentators have spoken about the odors in the room mine had the same older and one is not able to open the windows at the hotel been since I was just staying here one night I went to Publix and picked up some air freshener and spray the room while I was out at dinner. Front desk was somewhat helpful in the check-in check-out process and the breakfast was on par with most Continental breakfasts is although I did not see any hot food items I think there were some available and there is a number of tables for guests to use in the morning. Makers are available on alternate floors and I found them to be working although the quantity of ice sparse. There was an outdoor swimming pool and business area neither of which I fully investigated. There is a missing sewer drain out cap in the parking lot which emits a very strong sewage odor that does need to be addressed by the hotel management. read more

FILTHY AND DISGUSTING. Avoid at all cost, unless you like paying 100 bucks for a room that resembles a homeless shelter.

My wife and I came for a wedding and didn't have any where to change since check in was at 3pm but this nice young man allowed us to check in early so that we can change for the wedding since we drove 5.5 hours. The hotel was surprisingly clean, we actually smelled bleach and cleaning products when we walked in. The floors were clean. The breakfast was good. The staff was really friendly. It was quiet. Even though dogs are allowed we didn't hear them or anyone else. Apparently smoking is allowed in some rooms but we didn't smell smoke. We needed extra wash cloths and received it in less than 5 mins. For this price, you can't beat this good experience. If we are ever in Dothan again, we'll be staying here. My name is James and I approve this message. read more

Stopped by this week on the way down with my service dog. They placed me in a room on the first floor that appeared to be a room they use only for people with animals. The carpet was weirdly discolored green by the door, carpet peeling up, a slightly strange odor, and mildew on the ceiling in the bathroom. The sink sprayed water all over the place while used. We paid for an overpriced motel 6, but were tired and just wanted to sleep. I did not want to walk from the bathroom to the couch in the room with bare feet as the carpet looked extremely nasty. read more

Stayed here for one night, as we arrived in town a day early and had weekly reservations elsewhere. Exterior appearance lead us to believe that it was not the most updated hotel. Upon entering the lobby and finding the good state of the rooms - this made up for exterior first impressions. The room was clean and spacious. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Super close to shopping and restaurants. You can walk to many of those places if you need to. Breakfast offerings were more substantial than many other hotels and were actually good. Fitness room was adequate. Did not use the pool, it is outdoor and was seasonally closed. We often stay at La Quinta because they do allow our pets. We traveled without pets this time, but will always frequent them when possible simply because they are pet friendly. read more

Great service very nice and clean rooms good breakfast. Also allowed pets and that was wonderful!

Been here 2 nights, so far.Have the truck in the shop. Checked in on Saturday Aug 30.2014 . Check in went great. This building is 5 story high. Behind the Waffle House.The place is clean,noticed that on checkin. Then off to the room. IT was clean and cold. Put me in room 324,on the west end.. Nice room. Now for the breakfast. It was not bad. It had ,juice and milk,coffee.Donuts,bagels,toast. You can make your own waffles, had eggs, sausage,bacon.And soft biscuits,and gravy... Now for the bed its on a high frame ,and was a nice one to boot. read more

Disappointed to say the least. The front desk staff were helpful but seemed disorganized and confused. We paid for two nights and had to remind them multiple times, they even had to issue us new key cards because they still tried to check us out early. The room had a damp mildew smell, the carpets and sheets felt damp as well. The "high speed internet" was too slow to even load basic websites much less stream cartoons for our daughter. read more

I have stayed here before and it needed some TLC but now it needs a makeover. I stay here because I have a pet but I WILL be looking for another option. While the staff is super nice, the place stinks, literally. My room smells. I have to work to get my door closed. The bathroom lights flicker, the pillows seem like Walmart specials and there are stains on the bedspread, chair and carpet. The stairwells are dirty and nasty smelling. The secured doors requiring a hotel card to get in are all broken. Anyone can walk in at any time. Sadly the price does not reflect a run down place. I stay at many LaQuintas and this is the worst, by far. This is the last time for this since the owner is failing to maintain it. read more
