La Quinta Inn & Suites - accommodation in Cortez

The room was quite spacious and included a small table and chair alongside the entertainment center and bureau. I liked that the bathroom sink and vanity are located outside of the bathroom to allow simultaneous use. There were places to sit on the second floor above the lobby, including several spots around a fireplace of sorts. The only downside was the parking area is a bit of a walk in the dark if arriving after sunset.

The building is undergoing an upgrade so the top floor was closed of. Some of the walls were marked for removal/replacement. With all that going on the placecwas very clean. Our room was great. The heating system was very quiet. We coild hear the kids in the family next door, but it wasn't awful. The breakfast was ample with many choices. We would definitely go back.

I go on roadtrips and stay at many motels. If I can, I always like to choose a local option and not a chain. I find that local options go above and beyond to compete with the chains and this place was no exception. The room was very comfortable and I enjoyed the amenities that the motel offered. Bath tub, comfy bed, k-cups, many continental breakfast options, and dog friendly. They even had a little dog run for my husky to sniff around. I also enjoyed the 50s/60s kitschy atmosphere. It’s places like this that make roadtrips fun and memorable.
