La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Baton Rouge Denham Springs

Nice Hotel on outskirts of Baton Rouge

Clean and new. Staff very responsive. Everything in good working order. Pool is relatively large (for a hotel). It looked very inviting, but a little late in the year to swim. It is also well screened from surrounding properties and hotel lobby. The breakfast hostess was extremely helpful and courteous. Property has undeveloped land on one side, and even numbered rooms look out on this wooded area. A little nicer than the totally built up areas.

Breakfast lacked some healthy items. Suggest more fruit. Suggest having oatmeal pre-made rather than packets. Coffee supplied 24/7, but no tea! No tea at breakfast, either. There was one unsettling incident of a loud row between (apparently) a worker and manager. This was out of sight, but anyone on the first floor could probably hear it. Maybe this can't be avoided on rare occasions, but it spoils the ambience, to put it mildly. Seating was a little unusual in the breakfast area, with two big tables seating 8 each and only 3 tables seating 2 each.
