La Quinta Inn & Suites Brunswick

Have never seen more dogs traveling with people ever in my life. Checked in at 5 in evening the common area still had breakfast food/​garbage all over the floors. Barking dogs, place smells like old dog ass! I am sure the dog crazy owners let them in the beds. So I was a bit creeped out.
Never again at this place.

I will be staying here again.
This La Quinta has a lot going for it.
It’s very inexpensive. At less than $ 60 a night on average, you can get a nice size king bedroom with a microwave, coffee machine and a refrigerator in the room.
It has easy access to a whole host of eateries right off the highway. Granted, it’s a little away from the city center. But if you got this far, you probably have a car and therefore transportation isn’t an issue.
It’s within walking distance of a Starbucks and a Waffle House.
There’s a Cracker Barrel next-​door that gets jam packed with senior citizens who come to a halt after plodding down Interstate 95 from who knows where. Seriously, I walked by the Cracker Barrel a couple of times wondering if it had been rented out for some sort of party. Nope, just the 55 and over crowd enjoying their soon-​to-​be crash into a carb coma.
There’s also a pool on site at under 6 feet deep. But it’s not heated. Bummer.
The hotel is pet friendly. Being a pet owner and a lover of pets, this pleases me to no end. Owners, however, can be very irresponsible here. You may hear dogs barking on and on, even though there is a policy against leaving your pet alone in the room. Also, I saw a couple of puddles on the floor before the staff could clean up because some irresponsible person didn’t have the human decency to clean up after their companion. Ridiculous.
Breakfast is subpar. Mostly continental, though they do have waffles. But there are plenty of breakfast options nearby if you don’t want to bother with the skimpy offerings.
Back to the room: the bed is insanely comfortable! I had four days of work on my dissertation, and there were too many days I did not want to get out of that bed! Perfect balance of plush and firm with cozy bedding.
Also the room’s cooling and heating unit is quite robust.
So, yes, mostly an excellent stay with wonderful accommodations. Perfect for the interstate traveler.

Horrible hotel, smelly, check in process pathetic, not accommodating. Will NEVER stay at a La Quinta again.

Nice rooms, helpful and friendly staff AND Cracker Barrel is a short walk next door to stretch your legs! CLEARLY my dogs approve

Allows pets. Doesn’t smell like pets but has really strong odor from air freshener & carpet shampoo. Staff is nice :) only 3 pillows per bed

This was my first time staying at a La Quinta. I was very impressed with this hotel overall :
* The staff is incredibly friendly. They are very hospitable and make you feel like they really want you to be at their hotel.
* The rooms are very spacious and cleanly. They have a desk area for people who wish to get some work done. There is a nice vanity with a sink outside of the bathroom so women and put on their makeup and such. Bed are very comfortable.
* The bathrooms and very clean and look updated. The shower had a nice clean shower curtain on it and pretty decent water pressure
* WiFi and breakfast are included when you book a room
I was very pleased and most likely will be staying here again.

Very pleasant experience. Staff very helpful. Room was clean and neat. Rate was very reasonable. They are «pet friendly». Breakfast was exactly what you would expect for a quick bite. Would stay here again. La Quinta is a good hotel and an excellent value.

Let me start off by saying, my husband and I review practically everywhere we go shopping, eating, where we stay etc… And we rate as fairly as we can if you see our other reviews.
Now, we booked this hotel because my husband was going to be going to the federal law enforcement training center here in Georgia for his job, and we are stayingfor almost 3 weeks. We are currently still here but I’ve got to say this is the worst la Quinta we have ever stayed at. We travel a lot and I mean from California to all the states in between getting to Florida including Georgia and we’ve ALWAYS stayed at a la Quinta cause they are the most reasonably priced and still decent looking. This one here in Brunswick however was none of that. Apart from all the employees here being very nice, this place smells soooo bad, and the tv channels were the most limited ever. All the previous la quintas we’ve atayed at had DVD players to at least rent or more channels. My husband had suggested the Microtel in Brunswick sinc they offered the free breakfast with more options than la Quinta, more tv channels, DVD player, and even this snack thing at night to mingle and get to know other people staying at the hotel. It even appears Nicer than la Quinta. Not at all impressed with this hotel and can’t wait to leave and stay at another hotel as we continue our travels back home.

Seemed like an older La Quinta with a makeover.
It was quite comfortable and clean.
The breakfast selection was sparse but adequate.
It’s close to I-​95, takes dogs and is cheap so I won’t complain.

The hotel was clean the location was perfect. I would stay here again.
A few issues there was a la quinta employee sitting unkempt in the front lobby laying in a chair by the front desk. She may have been in housekeeping and she may not. Appearance is everything to a business and she should not be watching tv in the lobby laying in a chair and not sitting. Second I had a fridge in my room that prevented me from opening the door more that 55%.
It’s a poor design and needs to be fixed. How something so basic can escape the is astounding. They know this is an issue they overlook it as s small thing when it’s clearly not. Anyone with a suitcase will deal with this so fix it now.

Nice clean hotel. Cassidy greeted us when we came in with a warm smile. We were in search of a pet friendly hotel but they are hard to find. I was traveling with my parents and I wanted a room close to them. She was very accommodating with my request for a pet free room if possible. The rooms are very clean and quiet. There is a Cracker Barrel right next door. They have a small breakfast bar with a make your own waffles from 6−9am that was pretty good. Great place to stay!
PROS: pet friendly, clean and quiet
CONS: n/​a

As a business traveler I stay here regularly. Overall the hotel is acceptable, and fullfills the need of a place to stay overnight. It is located right off the interstate, so easy to find. The building and interior are a little old, outdated; it could use a remodel. The rooms are large, with fresh linens and towels. But again they need to be updated for appearance. They allow dogs here, so expect some noises sometimes. The breakfast is average to poor, as they always seem to miss something (no yogurt today, no bananas tomorrow). The service is acceptable too, but Pam is the best, she is really friendly and takes care of her customers.

I booked the hotel on hotwire and was pretty sure it was going to be a winner since it already had a 85% approval rating from other hotwire customers. I was not wrong. The price was good and the room was larger than I expected. I am working and really appreciated the desk and comfortable chairs.
I was a little gun shy when I checked in and the front desk clerk asked if I had a pet. I said «no» and can you please put me in a non-​pet room and the front desk lady said «sure, that will not be a problem». Thank goodness.
The breakfast is pretty good. No eggs or meat but pretty much everything else. Waffles, bagels, muffins, fruit, cereal, oatmeal, coffee, juice and a USA Today. If you are really hungry the cracker barrel is next door.
Right next to I95 and convenient to several restaurants. It is not a vacation resort hotel but a comfortable, inexpensive place to stay the night.

Well, at least it was cheap? I booked this hotel because it’s dog friendly and, according to the booking site, only 15 minutes from Jekyll Island. Yeah, not so much. It was more like a 30 minute drive to get to the part of the island where everything is.
The room had a decent amount of space and a fridge. It smelled bad though, even out in the hallway. It smelled like a mix of pee and cigarettes. Also the water smelled and tasted gross (not sure if that’s typical of tap water in this area).
The staff was friendly and all in all, it was a good deal, but I wouldn’t book here again because it really isn’t convenient to the Island.

Your basic La Quinta room. plain but clean. friendly staff.

Can you say, «smells like dog»? That’s what my room smells like. And yeah, I’ve seen a bunch of people here with their dogs. Wonder what yummy things are growing in the carpet.
Will never stay here again. Had to make a last minute stop on our way to Florida for Spring break. Most places I called on our way down were booked where we wanted to stay. No wonder this place had a vacancy.
EWWW!

Pros — convenient to the interstate, comfortable beds, friendly people at the desk, free breakfast– basic but ok
Cons — Could hear the people walking around in the room above us. While our room looked fine (clean sheets, table tops, carpet, etc) when we checked in, it didn’t look so nice the next morning. When we pulled out the shower curtain, we saw there was black mold on it. There was pink mold in the corners of the bathroom. They ran out of coffee in the lobby (all kinds) in the morning so we went back to the room to make some and found the coffee pot was not clean. When we complained at checkout we got an apology but it was clear that was all we would get.
Sure it’s less expesive than some of the other hotels, but the $ 59 room is more like $ 70 after taxes and that’s too much for what was provided.
Side note — if you’re looking for any kind of spot to get a drink and relax, you should go somewhere other than Brunswick GA. We drove all over town at 9:30 and found just 2 spots — a gentlemen’s club downtown and Mulligan’s (right off the interstate) which had country karaōke going on.

To be honest, I really give this motel a 2.5 star rating.
The best parts: Very dog friendly (no extra charge for pets), large grassy areas for dog walking, close to I95, accommodating staff.
The rooms were not up to my standards of cleanliness.
