I reviewed several hotels in Bay City before deciding on the La Quinta because it had an outdoor hot tub. When we arrived, the hot tub was ice cold. We were told they hadn't expected anyone to use it. However, I had called several days before to confirm they had a working hot tub and told them this is why I had chosen to book with their hotel. Apparently, no forwarded the message to management. After we had requested the hot tub be heated, the managment eagerly complied and we had a very nice long soak.
The room was clean and the bed wonderful. The bathroom was little tight and the door swung into the tub and toliet making it awkward for more than one person. The furniture all had a stickiness, probably from being rubbed with furniture soap and not being wiped down. This seems to be a consistent thread with hotels in the south.
The breakfast was great with Texas shaped waffles, eggs, sausages, etc... The onsite market had a great selection of snacks and sugar-free drinks.
Overall, it was a very good experience.
