Our first clue that this was going to be a poor experience is that our room number was literally written on the wall outside our room with red sharpie. I'm not kidding. When we walked in to the building just prior to getting to our room, the stairs leading to the second floor were stripped down to glue on old wooden steps and there was a caution tape ripped and hanging from both posts. I could have gotten past that, but the sharpie room number clinched it. I do have to say, staff immediately offered us another room and while it didn't smell like smoke, it definitely still smelled old and stuffy. We had paid for a room with a king bed and the replacement was only a queen. But staff was friendly and like I said, they offered a new room right away. Overall, would not go back, though. Not worth the $120, sadly.

An absolute nightmare. First of all the hotel wasn’t even the same name it’s advertised on Expedia. The pictures were from a long time ago too because they don’t accurately represent it’s current state. This place looked like a crack house inside. After checking in (it was late and we had little choice at thos point) we needed to request a room change almost immediately because the first room was so dirty. The bed looked like they just folded sheets over, there was garbage on the floor, and there was fresh blood and other stains on the sheets. Checking into the second room wasn’t much better. Dead bugs, clogged toilet, rancid smoke smell, and no hot water. We couldn’t find accommodations nearby and ended up sleeping in our clothes on top of the sheets because we were so grossed out. It’s a crime they are in business making money by taking advantage of people, just shameful.

Nightmare hotel

When I booked this room, I went off the pictures and the average rating. However when we arrived it was late at night checked in about 10:30 and trash cans were over filled. Walkways were filthy. Carpeting in hallways and rooms were filthy it seemed as if there had been no vacuuming in over 6 months at least. Ice cream spilled in the hallways. Our room only had one towel, and when we asked for additional towels we were informed that we could not get any more towels until 9am. We ended up not unpacking anything and made other accommodations at a different hotel in the area. We paid about double the price but very much worth it. I would not stay at the Quinta Inn Marrillville again.

Room had water spot like this all in different areas of the hotel.

Carpeting in hallways and rooms all looked similiar

Horrible Place to Stay

My family has been coming to this hotel for years and we will not be back. There was no room service, gnats, and we barely had towels(thank goodness we bring our own). I had to ask for a mop to clean up the bathroom floor from the front desk(which they tried to give me a dirty one). We took out my family's trash just to keep it clean. I wouldn't recommend unless you need a pet friendly place for your animal(s).

I never write reviews & don't really read them but here is my exception. Water was rusty then no water then it was grey. Smoke alarm because of boiler problem. Shady people outside. Creepy hallways. Very uncomfortable- I checked out early & moved to a different hotel. It was worth the expense

Não é um La Quinta inn

Esse não é um La Quinta Inn. O hotel, aparentemente, faliu e estão tentando recuperá-lo, mas com outro nome. A limpeza é terrível, o odor é péssimo, a sensação de insegurança é alta, enfim, JAMAIS voltarei.

Nome La Quinta inn está coberto e há uma faixa com outro nome.

No hot water

Went there and was confused on why all the signs were blocked out and why the hotel didn’t look like the pictures. Had a reservation for two rooms and they weren’t by each other even though I asked for it. My room didn’t have a microwave or refrigerator. The fire alarm went off at 3 in the morning because of a problem with a boiler. Didn’t have hot water for hours even though they knew there was a issue with the boiler that night because it was told to them by the firefighters. I had to check out because it was 12pm and still no hot water in my room or water in the other rooms. Hotel didn’t offer any help with the issue. Just said they don’t know when it would be on. It seemed they didn’t care. The hotel was filthy and smelled like urine. I feel I was fooled by the pictures.

The lower of La Quinta. Merriville, IN

Room and hallways need a deep carpet cleaning. Smell of everything, animal pee, smoke, mold, etc. Room was unclean and have to buy items to make it more confortable. Aot of sewer flies inside, smelling of animal pee, and cob web at every angle of ceiling and corners. Bathroom was half clean due to not been wiped and foolr need a deep cleaning at corners. Airconditioning need to be keep on high as 63 to get smell lower to enough sleep. Will not recommend this location to anyone unless those conditions are fixed.

Horrible Experience!.

El lugar apestaba a humedad, cigarrillo y marihuana al punto de que no se podía casi respirar, la alfombra estaba mojada por todos los pasillos, había caca de perro 🐕 en la entrada C. La habitación tenía la puerta abierta porque se había inundado y estaban esperando que se secara el baño estaba sucio y tube que salir a comprar productos para limpiar. “El desayuno” muy baja calidad, mal sabor y el área estaba apestoso y sucio, las mesas tenían manchas residuos de que algo se derramó y no lo limpiaron. Cuando volví en la noche todavía estaban sucias las mesas. No lo recomiendo y jamás volveremos a este lugar!.

Upon arriving at 530pm, the parking lot was mostly empty, felt a bit unsafe and needs work. An employee hanging outside, looked suspicious. The whole place needs some serious renovation both outside and inside. You can tell it's very old. The hallway smelled moldy and of weed and looked dirty and dingy. The room was decent but also needs work. I had some stains and stray hairs on the bedsheet. I wouldn't have stayed there for more than one night but since it was only one night, I beared it. I do not recommend and definitely would not stay there again. Should have just pay a little more for a different place.
