text: I do not usually Yelp when I am frustratedbut I am quite peeved at the moment Let me state right off that I have stayed at La Quinta Inns ALL OVER the United States At least stays per year for the last years ANd I LOVE themmostly bc they have the best pet policies out there ie no gigantic pet deposit for ppl whose pets are cleaner than most childrennnSoback to my review La Quinta at Phoenix North has severely disappointed so far I arrived to check in at am tonight I had called earlier in the evening to tell them I was still about h away The room NONsmoking was booked days prior After hours of driving with dogs I finally get up to the room upstairs and to unload everything and take the dogs one by one did I mention UPSTAIRS it took me about trips And then what do I noticemy room has no effing privacy curtain You know how hotels have the sheer outer curtain and then a thick usually lightproof curtain underneath Well my room had no such thick curtain and I could literally see right through the window to the outside through the closed sheer curtain No big deal YES big deal If I could read a book through the curtain then the idea of some creeper staring at me while I am sleeping or working on my computer made me extremely uneasynnI called down to the deskthe guy of front was very nice and this was totally not his faulthe apologizedand offered to bring me keys for a new room Problem solved NOPE nnI pack everything back into the car in another trips upstairs down upetc and drive to another building where the new room is then start the whole unloading process again The minute I got out of the car there was an overwhelming stench of cigarette smoke And YES the new room is also upstairs When I get up to the roomguess what It ALSO stinks of cigarette smoke G R O S S nnDespite specifically booking a NONsmoking room I am honestly too tired to even complain And I have no desire to change rooms again But I am very displeased and hoping I do not get a migraine from inhaling residual cigarette smoke all night long Can that happen I guess I will find out
