La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Vancouver Airport - Richmond

Good hotel

The area lacked suitable restaurants, unless you wanted Asian food which was well catered for. Overall though we had a good stay.

The room was very clean and the staff was very friendly. Our stay in the room was very comfortable. The elevator is slow and seems a little unsafe. The door was closing, and so I stuck my arm in to get it to open. But it never did! The door just continued to slam shut. I pulled my arm out at the last possible second. If that was a child, they would be hurt badly or worse. The best part of the breakfast is the waffles. Parking was an issue on the last night. A bus showed up and parked in the parking lot taking up a lot of parking spaces. They could have asked the bus to park outside the gate in the street, but instead they were asking all the other guests to park in the street. WiFi worked great! We felt safe in the hotel as well. The stairwell near the elevator and the lobby smelled badly likely from the breakfast food. We were not a fan of the local food choices. The neighborhood ihas mostly all Asian restaurants, and so if you are not into sushi or poke bowls, you were left with McDonalds or Pizza Hut.

Our stay at the La Quinta Inn was mediocre. The air conditioning units on the second floor were extremely noisy, which made it very hard to sleep since our room was located right next to it. However, the manager offered to help us switch rooms. The air from the air conditioning units inside the room smelled like rotten eggs. We assumed it would go away after leaving it on for a while, but the smell lingered throughout the few days we were there. Despite the problems we had, the customer service was great.
