La Quinta Inn Santa Fe

Prós: The price was decent for a weekend room. Very easy to find. Close to stores and several restaurants. Room was clean and comfortable. Bed was more comfortable than many other hotels I've stayed in. The breakfast waffles were tasty.

Contras: This hotel is a long way from most of the tourist areas. You will have added parking expense near the plaza if you do your own driving. While there are some restaurants close by, there aren't many bars within walking distance. The shower head needs a good scrubbing and cleaning because of mineral buildup. The coffee was instant, machine-made, and definitely a lowlight of the hotel. My wife liked the gravy with her biscuit, but the only protein available was a hard-boiled egg. There were several people there for sporting events and grumbled about no sausage, bacon, or scrambled eggs.
