La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Salem OR

8/10 Good

"Upon checking into my room there was still stuff left over from the last person, which I promptly turned into the front desk. The breakfast leaves a lot of taste to the imagination. The orange juice is the right color but very flat in taste, the sausage wasn’t cooked all the way. The eggs were ok with a little ketchup and s&p, coffee was burnt. Yogurt was very lack luster in flavor. But staff was friendly and pleasant. Nice that there is no carpet in the rooms, rooms are nicely updated."
