We stayed at the Salem, NH, La Quinta for three nights in mid-May. The front desk staff was friendly and competent. The free breakfast was adequate with a selection of cereals, fruit, yogurt, oatmeal, juices and make-your-own waffles. Our room was clean with a very comfortable king bed and a new leather recliner. There was also an excellent flat screen TV. I noticed one recent review that said the hallway carpets looked like they hadn't ever been cleaned. I believe that to be completely untrue. We were there at the same time and the carpets in the rooms and halls were so clean that I thought they must have been new. Another bad review mentioned an unclean bathroom. Ours was spotless and shining. The housekeeping crew is very sweet and pleasant, but may need a bit more instruction on some of the details, but we had no problem. The roads nearby are somewhat torn up due to current repairs, but easily drivable. When the construction is over shortly, they should be quite good. Also, lots of restaurants and all kinds of shopping are within a 5-8 minute drive. The La Quinta is just off I-93, so is a very convenient location for the traveler. I noticed the couple of recent bad reviews recommended going across the street to the much more expensive hotel. Hmmmmm?

Usual good quality that you would expect from a La Quinta Inn. This hotel does need a shuttle service as it is somewhat out of the way. The roads in and out from the facility are very bad-watch it. Breakfast and facilities very good. Beds very comfortable.

LIfted up the seat to see the bowl covered i nsemi-dry urine. Very nice. Also no soap or shampoo. I went down to get more, and some scary loud guy asks "What do you need bro?" I thought he was some thug from the steeet. He throws me a bunch of stuff I don' tneed and yells at me to take up handfuls of soap and shampoo "just in case". There won't be a just in case - as I'll never set foot in here again. Utterly disgusting.

You get what you pay for. Room was adequate. Having wads of wet toilet paper thrown at my car and every other person's car was an unexpected perk for everyone. To be fair, that was more the Clientele that night and less the hotel, but not one hotel employee rushed out to stop it until about 1130pm when Salem Police had to intervene. But this still did not stop the public drunkenness of said clientele. But again, you get what you pay for. Don't be cheap, just go to the holiday inn across the street to avoid this happening to you. I hate to say bad things but the rates here seem to attract this type of activity. I needed a quiet nights sleep when work forces me to stay in town and I get this... I won't be going again.
