We stayed one night at this hotel and after checking out my friend noticed a charge to his credit card for $40.00. He called the franchisel owner/manger about the charge and she said it was due to a curtain rod being broken. I was the last person to leave the room and there was no damage when we left. I explained to her that there was no damage and asked her to remove the charge and she refused and she hung up the phone! I called her back and she said "you're not going to get the answer you want" and hung up the phone again! We are in the process of filing a small claims suit against her. I also made a formal complaint to La Quinta Corp. but they were no help at all! I will never stay at a La Quinta Inn again!
