"We stayed at La Quinta Inn & Suites Ocala from March 5–8, 2026 for the FLAGs North swim meet and were extremely disappointed. We chose this hotel for the location and price, but the conditions were far below acceptable. When we arrived, three police cars were outside. The lobby looked nice, but the elevator was run down, smelly, and dirty. The fifth floor smelled musky and hot, with filthy baseboards and grimy window sills. Our room (516) had tissue stuffed in the peephole, light leaking around the door, and a strong animal-like odor. The bathroom was dirty, with peeling paint, a leaking sink, and grime in the tub. We were given only two towels for a family of four, and the dresser drawers were sticky with items left from a previous guest. Several outlets were broken. Housekeeping never came once during our three-night stay—no fresh towels, no bedding changes, nothing. The pool area was also in poor condition, with bugs, dirt, and leaves in the pool and jacuzzi. The sidewalks were cracked, the jacuzzi wasn’t hot, and our kids came out dirtier than when they went in. The carpet in our room was so dirty that our kids’ legs turned black from playing on the floor. Breakfast was edible, but I found hair in the gravy, which raised more concerns about cleanliness. We understand this is a budget hotel, but the lack of cleanliness, maintenance, and basic service made this stay unacceptable. We will not return and cannot recommend this property."
