La Quinta Inn & Suites hotels in Coronado

"We booked the room for Veterans Day half marathon run. We were told up front there was a planned power outage on the entire block 10 pm-5 am the night before the run. This was out of the motel's control. We figured we'd just be sleeping then so kept the reservation. We appreciated the candidness. Property is a 1940s 2-story type motel. Rooms are clean, have cable tv and updated fixtures in good repair. Coffee and cookies in office. There is a restaurant which we did not visit (went out with relatives) but was full Sunday when we left. A few parking places in the courtyard, made smaller by green construction fences, more spaces in back alley and along street. Linda was most accommodating. All rooms had battery lamps, flashlights, and extra blankets/comforters for the blackout. She gave us a complimentary extra hour to check out due to the run . We were a couple blocks from local businesses, and maybe a mile from the Del Coronado and start of Silver Strand. Expensive for a motel (well it's a beach town in SoCal) but nicer than others in the vicinity--brother 2 blocks away had a smaller room same price--and $100s less than next tier. "

"Everything was fantastic, the only issue we had was there was no hotel parking so we had to battle Coronado traffic to find a spot. "
