Florida Panhandle hotel guide. La Quinta Inn & Suites hotel in Florida Panhandle, Florida

"I rarely leave reviews, but this stay was so bad I feel obligated to warn others. We stayed here in Panama City Beach last year and thought it was a little dirty, but this time it was on a completely different level. The property itself was filthy—trash scattered all over the grounds like no one even attempts to clean it. But the real issue started when we checked into our room. The door didn’t lock. Not “hard to lock”—it literally did not require a key to open. Anyone could just pull the handle and walk right in. To make matters worse, you actually needed a key just to close it from the outside. We left for a few hours to enjoy the area, and when we came back, our room had been “serviced,” but the maid didn’t even secure the door. Our room was left wide open for about six hours for anyone to walk into. That’s not just careless—it’s completely unacceptable and a serious safety issue. When we brought this up to the front desk, they acted annoyed, like we were inconveniencing them by pointing out that our room was basically unsecured the entire day. And the cleanliness? Disgusting. There was old coffee still sitting in the pot from previous guests, growing mold. The sheets were stained with who-knows-what. It honestly made us question if anything in the room had been properly cleaned at all. Between the lack of security, terrible cleanliness, and dismissive staff, this was one of the worst stays we’ve ever had. We will absolutely not be returning."

"The property pics were really nice online. When we checked in the lobby was really nice and clean and the staff there was pleasant. However, when we went to check into our room, it was a totally different story. The building where our room was appeared old, worn, and barely kept. The room itself looked exactly like it did online but probably due to the angle of the pics, you wouldn't have known that the room was really small. The b"
