Hotwire Hotel: 2.5* Memphis (East) La Quinta

[BFH]

I got a rate of $46 for 6/17-6/21 in Memphis East.

The 2.5* lists the following: Complimentary breakfast, Pool, Fitness center and high-speed internet.

There are no Amerisuites in Memphis. I do not believe there is a Holiday Inn Express either in that particular zone.

I thought maybe Residence Inn, but there is no "suite" icon. Maybe Hampton Inn, but wouldn't that be a 2*? EXT Stays do not offer comp breakfast, I don't think.

Any ideas? Thanks.

any LaQuinta's in the area because those three icons match many a LQ.

Yes! There is a La Quinta Inn & Suites in that zone.

The amenities seem to match. But wouldn't La Quintas be more like a 2*? I guess I'm more used to PL's star-rating system. Thanks!!

I answered my own quesiton. I just searched the site and realized La Quinta Inn & Suites do indeed come up as 2.5*, while the regular La Quinta's are usually 2*.

I think that could be the property... I struck out bidding up to $45 for a 3* on PL last night, but I'm going to give serious thought to taking this offer.

most La Quinta's in Florida on hotwire come in as 2.5*'s regardless of if it's a Inn or Inn and Suites. All the Jacksonville ones are 2.5* and in Tallahassee also. Only one of the six is an Inn and Suites. Things might change with the recent conversion of about 100 (former) Baymont Inns to La Quinta. Try not to get in any more trouble over on that other site.

Please follow-up this thread with whatever you decide to do.

I decided to do Hotwire + a direct booking because La Quinta didn't have double beds for the Saturday night portion of my stay which made their deal disappear from Hotwire for those dates.

6/18-21 - La Quinta Inn & Suites Primacy Parkway ($52 on Hotwire).

I assumed it was the La Quinta, but after confirmation I then went and booked a king room for 6-17 directly through LQ.

I just wish I would have taken the Hotwire offer before Saturday ran out...... There aren't any "hot deals" on PL for those dates (my definition of hot deal being $50 or less) and I'd rather take the LQ with the free breakfast rather than going up a few bucks and probably getting the Holiday Inn Select (which was $60 on Hotwire).
