Through this partnership, U-Haul customers can receive a discount at any of the more than 750 La Quinta hotels nationwide both during their move and after. Information on how to book the La Quinta discount will be provided to U-Haul customers at the time of rental. Whether it’s for business or for leisure travel, La Quinta provides some of the most affordable and competitive rates found anywhere. The dedicated staff at each La Quinta hotel is committed to providing consistently clean and comfortable guest rooms which include many of the frills found at higher priced hotels, such as free high speed Internet, free Bright Side Breakfast((TM)) and refreshing swimming pools. In addition, La Quinta is pet-friendly and does not charge extra or require a deposit for the family pet.
“La Quinta is bigger and brighter than ever before and is the perfect fit for the U-Haul customer in transit traveling with their family and pet,” said Wayne Goldberg, La Quinta’s President and CEO. “We are happy to extend this additional savings to U-Haul customers and look forward to having them experience what it is like to wake up on the bright side® at La Quinta.”
