A definite leg up on other hotel ads.

Today when so many commercials completely lack wit, intelligence and, often, even clarity, La Quinta is very refreshing.
This one is particularly amusing since they took an age-old cliche and made in work beautifully in this spot. I always appreciate a commercial when I can't predict what's coming, and this ending came as a complete surprise.  What I especially like about this spot is that, unlike so many others today, this is not mean spirited and reliant on someone cheating a friend to get what he wants. This is funny at a time when not many commercials truly are.
