Enjoyable

Employee at check in was ok. All other staff was excellent throughout our stay. Room appeared to be clean, with the exceptions of candy wrappers on floor and hand print all over the headboard. Looked like whomever stayed there before had a really good time. I keep some Lysol wipes so I didn’t bother calling housekeeping. Carpet looked fresh and clean. There was no soap in the bathroom whatsoever ever. The room didn’t have any bad smells. the tub was really slick with no traction. Shower curtain was clean. The air condition was not loud at all. The toilet paper holder was in a really weird place. water pressure was great. The bed was extremely comfortable. I believe that this hotel is in need of a small upgrade. Sheets and curtains were stained. Lamps, Lights and sink fixtures were corroded. Walls were chipped and had stains on them. Some things need to be replaced. We went down for breakfast, (8:30ish) housekeeping had marked us as checked out. So someone walked in on us after we returned. Housekeeping was LOUD in the morning, I felt it was very inconsiderate and would have been very mad if I wasn’t already awake. There was a loud commotion late in the night, I called the front desk. Seemed to handle the situation. If these things are fixed this will be a very nice hotel, but if not it’s going to go downhill quickly I fear. Breakfast was very enjoyable. The food was fresh and the attendant was very nice, helpful and kept everything very clean.

The staff was pleasant. Our room was dirty, there was a used wash cloth hanging in the bathroom and an obviously stained bed spread. There was a lot of hallway noise. The shower had very weak pressure. Breakfast had little to choose from amd the waffle batter made hollow, crispy waffles. We thought that we could count on the Comfort Inn hotel line as clean with a descent breakfast offering. This was by far the worst Comfort Inn that we've ever stayed in. It was not worth the nightly rate.
