The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was a standard hotel room. The housekeeping staff does a great job making sure the room is clean. The overall property could use a refresh.
We were greeted as soon as we arrive, staff (Larry) was very friendly and help. Our room was clean and comfortable. The cookie at check in was excellent as well!
Clean with friendly staff. Good breakfast. Felt safe as I was traveling alone. Mattress not real comfortable however would not keep me from staying here again.
Comfort Inn staff was amazingly accommodating when our TV wasn’t working. They immediately moved us to a different room to remediate the problem. Rooms were recently renovated and spotless.Our host in the morning was also incredibly welcoming. We would definitely stay at Comfort Inn again.

Room is clean and staff is great. A few things are starting to get run down and could use some updating. But overall would recommend as comfortable, convenient place to stay
The staff were all wonderful. I interacted with three different front desk employees and all three were kind, polite and helpful. The staff putting on the breakfast were great and the food was good. Our room had stained carpet and smelled like an old smokers room that was attempted to be cleaned with chemicals but now it smells like smoke and cover up.
The staff was amazing. I was caring for my sister after surgery. They gave me a room on the bottom floor and helped find me a second night stand to make things easier for us. Very nice and accommodating. Will be stayed again shortly!
I couldn't ask for a better place to start other then the village inn it was under construction so I can't wait to see the up dates also the breakfast there is amazing and the prices are just about as good as the breakfast.
The hotel is clean and pet friendly. There is a $150 hold which I wasn't aware of, so I called the front desk from my room to ask about the charge on my credit card. The person said that I needed to come to the front desk. She was very condescending while explaining the charge.
