Comfort Suites

We had to come back to my hometown for my aunt’s funeral. My parent’s booked two rooms for Friday night. They weren’t adjoining rooms, but were located next to each other on the second floor. The hotel has 3 floors in total. I’ve stayed at this hotel before, about 5 years ago, I had no issues then. My parents checked in before I arrived, so I don’t have any experience with that.
The room consisted of a king sized bed, a queen sized sleeper sofa, desk, microwave, tv, refrigerator, single sink bathroom and shower. The king bed was comfortable, it came with 2 soft pillows and 2 firm pillows. I liked how they had a bunch off different outlets that were easy to plug things into. Also, they had USB outputs for your mobile devices. The fridge is rather large for a hotel. It comes with two complimentary bottles of water. They also have a coffee maker with different coffee available, and a bag of popcorn to use in the microwave. They also have free wireless internet, which is pretty fast for hotel internet, 10.52 Mbps download and 7.69 Mbps upload. I think it was free, it might’ve been because my mom is apart of the Comfort Suites reward program.
The bathroom features a toilet with a rather hard flush. When I first flushed it, it startled me. The mirror is placed a little low on the wall. I am 6.2 and had to duck down to see from my mouth and above. The shower was kind of hard to get from the tub return to the shower. I pulled up on the switch a few times, I pulled as hard as I could and it still had some water coming out of the bottom.
I spent about an hour ironing a shirt and pants. The iron in the room was pretty sad. It wouldn’t heat up that much at all. My mom actually had to borrow the iron in my room because theirs wasn’t heating up at all. If I was staying here again, I’d probably bring my own iron. I did like that the heating and air had a setting on the system where you could have the fan run constantly. That is nice because I usually sleep with a fan and find it hard to sleep without the sound of a fan.
I was able to try the free breakfast they have in the morning. When we were staying there, I don’t think many other people were staying there from the looks of the parking lot and that we looked to be the first people eating from the breakfast at 8:15am. They’ve got cereal, milk, different types of pasties, bagels, muffins, fruit, eggs, sausage, and even a machine to make your own waffles. I had some of the eggs, okay, I liked the link sausage. They had a cheese danish was I liked. They had 2% milk, along with skim milk. Orange juice, different fruit juice and coffee.
After taxes and fees, it ended up being $ 105 for a room. I think that is a little pricey for a hotel that is about ten years old. The room wasn’t too dated, but it didn’t look like a $ 105 a night room. I would say $ 65-​$ 90 would be a better price. The carpet in the hallways was stained and I think that some of the items in the room could use an update. The checkout staff were very friendly though.

The very best in quality from the front desk to the housekeeping this place shines above the rest. The indoor pool is beautiful and very peaceful. The hotel is easily accessible to area attractions and the staff are knowledgable and friendly. Come as a guest and leave as family.

I’ve stayed here about 4 times and the staff is always friendly. The last time, they were trying to be formal like they were working at the Ritz Carlton… it was sad and kind of funny to see them be so off target in terms of demographic. The manager was having an argument with a guest which was even more entertaining. The rooms really need painting and I’ve had a few mattresses well past their prime. The rooms are huge which is a big plus.

An earlier version of the Comfort Suites concept that is well kept and is not showing it’s age. The only real tells that this is an older version of the hotel concept are the heating/​cooling unit and tube TV. The staff is very attentive, rooms extremely clean, and the WiFi is above average for hotel connectivity.
