The work out room equipment needs to be fixed or replaced - the tread mill did not work , the stationary bike handle bars broken and the recumbent was broken as well , the only that worked was the universal gym weights It is very cold there so the use of the exercise equipment is an essential to the hotel amenities

Breakfast is very good. Room was spacious and clean. Gym in the ground floor is bad, elliptical did not, treadmill did not work. I have stayed in this property three times and the treadmill never worked. I reported it in all the instances and I think it was never fixed

Convenient location, great front desk service, very clean, nicely appointed, and wonderful continental breakfast. My only disappointment was that the weight machine in the exercise room was unusable, as the cables were all twisted up & I couldn't make it work.

The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the hot tub. When we checked in there was a cleaning rag in our room on the counter (no biggie) then we found a piece of smashed candy and a large toenail clipping on the edge of the couch cushion. Disgusting! There were particles on the desk and bathroom counter. The sink was not cleaned. The shower has great water pressure but standing in the shower is uncomfortable and a little dangerous because the bottom of the tub has warped so there is a small valley down the center and you can't put your foot down flat. The tub was also incredibly slippery.

When we checked into our room we discovered a used bar of soap in the shower and a thawed bloody steak in the freezer. The person at the front desk took care of it, but then at 3:30 AM we were wakened by loud music, called the front desk to complain. The music stopped for 30 minutes then started again. We called the front desk again and the music stoppped for the rest of the night. In the morning the hallways andelevator smelled like pot. I tried to contact the manager and didnotget any response. Terrible experience.

DO NOT BOOK this hotel's accessible room. Their shower is NOT accessible at all for people in a wheelchair: no grab bar near the bench making it unsafe to transfer from wheelchair to bench, showerhead is too high and cannot be lowered without assistance, the shower control is too far from the bench once you are seated, the handheld showerhead tube is too short to reach the bench once it's lower. Even if you could stand up in the shower, the showerhead is too short and you would need to squeeze tightly in the corner in order to have enough water to take a shower. The sink in the bathroom is also too high for a person in a wheelchair as well as the desk in the room. In addition, the iron board is hanged too high with the iron on top of it making it unreachable for someone who is short or someone in a wheelchair traveling alone. Their accessible rooms are also all the way down the hallway toward the end of the building making it a long walk for those who have mobility issues. If you have a disability, better look for a different hotel.

The elevators are old and make sketchy noises going up or down The breakfast eggs were dry on the outside and like…gross in the inside Their carpet looked like it wasn’t vacuumed, rather swept with a broom And I had an issue staying with my service animal and being bombarded about a pet fee.. eventually the pet fee was removed by who ever the manager is- she was helpful, but the rest of the staff- like check, made me feel uncomfortable and very anxious staying there by the way he and his trainer attacked me about a pet fee

The hotel guest service representative in the morning was very rude in the morning when we had let them know we had overslept and that we were looking to extend our stay they proceeded to treat us with zero hospitality and threatened that we would be notified to vacate upon non-payment within 20 minutes. We proceeded to pack our things and leave as we were both very upset with the way it was handled and I will not be staying at Comfort Inn again

Ice, soda & snacks available for purchase. Quiet. Hot breakfast with waffles, sausage & eggs. Cereal, pastries, bread items several juices were available. Only complaint was the eggs were dried out pretty bad by 715 when we got down for breakfast. Everything else was awesome! We had two rooms for $82+tax each a night & it was WELL WORTH IT! We also ate at Sgt Peppers Grill & Bar for dinner and it was awesome!! Restaurant was right in the same parking lot! *****
