The property was extremely dated and run down. When we walked in the room I immediately noticed that it looked nothing like the picture online - including the fact that there was old, stained and not well vacuumed carpet instead of the wood flooring in the picture. Everything was extremely dated and in need of replacing. Unfortunately everything in town was booked, otherwise we never would have stayed!

Our stay at Comfort Inn was....fine. AC is very noisy, multiple 'damp rid' containers around the room, which felt humid, even with AC on high. For a cheap hotel it was fine. Watch out for the 'safe charge' which they will add to your bill even if you don't use the safe - you need to request that it be taken off when checking out.

You can tell when a hotel is well-managed. This one is better than most in many ways. Cookies, popcorn, tailgates. I would definitely want to stay there again.

We had a great stay at this location. Each morning there was a hot breakfast served aplenty. Front desk and food staff were great- always smiling with a greeting. Pool was a great size for a quick dip. It was super nice to come down each morning to Natalie’s smiling face. She was quick to make small talk and ensure our family was having a great stay- always willing to help in any way she could. That Natalie is a gem- keep a good hold on her because she’s a great asset to your company. Getting to come back to the hotel each evening to cookies and popcorn was always super exciting for the kids.

We only stayed one night and we don't plan on returning unless it is updated and the reviews improve. We knew to have low expectations from the reviews. Convenient location near all the stores. Our room felt clean overall, but we didn't thoroughly inspect it either. Mattress was uncomfortable; it felt old and cheap. We didn't have time for breakfast so can't speak about it. Building overall felt outdated and not well kept. Staff at check-in and check-out was courteous. On our way to check out, another guest told us he had 2 roaches in his room and he was on his way to the receptionist to address the matter. We couldn't help overhearing the conversation with the lady at the front desk who was courteous and professional.
