Perfect for our use / weekend in town
Great location for our use for a weekend to visit friends. Hotel felt safe, plenty of parking since we drove into town. Our room was clean and the bed comfortable. For the price point, perfect hotel. If you need nicer, you need to spend more. The hotel is dated but not really worn out. Would stay again when in town again.

This property was not a good value. It is a very old property with almost no amenities for a luxury hotel price. More like a $59 motel 6 than a $300 room. Room wasnt vacuumed and there were stains on the rug around the bed. Shower drain clogged. Remote didn’t work. Dresser broken and drawer kept sliding out. It is in a good location and was quiet but that’s all it had going for it.

Limited parking or valet for $65 per night and check-in time was wrong online. I was told it’s 4pm when I tried to check in so I had to wait over an hour to check in.

The elevator on this property is old and it gives the sensation that it can get stuck at any moment (it kind of did for a couple of seconds). It’s scary. Other than that, everything else was pretty normal/average. We stay there for 2 nights with 3 kids. I liked the breakfast and the ice machine. My oldest son liked the sofa bed. The TV did not really work but we were there mostly to rest at night, not to watch TV. There are nice restaurants within walking distance. Easy check in and out. The rooms seemed clean, but my son saw/found cooking underneath the bed. Overall and for the price, a good experience. I would stay here again.

Underwhelming
Underwhelmed with the property, staff responsiveness, amenities, condition and overall disrepair of the hotel. This is my third stay at a Comfort Inn. All of them were barely satisfactory. If this is the best that Choice Hotels has to offer, in the future I'll stay anywhere but Choice. And for those of you who read the Google reviews about this hotel, make sure you balance that with the Yelp ones.

There was only one functioning elevator. I was trapped two times in the elevator because the elevator door wouldn’t open. Another time the whole elevator shook violently before opening. The stairs could not be used because the stairwell doors were locked. I had used the alarm button and phone in the elevator but got no response. The front desk told me that it had been fixed. Not reality!!!
