For one night, it was convenient and clean overall. The facility is a little worn. But the bed was comfortable and had adequate blanket weight! (Can’t stand nice hotel chains with horrible beds with sheet-weight blankets!)

Very helpful front desk staff. Nice selection for b’fast (more than typical for this level of hotel). Room was a bit small but bed was great. Lobby was sparse. If you’re looking to hang out for hours at the hotel, you’ll likely feel cramped. But if you’re looking for a safe, clean, comfortable place to lay your head for the night (with a quick b’fast), this is a good option.

My first impression walking through the doors is that there was quite an odor. It has a very... vintage scent. The employees at the front desk were apparently in a disagreement when we arrived. The woman seemed crabby and the man kept rolling his eyes at her. The rooms are small and dark, but the curtains can be opened for more light. The bathroom was clean. The backs of my legs are itchy this morning which is scaring me because I am now finding reviews of BED BUGS being found on the property. The room was clean but all commons areas are not. Don't head into breakfast hoping to get your morning serving of protein. The coffee is not good. The breakfast area was quite messy which gave me the "ick" so I skipped breakfast. If you are elderly or disabled, please note that there is not an elevator, you have to take stairs. We will not be staying here again. It would've been worth the extra $100 to stay elsewhere.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry that you did not have a pleasant experience with us. As far as you trying to spread a bed bug rumor around, please note that we have not had a review like that in quite some time, we regularly have our rooms inspected without issue, and even have brand new beds as of December of 2023. We do not have an elevator, but always place each guest that we receive a first floor request on the bottom floor. We also would put our 26 item continental breakfast up against any other hotel in our price range.

This is an old Comfort Inn that has been updated but while it was clean, it's still a basic, no frills hotel but adequate for the price. There is no desk nor a relaxing chair or sofa, just chairs at the small dining room table. The refrigerator was noisy & did not keep things v cold. The freezer section really didn't work at all. My biggest complaint was after telling the manager I am v sensitive to noise & needed the quietest room available, I was given a room near a guest who left his dog alone in the room on a regular basis & the dog would bark loudly whenever it was left alone. Unfortunately, this was often during the day, every day, when I was trying to rest but I also heard it in the evening. The weekend staff acknowledged this guest did this regularly (one was polite about it, another was not sympathetic at all) but apparently chose to do nothing about it (like asking the guest to comply with the rule that pets can't be left alone or be asked to leave!). The manager who had been quite helpful when I checked in was not available on the weekend. The hotel is near a lot of fast food places but not much else food-wise. Breakfast was minimal: dry cereal, waffles, cheap pastries/muffins, some unappetizing biscuits & gravy. The location was convenient for what I was there for & I don't spend much time in hotel rooms so it was OK but just barely. If I return, I'll choose something better. If you want more comfort, look elsewhere; if no frills will do, it's OK.

National Parks Road Trip
needed a half way place for our road trip to the western US National Parks. have to say I was pleasantly impressed. sometimes you're just not sure price wise. check in guy was friendly and helpful. room was clean, maybe dated but people treat hotel rooms like a garage I swear. bed was a bit hard but it actually was surprisingly good for me. breakfast is waffles and various breakfast stuff. yes, I would stay here again, I needed an inexpensive hotel that takes dogs. BTW the Meadowlark Dog Park is about 10-15 minutes away and was fun.

This was the smallest hotel room I've ever seen. The bed took up the whole room. Not even room for a night stand on each side of the bed. The recliner was stained. The finish on the TV stand was tacky - I'm guessing from using cleaning chemicals on it. Bed was ok but the pillows were terrible. The room smelled ok but the hallway was rank. Big spider web in our window. We've stayed here before but its definitely changed since the last time. No plans to stay here again.

The staff was polite and gave me an easy check-in. What I didn't like was that even though there were "No-Smoking" signs posted there were butts in the hallways and the facility smelled of smoke. The smell was obviously present in the carpets, drapes and bed linens. If I hadn't already paid for the room, I would have driven down the street to find other accommodations.
