Front desk staff was excellent definitely looked out for us
Definitely will be staying at Comfort Inn again
Our room was supposed to be non smoking but smelled heavily of smoke. That is my main complaint. It was close enough to the National Park. Breakfast was fine.

The staff was friendly but it kind of smelled like smoke from cigarettes in the hotel
Staff was friendly. The room was not as clean as one would expect. The highlight was breakfast. Great variety including eggs,bacon, cereals,waffles and more. Price was reasonable.

Room was decent. Hallways under renovation.
Might try again.
Broken equipment scattered throughout the hotel, peeling paint, entire lobby reeks of pot, food and trash all over the hallways and stairwells, got no sleep both nights because of extremely loud guests going up and down the hallway that the staff finally did something about at 3 am on the second night. Absolutely worst hotel stay I’ve ever had anywhere. I’m pissed off that I actually paid them to stay in this garbage place for two nights.
The front desk staff was super friendly, helpful, and understanding. However the hotel is almost uninhabitable. Many of the rooms the doors were broken. I tried three different t rooms. Once o got one the a/c unit was broken. They must be short staff cause rooms were not even clean. Because I prepaid I had to see it through which makes me second guess prepaying moving forward. I would have definitely went to a different hotel.
No towels in the room. Was told by front desk they had no towels left in the hotel. Had to wait until next morning to get towels. Room itself was poorly laid out. The AC unit was filthy, and we found chicken bones when attempting to use the pull out couch. The property itself looked quite dated. And everything felt dirty when you touched it. I was actually amazed that the breakfast included was somewhat decent, after our room experience.
