It's a decent budget hotel in a nice neighborhood and close to the freeway. Nothing great and nothing real bad. Bed was hard and not enough light in the room. Would stay there again.

Dear Ms. Beverley,We thank you for your valuable feedback.It is not true entirely. I spoke to you and explained you the situation as it is a personal preference.You also demanded a much bigger TV to be replaced in your room which we did not have on our hand and is something we don't do normally.Thank you

Dear GreggAs and when it starts getting warmer, there might be some bugs and darkling beetles surface out. But we value your comments and I have let the head housekeeper know.

I made a mistake with my booking. I booked wed Feb 28 instead of tuesday the 27th. Expedia virtual agent was fine with cancelling and rebooking but needed confirmation from the hotel. A young man got the call (with me at the desk) and he recited his hotel policy about cancelling and that he could not cancel! Not good customer relations!!! The hotel had many open rooms for both nights but the young man was too ignorant to make the decision. I and all I know will NEVER stay at Comfort inns ever again!!!

Dear Robert,I request that you please again talk to Expedia. YOu choose to use them on a resv. that had sever penalties that was disclosed to you by Expedia agents, I am sure. Once your resv. was booked, your cc would be charged immediately and you cannot ammend this resv. WE did not charge you anything, Expedia did. So you need to talk to them if you or they made any mistakes in making your reservation. We were not even a party to your communication with Expedia or their agentsThis is WHY we urge our guests to use BRAND.com to make reservations instead of any third party(s).Thank you

Dear Cheryl,This is why we suggest and recommend to go through BRAND.com to make any reservations, But YOU choose Expedia instead. YOu made this reservation through Expedia and as you said, it took you to find an EXPEDIA agent 2 hours and still was not successful. We dont know any of that. This resv. had 24 hour cancelation policy and we held the room for you as you requested. WE unfortunately cannot refund in this case.Sincerely,Sam

Save ur $$, go somewhere else
Honestly, for what i paid... it was pathetic!! The room was old and outdated, the toilet seat was gross, and the hallway smelled like pot. The breakfast was a joke! Very few options, half the things appeared to be out of order. We were also double charged which was fixed at check in, but the desk clerk refused to talk to me, only directing reponses to my husband which i felt was rude. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else to stay!

I chose this property because it was very close to where I needed to be. The check was quite long compared to most I have experienced. I had no idea why it took so long. There was no one else at the desk. The person just moved slowly. The room was quite dated and not super clean. The grout in the bathroom was black. The mattress was quite hard and uncomfortable.

When we arrived it was Christmas eve, the front counter guy was not around, waited foe 10 min used the phone to page him but no answer. I finally went into the employee only rooms and found the counter guy. One guy who was east Indian was loud all night making his car beep. I think we worked there him and his lady were fighting.

Staff was great, but the walls were so thin you could hear what the person next to you was watching on TV. My shower curtain would not stay closed, both sides kept opening to the middle of the tub area. Another room had the same issue due to the shower curtain improper installation. So water everywhere and had to keep shutting it while showering to stay warm and keep the water in the tub. Light in the bathroom kept flickering and turned into strobe mode. Then light turned itself off mid shower both days. I would not stay here again. Staff accidentally set off the fire alarm at 5 am.
