It was just OK. We didnt inspect the room as soon as we got there because we had been driving for a while with 3 kids who were hungry so we decided to walk about half a mile away to Cotton Patch Cafe for dinner. As we left the room we noticed the door didnt close so we examined it closer and one of the screws on the latch plate was loose/stripped and wouldnt stay in the door frame so any time we left we had double check to make sure the door closed. As soon as we returned we went swimming, the pool area was decent, perfect temperature as well as the hot tub, everything worked as it should.
After swimming it was time to get the kids bathed and in bed for our continued trip the next day, thats when I noticed there wasnt a drain plug/stopper in the bath tub, again we have 3 kids who needed baths. I attempted to contact the front desk using BOTH phones that were in our room and neither of them worked so I had to rediaper my 19 month old and carry her back downstairs with me. I was told they didnt have any plugs for the bath tub and was handed a wash cloth and told to "stick it down in the drain". Whatever...it worked.
Knowing there were adults and children booked for our room you would think they would have either put sheets on the pull out sleeper or had them available in our room for us, nope, my husband had to go downstairs twice to get bedding because he was only given a flat sheet and blanket the first trip down. The blow dryer kept falling off the hook, the A/C didnt cool the room very well, and the fridge ticked all night long!
The continental breakfast was less than appealing, they had cereal, bags of instant oatmeal, bagels, toast, sausage, wrapped up sausage egg biscuits, waffles, nasty scrambled eggs, coffee, juice, and water. The hotel could use some improvement, crackes in the walls and rooms lacking in many areas.
Lastly, our trip was prepaid through a 3rd party website like we have done many times before without problem, after leaving (Saturday) I noticed Comfort Suites had charged my card nearly $60, called to find out what was going on but the people on duty couldnt answer any questions. The next day (Sunday) there was a second charge for the same amount along with 1 return. Finally, on Monday I was able to speak with the manager (Sandy) and she was able to tell me what had happened and the second charge fell off this morning (Tuesday).
I had read many reviews about Sandy, saying she was hard to deal with and unprofessional but my experience with her was great, she was very kind, informative, and concerned about making things right.
Overall, I probably wouldnt stay here again because of the problems we had, the issues with the room, and the lack of concern from the staff other than the manager.
The hotel is in a decent location, right across from and Aldi, and half a mile from El Chico, Cotton Patch, Sonic, and CVS. It was nice to be able to walk to and from dinner after being in the truck for several hours. read more
