Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities

The room had a smell and was extremely outdated. . I asked for an extra blanket and pillows and was told they didn’t have any. The profile on the site showed a pool but when I checked in it was closed as they are making it a conference room. This is totally false advertisement. I will not be staying at another Comfort Inn EVER!! And am now questioning Expedia for this stay option.

Liked: Staff & service

Room was nice enough and clean. I did check the mattresses and they were clean. The one day the breakfast was a bit lacking but other days it wag fine, i think maybe a support staff instead of the owner was there that day. That area of Dekalb is questionable and by the train tracks that go through at night hourly and very loud. I got use to it after a while. I did see a lot of trash and garbage on the outside of the building which i think would be my only area of improvement that's controllable. The hotel smelt strongly of weed in the back stairway several days and had someone lurking behind the building smoking. I know it's legal in that state but it's still awkward and smells bad. Again probably factors that's out of the control of the hotel itself.

The check in was easy and the staff were friendly. The room was clean, only complaint was poor water pressure at the sink. The outside grounds were overall clean, however when we left on a Sunday morning there was considerable trash on the ground by a wooded area by the parking lot.

Okay but not great

The elevator and common areas were really dirty. The room was clean enough but there was only one towel, one washcloth, etc. and the surfaces in the room really needed to be wiped down. No hair dryer.

Perfect if you don’t want to get any rest

Oh, where to start? Maybe with the railroad that is practically in the parking lot and shakes the whole building every other hour when a train goes by. Or with the bar right against the backside of the building with live music till midnight. Or maybe the hookers in the back parking lot As well as druggies and homeless wandering around and even some sleeping on The chairs in the lobby. Besides all of that, They also won’t do housekeeping unless you request it. The AC in the rooms Barely work as well And not to mention the water in the showers doesn’t cool down and is burning hot to the touch when it is turned all the way down. All they did was a cheap remodel, trying to make it look modern and give it a facelift when in reality it’s outdated and old. The remodel work is horribly done. So yes, needless to say we’ll never be staying here again. The only positive note was the front desk, lady that was there in the mornings till afternoon she was very sweet and tried to be helpful.
