Hotel chain reviews: Comfort Inn hotels – Part 1

Comfort Inns are what I consider “middle of the road” hotels. They are not extremely luxurious, but they are also not extremely expensive. I have had occasion to stay in several Comfort Inns over the years and have found them to be both affordable and comfortable.

Recently, my husband and I visited a Comfort Inn in San Francisco, California. We arrived a little late in the day, and we found that our reservation had been slightly messed up (they had us booked for two double beds instead of one Queen). The young man behind the desk was quick to remedy the situation despite the fact that the hotel was nearly booked. I was very impressed with his professionalism and his desire to make us comfortable.

Concerning the properties, they are generally very well cared for, updated frequently and maintained with the utmost attention to detail. Guest rooms are usually complimented with nice linens, bedding and entertainment systems (televisions, cable with pay-per-view, and often gaming systems for the kids). I have not stayed in a Comfort Inn that has not had a nice pool and spa that have been well kept and clean.

When it comes to affordability, this hotel chain is one of the best for what you receive. Typically, Comfort Inns range in price from as low as $95 to upwards of $180, depending upon the location and the time of year, but they provide services that are very well matched to these prices.

The next time that I take a vacation and plan to stay in a hotel where I can enjoy comfort, cleanliness and a wonderfully helpful staff, I will most definitely consider a Comfort Inn!
