Over all it was ok just the rooms were small and the TV was old, the ac didn't work appropriately and the door to the closet was so difficult to open. But it was so convenient for getting to Kalamazoo College that's the only thing I love about it.

Deborah

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff was very helpful and polite. Some things out of their control that the property manager should fix are: bathroom in the lobby permanently closed,(sign instructing not to use) doors other than the front door out of order, (sign instructing not to use) replace carpet in stairs or use a professional carpet cleaner- staff vacuumed and cleaned often, but there was a strong smell of deodorizer masking a worse smell. Bathrooms lack ventilation fans. We loved the location, generous refrigerator size, and friendliness of staff. Breakfast could use some gluten free options for cereal. Maybe some oatmeal and more than one kind of yogurt) Overall, a good value for the price.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The tub was dirty and a small amount toilet paper in the bathroom. The towels were dingy, had holes and several big gray spots on them. My coffee had slimmy film floating on top of the cup. I point this out the front desk. She looked me and gave a roll of tissue. No apologies, but she was respectful. I will not be staying at another Comfort Inn or an Affiliate. I also took pictures

I needed a place to crash as I wasn't going to make the entire drive from Port Huron, Michigan to Chicago, Illinois in one night. Reservations at the last minute and was able to check in after 11PM. Got some rest and continued the journey the next morning. Included breakfast had the 150 second waffle maker and the usual fare. Only disappointment might be the absence of regular yogurt. The 'lite' stuff had aspartame or some other artificial sweetener in it.

2 bugs in our beds and staff mentioned there was no other spots available for us. we made this work, because we had no other options, but would request a refund for our stay. We were told it was a management decision, but he/she wouldnt be available until 9 a.m. We had to leave by 7 a.m. Please let us know how this can be resolved.
