Stayed at this Comfort Inn on March 9, 2012. Total price for a single person, king bed room was $172.45. (Room 149.95, City/County tax $13.50, Occupancy Tax $9.00). Price was a little too steep for a Comfort Inn. I did hear the SXSW Festival was happening. It this was the reason for the high price, it sounds a bit like... More

Just stayed three nights at this hotel, and it was a perfectly fine stay all around. The room was comfortable, and fit our needs very well since there were three adults - and the extra sofa bed allowed for us to each have a bed. The shower was fine with plenty of hot water. The indoor pool is very small... More

We stayed at this location last week and I will have to say that I have decided NOT to book at any Comfort Inns/Comfort Suites in the future. After traveling all day, it was late before we settled into our room. The bathtub was so bad that I skipped the tub visit and cleaned up at the sink. An earlier... More

We regret that you were not satisfied with your stay with us. We are sorry for the condition of some of the finishes of our bathtubs, as stated we are in the process of correcting the substandard work that was done. We have many satisfied guests that do return to our Comfort Suites on a regular basis. I do hope... More

I had no problems with the rooms. Just a little worried about leaving my car in the parking lot and spots were very hard to come by. The room was ok (5 on a scale of 1-10), breakfast the same. I just expected more for the price and hotel chain. I had no issues but will try another hotel in... More

I found a bug crawling on the bedspread that looked like it could bite so I scooped it up in a cup and pulled the covers back to look in the bed and there was red blood on the bottom sheet I went and got the manager David (very Nice). He confirmed that it was indeed a bed bug and... More

The room was quiet facing away from traffic with a comfortable bed. The breakfast had many choices but they didn't have regular flavored oatmeal and the juice wasn't very good. The spa was good to and the location is near downtown. The downside of the hotel was the condition. The fitness center had such a musty smell that I wouldn't... More

We've always enjoyed staying at this hotel. The continental breakfast is hard to beat and the staff is very courteous and helpful. The only gripe I have is the pool does not appear to be heated, which makes it a bit chilly during winter. More

We were on a 9-day trip, and stayed here 2 nights because it was close to family. We were surprised that for a place that SEEMS newer, it looked old on the inside. I think maybe it wasn't maintained well. The room seemed old and was the only hotel room on our trip that had an odor, not sure if... More

This hotel seemed kind of worn out. For us it was just "meh". Not great, not horrible. Service was good, staff friendly and helpful. Was easy to find and relatively inexpensive. Was quiet and close enough to things we wanted to go to. It seemed clean. The free high speed internet was easy to use. The room was ok EXCEPT... More
