“Excellent Motel, Perfect Parking”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 15, 2012

This is an excellent motel, great rooms, fantastic staff and this is the best parking for cars with a separate parking for rv's and tractor trailers.

Let me rant and rave about the rv/truck parking. The car parking is directly in front of the motel like normal, there is a 10 foot grass strip and then you have the rv/truck parking. It's paved with lines for parking. It's far enough from the front of the motel so you won't hear a refrigerated trailer running.

It's within walking distance of several restaurants and a Subway. It's also within walking distance of a Cabella's which can supply cold weather gear and rv stuff to whoever needs it.

“Marginal”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 23, 2012 via mobile

Person checking us in and person serving breakfast today were very kind.. The service was great! I wish I caught their names... We came in on 7/22.

Likely due to humidity, our first room and it's hallway smelled like dog urine. Our quick move to another room was fixed immediately. Our bathroom fan didn't work but the water was hot. Seemed like a bit pricey for what we got at 100.00/the night.

It was a great pool and hot hot tub that helped invigorate us after a week in the boundary waters

“On the Fly!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 26, 2012

I recently stayed in the Comfort Inn...had to go out of town suddenly and arrived late...to find this little number...Customer service was Excellent...The room was clean, and smelled clean...Great location with plenty of dining and Cabela's next door. I could walk to get a bite to eat. Coffee. And bought way too much Chocolate at the local Russell Stover shop. Would stay again and highly recommend. Thank you Comfort Inn.

“Nice Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 16, 2012

We stayed here for two nights. The hotel is nice. From other reviews here, I guess they did renovations. Overall it looks good. The room was clean. The front desk staff was polite. Overall it was pretty quiet. The only real complaint I had was the breakfast. The advertise a hot breakfast. It started at 6, by 7 the were out of everything "hot" and had to prepare more. We had to be somewhere, so ended up not being able to eat anything but a cinnamon roll. The breakfast room is very small and cramped. There are several lunch and dinner choices at this exit.

Dear Guest,

Thank you for your kind words about Comfort Inn Owatonna.

Also, thank you for taking the time to post your review regarding your recent visit to our hotel.

Your kind words for the front desk staff and housekeeping are truly appreciated. Given the nature of the hotel business, the hours can be long and demanding. Good service depends upon our staff giving their very best at all times, that's why it is truly rewarding when a guest recognizes our staff's efforts.

Your comments regarding our breakfast are valued feedback, and I will make sure that we make improvements in this area.

Sincerely,
Vicki Lysne

“Nice place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 12, 2012

We met some relatives here for the weekend. I was a little skeptical after reading about all of the remodeling, but found no problems. The stairwell carpet was torn out, but in order to make things better I guess it has to be replaced some time! The beds were very comfortable and had lots of pillows. Room was clean and the breakfast had a large selection. It is within walking distance to Cabela's as well as Famous Dave's and a couple of other restaurant selections.

Room Tip: We had a room on the end, away from the elevators. Nice and quiet.
