The door to the balcony was extremely heavy and difficult to open. The pool was quiet and relaxing. Easy access ..."

"About what I expected for a Comfort Inn, but our ground floor room was pretty noisy. Breakfast was fine, although they could have changed it up a little day-to-day (maybe switch bacon for sausage?). Did see fairly expensive, though, for a Comfort Inn."
