Categories

Cleanliness
3.5
Multiple reviews report strong mildew/mold smells, dirty rooms, water on floor, carpets and bathrooms with mold, sheets not changed — clearly poor cleanliness.
Service
6
Mixed service: several reports of rude, unhelpful front desk staff and poor attitudes, but a few mentions of pleasant/ friendly attendants; overall inconsistent but not uniformly terrible.
Location
9.5
Frequently noted as a positive: close to the beach and convenient for desired areas — location is consistently good in reviews.
Room Quality
4
Rooms had issues: no central AC in some, hot and humid, broken doors, leaking toilets, unpleasant odors and leftover trash from prior guests — room quality is below standard.
Amenities
6
Amenities are hit-or-miss: free breakfast offered and pool/hot tub available but hot tub often out of order, pool odor issues, breakfast items not well stocked and facility maintenance problems.
Value for Money
8.5
Several guests explicitly said prices were fair and location proximity added value; despite problems, price perception is relatively positive compared with expectations.
Food and Beverage
6
Breakfast experiences vary: some described delicious/fresh offerings while many others reported items not refilled, early cutoff, and poor quality — overall mixed leaning slightly positive.
Overall Experience
5.3
Overall experience is mixed-to-negative: location and occasional friendly staff are positives, but recurring cleanliness, room condition and service issues weigh down the stay.

Check in employee
Pros:

Clean and comfortable

Cons:

Once I got to the hotel they charged more. The lady that checked us in was very rude. I booked through booking dot com. Which said I was paid in full. But once I got to the hotel , they charged more. I was very upset. She told me I needed to look at the plaque on the wall. And I told her , it's hard to see the plaque from my home state. She told me I was disrespecting her.\nAnd was gonna cancel my room. After driving for 2 days i felt like she was disrespecting me.. Twice

Pros:

Prices were fair

Cons:

Floor was water logged, changed rooms due to door malfunction and when staff was communicated with, they gave tremendous attitude and were unprofessional. My deposit was held for no apparent reason also.

Location is good, but you can find something nicer.
Pros:

The Location and that's it.

Cons:

Staff could be trained a little more. The lady in front was just plain and dry. I don't expect a 5 star service from here, but at least the staff can try to be more personable. Coffee pot was always cold. No attempt from any personnel to assist. Thank G, they have waffle, or else Breakfast is trash. Microwave is rusted and safe box is sitting there dusty.

Will never spend money on Comfort Inn again.
Pros:

It was close to areas we wanted to go to.

Cons:

The staff was RUDE, all of them. Our room was dirty, had people’s trash from a previous stay, and had other people’s old food in our room. Wouldn’t give us extra towels. There was no soap in the bathrooms. Our room was never cleaned by staff during our stay. They wouldn’t give us pillows for the pull out couch, only a sheet and blanket. The pillows on the bed smelled like body odor. The breakfast was “out” at 7am and didn’t get refilled, everything stayed empty. When I asked for food to be brought out, employee brought out frozen biscuits. When we brought stuff to an employees attention they were very rude and unprofessional and one of the things an employee said was “do you know how to read?”
