I don't generally leave low rating reviews, but have been left no choice. It's been a couple of years since I have stayed at the comfort inn and it's fair to say their rooms are in much need of updating! There is wear and tear on the furniture, fridge, the beds, etc. There are dirty stains all over the carpet. The curtain rod is falling down and dirty hand prints on the walls. The office chair is visibly falling apart and the list goes on. The reason I've left my review so low is mostly because I opened up my towel in the morning after having a shower to discover what I can only explain as a fecal stain which is unacceptable! I also don't like the fact that we're expected to wash our dishes in a basin where facial hair is shaved, amongst other body parts and people are brushing their teeth in. Not to mention probably vomiting spitting and God knows what else. I'm not even sure if that's legal? Will I stay here again? No.
