| - I was not sure what to expect from a hotel of this type in a major metropolitan area - sometimes the rooms are very small, and phrases like "limited parking" "first come first served" are also a bit daunting. I was pleasantly surprised - and relieved - by the nice size of the room, though the bathroom was a little smaller, and the double beds also seemed a bit small. "Temperature control" is an old-style in-the-wall air conditioner. But there were plenty of outlets and USB port around the room, and the beds were comfortable.
Parking is indeed limited, something like 16 spots downstairs. The good news is that if you can get one (which I did), it's yours for the rest of your stay, i.e., in-and-out privileges. When you go out, they'll put something in that spot to show its reserved. But it can be difficult squeezing into these spots with anything larger than a compact car.
The breakfast area is actually on the first floor and not on the ground floor. It's a very large space, and I'd give the ladies who work here 5 stars apiece for the amount of work they do to keep things stocked. The waffle maker does not have a timer on it; you have to guess when your waffle is done. Otherwise, it's pretty standard Comfort Inn breakfast.
This was also the first hotel at which I've stayed in a long time where they could not make change for me at the front desk (insufficient paper money).
But for all these nits, I did enjoy my stay here, it was comfortable, and I would definitely consider staying here again if I were in the area.
