Comfort Inn University

Comfort Inn University

10/10 Excellent
"Great place! The staff was very welcoming and helpful! They have fresh coffee/tea 24/7. They also have free cookies and popcorn throughout the day. The breakfast was very good, they had biscuits and gravy, eggs, Sausage, waffles, potatoes, grits etc etc. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfy. Walmart, target, sams club etc are very close by along with tons of restaurants. We had no issues at all and will definitely be staying here again"
