“Comfort Inn & Suites, near the University area, strikes me as convenient for a quick overnight, located right off the interstate and featuring a friendly staff, even late at night; still, longer stays might feel less appealing, considering the overall need for some remodeling. I think this hotel could be ideal for short trips where practicality outweighs polish.”
