We traveled to Kalamazoo to see Buddy Guy on his final tour at the State Theater. The hotel was very close to the venue and so many restaurants. We went to Hopcat. Initially after reading such terrible revues on this Comfort Inn we were very worried about our stay. We were so pleasantly surprised at how comfortable it ended up being. It smelled clean upon entering because it was clean. Staff was very pleasant . Fridge worked. Microwave worked. Rooms were spacious. Breakfast was the same as any Comfort Inn, enough to do the job and break your fast.There was limited parking on the premises but we always found a spot and there was legal parking on the street in case. Pillows and beds were very comfortable.

The place is a dump - avoid!
The place is in terrible condition - run down, shoddy, you get overdosed with chemicals trying to mask old, stale cigarette smells. The only thing it has going for it is location. Don’t recommend to anyone.

Staff was very accommodating. Rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable….slept well. Shower was good. Bath towels are past their prime and should be replaced. Wash cloths and hand towels are good. Breakfast was ok. Small/medium parking area. Outside grounds needs a little TLC….daily garbage clean up and weed trimming.

The location of this property looks great on the map. About a few blocks from downtown, with proximity to everything there pretty much is in Kalamazoo. Well let me tell you it’s very sketchy. Lots of homeless people. The hotels it self the staff tries all very polite etc. the rooms need attention to detail. It doesn’t seem the cleanness.

You get what you pay for. The lobby was very clean and fresh smelling and the room is acceptable. It was fine for just spending the night, but I couldn’t imagine spending more than a day there. The neighborhood around it is pretty sketchy.
