Pleasantly Surprised
I recently went to Denver for work and could not find a room one of the "nicer" hotels (Marriott, Sheraton, Hyatt) in which I would normally stay. However, I did find a room at the Comfort Inn Downtown for a very reasonable rate. It was in walking distance to the Convention Center where I needed to be and a block off of the shopping and eating on 16th Street. I was expecting a bland entry, thin sheets, little towels - the typical average hotel. I was pleasantly surprised. The lobby was very nice. The hotel personnel were extremely courteous and knowledgeable while maintaining the utmost professionalism and efficiency. The rooms were great with plenty of electric outlets. The beds were comfy, the view was good, the updates made the difference. It was as nice as the "nicer" hotels and the free breakfast was a perfect compliment of hot and cold continental fare. There weren't a lot of choices but the for free, what can one expect. The fitness center was appropriate as well. The only downside is the $25.00 per night for valet parking with no self park options. However, the valet was very efficient in retrieving my car. All in all, this was nice hotel with all of the options a business traveler needed for the right price. I highly recommend it.
