The bad experience started on checkout. The front counter staff member was disrespectfully and appeared unfocused.
Next was the challenge with the room. Entering our room on the second floor, we were hit with a wall of heat. The room thermostat was registering 80F. Even with the air conditioner set at its coldest setting and highest fan speed and leaving the window and drapes propped open (it was below 0C outside that night) the room never reached a comfortable temperature. We had to sleep above the covers and we both constantly awoke throughout the night. Very disappointing and restless night for both of us.
Finally, the continental breakfast almost made me sick.
The food selection was acceptable but I settled on an pre-wrapped egg on an English muffin. A quick heat in the microwave but when I opened up the wrapping paper I was greeted with a muffin that was completely covered in mold. Needless to say, I lost my appetite. I grabbed the muffin and took it to the front counter, wanting to alert the staff of the state of the breakfast. The gentlemen at the front counter looked at it, and just threw it in the garbage - no apology or effort to try to correct the issue. He did not even bother to get off his chair. He used the excuse that it probably was just a mistake in the way the food was rotated. Completely unprofessional client service top to bottom. I do not thing I will be staying at a Comfort Inn if this is what I can expect from my experience.
