“So good we looked for others in this chain during our hols”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

We stayed at the Comfort Inn & Suites in Fresno, so am hoping that it is the same place as the Comfort Inn! For us it was a great find to the extent that we were looking for others in the same chain during our holiday - we would have stayed in another. We negotiated the price with the reception (managed to get a good deal) and found the accommodation to be extremely good value. There were computers in the spacious, comfortable, lounge area for those of us who were not travelling with our own. The room was just perfect in every way with nice decor and a lovely bathroom. It was an added bonus to have breakfast included and very good it was too! We found a superb Thai restaurant for our evening meal just around the corner less than 5 mins walking distance. We had a great experience at this hotel and would search it out again without hesitation.

“Clean, comfortable, with a couple of annoyances”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 December 2011

Pro: very clean and well maintained; comfortable furnishings. Friendly and helpful service.

Con: water flow in the sink was so weak and slow as to be insulting; TV channel selection included about half a dozen versions of ESPN, but no CNBC, MSNBC, or C-Span. Location is difficult to get into - most people will have to take a left turn across a stretch of road that is often backed up with more than a block's worth of traffic.

Thank you for your review and comments regarding your stay with us at the Comfort Inn Fresno. We pride ourselves in our cleanliness, service and overall guest experience. In our efforts to continue improving and providing a comfortable stay for our guests, we have addressed your concerns.

After researching the options, we have changed to a different faucet head that provides better distributed pressure and still eco friendly. We are also improving our guest’s TV experience. We have upgraded all rooms with 32” flat screen televisions and will be looking to provide a channel line up that appeals to the interest of our guests and stay within our brand standards. And finally, the road entering our Hotel has been under construction to widen and add lanes. This project was designed to ease the flow of traffic and will make access to our entrance easier.

Thank you for your comments and we hope to see you soon.

“Tried to Charge my card extra 20 after checkout”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2011

We selected this hotel for a one night stop over during a road trip. Nothing special about the place, just a room for the night. Front staff very friendly on check in and found a special walk in rate which clinched the deal. Standard reasonably well maintained formula motel. But...

* Wifi didn't work well and before getting connected had to spend an hour on the phone with their network support team which is located somewhere in Wisconsin or Michigan. Guy flat out said, "I'm not comin over there tonight". But he did get it working, just lost an hour of sleep.

* THE BIG ONE, good thing I used AMEX and check my charges online regularly. Couple days after checking out, they charged an extra 20 bucks to my card. Thank God it was AMEX, just called em up and had the charge reversed. Figured I'd give the hotel a month to figure out a way to send me an apology before writing this review. But nothing and no further inquiries from AMEX, therefore the hotel didn't challenge it or provide any explanation. Also, there is no mini bar - room service etc. so no chance for an extra charge. Like they say, everything is free.

So, sorry to the nice lady at reception but this hotel gets a 1. There's nothing worse than having to waste time watching my charges and be on the lookout for stuff like this. Anytime I bust a place for something like this and don't get offered any explanation, they get a 1, and it's almost the only way I would give such a horrible rating.

Happy Traveling

Room Tip: Watch your charges after staying here :-(

Hello and thank you for your review on Trip Advisor. I apologize for the extra charge on your card and spoke to the GM concerning this. We have neither received an inquiry from AMEX or any guests concerning an overcharge, charge back nor any disputes. I would have suggested calling the hotel to verify the charge and confirm it was not a pending charge which would have been released automatically. I also would like to have seen why an extra charge was given to any of my guest which would not be acceptable without a strong explanation. We have addressed the internet with our service provider and informed them this is not acceptable service, not only to our Hotel but more so our guest! We have corrected the issue and will continue to do our best to provide quick and reliable Wi-Fi.
Please contact the GM or myself at the hotel at least with a name in order to correct any mischarges and avoid this happening to another guest. We do appreciate your business and hope to hear from you in the near future. Wasted Time is never productive. Time to Correct and Improve is Time well spent. Happy Holidays.

“Disappointed!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2011

First of all we stayed a night here because of the high rating on Trip Advisor. It was close to many resturants. The employee at the front desk in the evening was very friendly and helpful. However the girls working in the morning at the desk and in charge of the Breakfast were grumpy. The bed and breakfast were okay. This hotel was the noisiest I have ever stayed in. Despite the beautiful decor in the front lobby, the hotel was not well-built because a cold draft from the window kept the heater going on all night which made it very warm for us to sleep. And the noise from the freeway and main street going in front and at the side of the hotel made us feel like we were sleeping outside. We woke up very unrested.

Room Tip: We stayed in the middle. For sure don't stay in the rooms on the side closer to Shaw Street, tha...

Thank you for your review and I do apologize for the no so comfortable experience with our hotel. I am very sorry about the draft in the window and would recommend notifying the Front Desk so we may have a chance to address your concerns. Also, I would like to know which room this occurred in to avoid having this happen to another guest. Our Maintenance Program requires our windows to be locked and checked for noise and drafts coming in. It looks like this one room may have been overlooked. I sincerely apologize for our breakfast hostess and will address her personally about her grumpy attitude shown to our guest. On a regular basis we get compliments on our Hostess’s attitude and service. I do apologize for this occurrence. Please allow us to prove we have great service and with the exception of one room with a draft, our hotel is quite comfortable. As you indicated, with the great reviews on Trip Advisor, overall the hotel is comfortable and a great value. Thank you again and Happy Holidays!!

“Best place for over night vacation off Hwy 99, Fresno,Ca.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

After long day in LA, we arrived here late in the evening. Wendy at the desk was very kind and helpful though in next 4 days we found all staffs were very polite and courteous to us and to hotel guests.
Very clean room, with all the facilities one can ask for, however for laundry we had to drive about half a mile on Shaw Ave. which was ok since we were going out for our dinner anyway.

Room Tip: Great location off Hwy 99 which is passing thru Fresno,Ca. Very comfy room. We were in Rm.236, nice...
