“Great except the smoking.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel was nice. Beautiful back area with seating, large grass area and a small stream of water. Rooms were a bit outdated looking, but still the rooms were nice. Employees I encountered were friendly, breakfast had a nice variety, and hotel is conveniently located just outside of main Altoona.

My only negatives would be the pool area. The pool was nice and clear and felt very refreshing, however the hot tub was far too hot and even with the jets set to high and only turned on exactly where I was sitting there was very low water pressure. Not to mention the smoke that came into the pool area every time the employees took their cigarette breaks right outside the side stairwell doors was enough to make you sick (Another guest and I investigated the location of the smell that is how I found it to be employee break time). I can only assume there must be a ventilations system out those doors leading into the pool area, because the smell was so strong in the pool area it was if I was literally standing outside while they were smoking. After about the third break in a little over a hours time I finally gave up my pool area experience and went back to my room (the other guest gave up after the second time).

Thank you for taking the time to post your nice comments on your recent stay. I apologize for not exceeding your expectations regarding the smoking area near our pool area and the hot tub. I am looking into establishing another area for our employees to use as a smoking area. The hot tub is new and the adjustments to it are still being made. Please know that we are taking your feedback to heart and focusing on improving. It is our hope that you will give us another opportunity to serve you.
Sincerely,

“A Great Place To Stay!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

The employees and accommodations were excellent. Our high school brought our
team to play in this area and the staff was so accommodating and friendly. They
bent over backwards to meet all our needs. I would come back to this hotel and recommend
it to anyone. Chris Garber, Athletic Director Millbrook HS Winchester, VA

“Reasonable and nice place to Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012

I travel a great deal on business and this location was convenient to my office. It seems a bit off the beaten path to me, but if you need to stay in the area, I have no problem recommending it.

I stayed for two nights at this hotel. The staff was friendly and got me to my room quickly (having arrived rather late at night).

The room itself was clean and well kept, other than a few iron burns in the rug. I especially appreciated the flat screen TV in the room with a VGA port so I could connect my laptop and watch my Netflix and other movies on the TV (I brought my own cable just in case). I had a nice king size bed, a desk, a microwave, mini-fridge, and coffee maker in the room. Everything worked fine and met my needs.

I guess my one complaint, and it is a minor one, is no thermostat in the room. I had to get up several times during the night to adjust the heat after getting too hot or too cold.

I did not use the pool or athletic facilities, so I cannot speak to their quality.

Breakfast was a basic, cereal, rolls, juice, coffee type of affair. They had eggs and sausage, but they did not look particularly appetizing to me. Still I found enough that I liked to have a decent breakfast.

There are plenty of other restaurants within a few blocks, including one right next door. There are also a few fast food places and a good Chinese place just a few steps away from the hotel. There is also a TGIF and an Outback probably a mile up the road. So you have plenty of options for food.

The view is nothing special given that it is in a heavily commercial area, but my room in the back overlooking a small creek was nice, and there were no annoying lights shining in my room at night.

I thought the cost of the room was a little high given the other prices in the area. I stayed there because I am familiar with the quality of a Comfort Inn, and was not disappointed. If I needed to return to the area, I would definitely consider staying there again.

Room Tip: Rooms in the back have a slightly nicer view.

Please know that we are taking your feedback to heart and focusing on improving and so we are currently looking into installing thermostats in the rooms. It is our hope that you will give us another opportunity to serve you.

“Best of the Best”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

I stay here whenever I can attend my alma mater's football games. But I also travel to Sarasota,FL several times a year. I always stay at a Choice Privilges hotel during my travels. I can truly say that the facilities, staff, and location of the Comfort Inn in Duncansville spoils me for anyplace else! It is by far the BEST!

Room Tip: There is no "bad" room!!!!

“Perfect min-vacatiion”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 December 2011

I have relatives near Washington, DC and I live in Franklin, PA. Duncansville is about half way between them. We usually meet twice a year and we have always stayed at the Comfort Inn here. We have great service, the rooms are always ready when we get there, usually before noon. The staff is great and treat us like family. The breakfast food and staff is wonderful. The pool is clean and refreshing. The overall experience is nothing "fancy" but it is clean, friendly and located in an area with so much to do. If you are traveling through stop by and if you just want to get away for a few days this is the place. D. King
