“A Reservation Guaranteed with a Credit Card does not Guarantee You a Room!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 May 2010

I was traveling to attend my daughter's college graduation. I thought I was being proactive by making a reservation two months in advance, and checking on the reservation often. I even called at 8:30 pm to ensure that arriving at 10:30 pm would not be a problem. I was told "Oh no, your room is guaranteed until 7 am tomorrow morning." Imagine how appaled I was when I arrived at 10:30pm only to be told that my room had been given away. I was told that I could go to the Holiday Inn next door, and that Comfort Suites would pay for my stay. This was a lie, because when I checked my banking activity the next morning, I found that not only did Comfort Suites charge me, but so did Holiday Inn. I immediately called Comfort Suites and was told that nothing could be done until Monday. I called the Holiday Inn and received the same answer. Apparently, managers do not work on the weekends. As if that experience was not distrubing enough, I never gave Holiday Inn my credit card, so that means Comfort Suites gave them my credit card number, which is not only unethical, but I believe illegal.

The most tragic piece of this awful experience is that a day that should have been joyful was turned into something by people who simply did not care that they had made not just one mistake, but three, and probably broke the law in the process. I would not recommend staying here if you are worried about identify theft, or if you believe that a credit card reservation really guarantees a room.

Stayed May 2010, travelled with family

“Nice hotel that needs attention to staff training”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2009

I stayed here 2 nights. The rooms are updated and new. I was impressed with the remodel. The location is right near 3 other hotels...they share the same parking lot. It is very easy to find and close to Angelina College,which is where I was speaking.


Check in was efficient. I asked if I could use the computer in the lobby and was told that it had been broken all week ( it was Friday) and that a technician had to come from Dallas ( what?) and it could be a while.

My room was very pleasant, spacious and clean. At 8:30, I was watching a fuzzy TV and picked up the phone to call for a wake up call. The phone DID NOT WORK. This is a risk management issue as someone may have a heart attack or an allergic reaction in the middle of the night and need to call the front desk ASAP.

I switched the cord into several outlets and also wall plugs...nothing. I called the front desk on my cell phone and told her what was up. I asked if I could get another phone. I was told that she did not have one. She offered to move me to another room.

HELLO...COULD YOU NOT JUST BRING ME A WORKING PHONE FROM ANOTHER ROOM? If an iron did not work, would you move the guest to another room or get them a different iron?

The front desk girl laughed at me when I told her that there could be an emergency and that it was dangerous.

I was put off and tried to relax. Finally, I fiddled with the wire and got the phone to work. I left a note for housekeeping and the note that was left back for me said the phone would be fixed on Monday...it was Saturday.


MORAL...always check your phone when you walk into your room and do not wait until the night crew gets there....LOL!

With 3 other hotels sharing the same parking lot, this hotel has a lot to learn!

“Excellent Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2008

Excellent Place. Very Clean. Very Quiet. They even had a baseball tornament going on with teenaged kids and they didn't cause any problems or make alot of noise. The only concern that we had that was that the description of the hotel stated that they had a heated indoor pool. All is true but the heated part. The pool was freezing. However, that didn't ruin our stay. We will be staying again.

  • Liked — Everything
  • Disliked — The pool wasn't heated

“Quaint, Decent Room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 March 2007

I see alot of other people didnt really enjoy their stay here - I however, was surprised at how nice the room was - clean and it didnt smell moldy like some hotel rooms often do in humid areas. I enjoyed my stay here and the staff was very helpful. Its probably best to call and see if you can request a room to your liking if you have doubts. Wireless Interenet was a plus and I didn't have any issues at all.

  • Liked — Quick check-in, clean room, friendly staff
  • Disliked — No complaints

“Rate Switch”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2006

A reservation was made two weeks in advance and the confirmation number was received. However, upon check-in the prices quoted were double to us as well as several other families in the lobby. We showed them our confirmation number and they said that we could pay it or leave and if we argued they would call the police.
The rudeness and unprofessionalism of the clerks as well as the management prompted me to write this review and save you the time we wasted with a company that clearly is cheating its customers.

  • Liked — Not a thing.
  • Disliked — The rudeness of the staff and the vomit in the pool which was not cleaned upon notification.
  • Tips/Secrets — Stay away - they will rip you off at the front desk.
