Wi-Fi service was free but not friendly. We often had to sign in repeatedly during the day. I once had to go to the lobby to sign in. This is not up to normal Comfort Inn standards!

This was a great and quiet place to stay off 75-we had a room that backed up to the interstate and you could not hear the vehicle sounds unless a truck was really loud. The staff was great at checkin and helped us change a room to be more convenient for us with a pet. The room was very clean and well equipped with a working TV and coffeemaker and refrigerator. Bed was comfortable with a new looking duvet cover. Dog walking options were limited to a few grassy boulevards and walks down the street by various other hotels=which worked for us. A park was about 17m,inutes away but the dog was fine. Popcorn and cookies were nice treats. Fitness center was small but well equipped with working treadmill and elliptical. A whole set of hand weights were also available. We would definitely stay here again.
