I had really high hopes for this property but upon returning to my room for the evening as soon as I walked through the door I see a roach on the floor . Then I turn the lights on and I see a roach on the sink. Due to this I cannot give this anything higher than a 2 star. Check in was great the front desk person was super nice even though she had a line through the lobby she didn’t look frantic and gave everyone the time of day. That’s why I couldn’t give this place a 1 star .

I was glad to get a 2 room suite. It was very spacious. Had a full size fridge. It wasnt made clear that to check in to the Mainstay you had to cross the parking lot and check in at the Comfort inn. But otherwise it was good.

The evening shift staff was awesome. She was super friendly and happy attitude. I don’t see good customer service anymore. She deserves a raise. Happy workers make happy customers who come back.

Not the best for the ratings it has

Checkin is at another hotel accross the street. I was walking around trying to find the front desk for a while until a guess saw me and notice that I was lost. Also the room is not the best room, it doesn't look any closer to the pictures. I thought it would be a great hotel becaise of the ratings, but nah

We were traveling with a toddler, and were not aware that there was an adult bar attached to the hotel. Once we arrived we had to check in at the hotel that was next to the one we were staying in. We stayed in Mainstay and had to check in at Comfort Suites. I’m not sure if the lobby that used to be at Mainstay was the new “bar” or if the property was built in with no lobby. We were able to hear loud music from the first floor where we were accommodated. The lady who checked us in was very nice and even asked if wanted to be relocated but we were very tired since we had been traveling all day we decided to keep the room. It would’ve been nice to know that there was an adult bar located in the hotel, I saw that the hotel had average reviews and did not read all the reviews that mentioned the adult bar.
