What guests think

At Comfort Suites East Lincoln - Mall Area, travelers describe a convenient, generally quiet stay with friendly staff and spacious rooms, but note an aging property with recurring maintenance issues affecting air conditioning, plumbing, door locks, and occasionally the elevator.

Cleanliness is often solid, though some guests reported odors, worn bathrooms, stained items, or occasional pests. Facilities feedback includes repeated pool closures and a small, sometimes musty pool room when open, inconsistent gym equipment, and easy parking. Breakfast ranges from satisfying waffles and hot items to limited or poorly prepared options. Expect basic comfort and value with trade-offs from age and inconsistent upkeep.

When we went out for the day after sleeping, found out the door to the room didn’t latch shut. We had been leaving our room when it wasn’t locking. They did move us to another room to solve that issue. The air conditioning didn’t cool the room. The gym air conditioning was set to 78 and couldn’t be adjusted. The elliptical didn’t work and the treadmill incline didn’t work, so don’t plan on working out if you stay. Breakfast was good, you’re typical hotel breakfast. The property was probably once very nice, but now somewhat rundown with the slight smell of stale cigarettes in the room.

Pool was closed for maintenance - we wouldn't have booked here (with 3 kids) had we known. Front desk didn't seem to care nor try to make up for this in any way. Room was just ok. Paper thin walls so we got to enjoy the ladies in the adjoining room talking and watching movies all night long. The neighborhood wasn't very nice. Marijuana shop and an Irish pub in the same parking lot. Just a little too run down for our family. Didn't stay for breakfast.

This property is old and hasn’t been upgraded in some time. The television in my room only worked with local tv and no guide except for a printed version. Old. The fitness center contains three pieces of equipment and a total gym. Nice except the elipitical didn’t work and the television didn’t work. My room was spacious and the bedding was great.

Food was great, staff was great, pool was warm! The only bad thing was the gym equipment needs some fixes and/or upgrades. The equipment was spotty on whether or not it worked.

Our hallway on 3rd floor and the lobby were a sauna as we arrived on Thursday night. When we checked out on Saturday morning the Air Conditioning had still not been fixed. We also missed having cold water available in the juice machine during the breakfast hours so it made it difficult to fill up our water bottles. The hotel and staff were both great and the area was nice and quiet. I would stay there again after the A/C is fixed.

Pool did not have a drop of water in it, but this was not mentioned at the time of booking. We had 2 rooms in our party, keys wouldn't work on either door. 1 room ended up having to switch rooms since they were unable to unlock their door. Went to the front desk at least 5 times to reset key cards. Shower wall had hair all over it. Would have been fine if the price was not so high! Definitely won't pay that much for that again.

Room was warm. AC unit wasn’t working properly but I think the hotel reduced the air quality because I switched rooms twice and experienced the same outcome. Bedding was stained. Not a horrible stay but there should be more attention to detail with housekeeping.

The room itself was nice and roomy, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. Some chipping paint, but overall, a nice space. The pool was a nice temperature and a good size, but the pool room itself has broken tiles, and it smells musty/moldy. I would stay here again, though. Good breakfast, quiet rooms/halls.

Hotel seemed safe, fairly quiet. I liked that it was close to major streets but not on them- just off- so not quite as much traffic. Rooms could do with a bit of updating, as there were no USB ports anywhere. Most hotels now have USB ports in lamp bases or USB outlets.

Was very disappointed. Pictures made it look like a much newer hotel. It is certainly not new or newly renovated. The lobby seems fine, but the rooms seem old and outdated. My room had a lingering smoke and musky odor in it. For one night, it’s fine, but certainly better options available for the same price point.

The room, dark and dingy, the bed not the most comfortable but not bad but wallpaper peeling, cracks and peeling in the ceiling, especially above the bath tub, the window was cracked all the way through, the air conditioner couldnt keep up. I wont be staying again

We booked two nights & requested a 2pm check out because of a medical appointment. Manager refused and said would charge another night if we stayed. Not good PR. Check in is 4 pm.

It took all night for it to cool down after I put the air conditioner down to 60. It also was miles from the expressway and did not feel like a safe place.

Had to change rooms due to a loud noise coming from the air conditioning unit. There was no exhaust fan in the bathroom. The coffee maker/ice bucket was located in the bathroom. The freezer part in the frig was not working and was hanging down. The ice machine in the hallway on floor 3 was broken. The ice machine on floor 2 had several black rubber pieces come out with the ice. The breakfast was not good; super hard bagels, over ripe bananas; etc. The person in charge of the breakfast had to be told to turn the juice machine on by a guest. No comment cards were available at the front desk and the girl in charge was unconcerned about the issues brought to her attention. This was a very disappointing stay. Degrading to Comfort Suites elsewhere.
