Why I’ll Always Stay in This Comfort Suites When in Springfield Oregon

 hotel; choice; comfort suites

My dear polite travelers,

In truth, on this exceedingly long road trip, we chose this Comfort Suites Hotel based on its proximity to my oldest grandson who lives in Eugene—such a lovely person.  Not surprisingly, I liked this hotel very much.  Choice Suites tend to be comfortable, and this one is just that. 

A list of hotels and a map of our journey.   

Room #322

Upon opening the door, I noticed the clean smell.  It was also neat with a couch, desk, adequate storage, comfy bed and best of all: lots of outlets!  Woohoo!! 

The view wasn’t the best, but the area is a quiet enclave of hotels. We had no trouble sleeping peacefully throughout the night. 

The Hotel

Due to our road trip schedule, we truly had little time for picture-taking.  Plus, my main goal was to hurry up, get out, and see my grandson.  Nevertheless, there are plenty of exceptionally good pictures on the hotel's website.  So please check out the décor, large accessible indoor pool/spa, and gym.  Please note my breakfast room and meal options video posted below. 

In short, I found the hotel to be clean, with plenty of seating areas, and spacious.

Note

This hotel, and most other Choice properties we stayed in, is pet friendly and accessible.  

The Free Breakfast

This hotel boasts its hot breakfast which is passable.  It includes two choices of omelets, ham, French toast, uninteresting pastries, and waffles.  There were plenty of other items of interest, like full-sized yogurt, boiled eggs, and cartons of chocolate milk.  This hotel provided more options than most, but it pays to be fussy. 

Pro Tip

Skip the omelets unless you love Velveeta.  One is jam-packed full of the gooey, oily stuff, while the other...well, besides the small cubes of ham, the rest is unrecognizable.

Will I Return?

We may return due to the proximity to our grandson and our love of the area.  The hotel is comfortable, affordable, and near some great restaurants.  So, our next visit may be soon.  

Until next time, my polite travelers: Happy Travels!

Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa Review

Art, Excellent Service & Penguins...Oh My My Dear Polite Travelers, Maui has experienced some horrific natural disasters, including a devastating fire and, more recently, torrential rain that caused severe flooding.  However, none of that was visible during my last visit.  The Hyatt Regency Maui Resort is a huge, richly landscaped, multi-building beauty.  It includes a 40-acre oceanfront lagoon and a waterslide into a children’s splashpad.  However, I saw many more adults enjoying the splashpad than children.  It did look inviting.   Directly adjacent to the lobby is a penguin den.  Guests are invited to watch a daily penguin presentation.  I enjoyed watching them play.  They are quite adorable.     Dining & Shopping In the main building, you’ll find multiple shops, including a gallery filled with unique and quite excellent art.  My favorite shop was actually Honolulu Coffee .  As a family-owned,...

A Few Days in Palm Springs

Palm Springs Activities Hello, my Polite Travelers, As an older couple, we often just want to relax and enjoy our favorite places at a leisurely pace. This was the case during our recent revisit to Palm Springs. For the most part, we explored downtown, stopping for coffee and chatting with the locals. Additionally, we embarked on a few other excellent adventures. Agua Caliente Cultural Museum As a Smithsonian Affiliate, I found this museum to be outstanding.  This museum is a mixture of immersive video, sound, and visuals (including lifelike exhibits) to tell the story of America’s rich—and many times heart-wrenching—indigenous story.  The permanent gallery begins with the 360-degree immersive video of the Agua Caliente “Creation & Migration” story.  The quality of their digital animation and sound is impressive—there’s even a screen on the floor.  I found their creation story to be fascinating. Don’t Miss! For the Love of Art! Don’t Miss The Palm Springs Art M...

Did that really happen at this Hampton Inn?

Hampton Inn & Suites Palm Desert, CA—Hotel & Room #330 Review Hello, my Polite Travelers. We are now in sunny Palm Desert, and it is a grand place.  Everything looks clean and new.  Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the Hampton Inn.  It pains me to say it, but this hotel needs some love…and perhaps a good handyman.  Our room is an accessible room for hubby.  On first glance, it’s adequate, with space between furniture and grab bars in the bathroom.  That’s only the first glance.   Blink once more, and there are a few issues for both the mobile and mobility-challenged .  First, although the bathroom features plenty of grab bars, the toilet is too low, and accessible toilets require taller seats.   The shampoo bar is too high, and there’s no pull-down seat in the tub.  Those in wheelchairs would require a different room, and most mobility-challenged people can’t reach up to access the shampoo bar.   ...
