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

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!

Kauai Vacation: Room Review

The Room Over The Power Plant Revised 4/2021 The Westin Princeville Ocean Resort Villas offers guests beautiful rooms, which include kitchens or kitchenettes, outdoor grills, and a number of pools. Most often, it includes an excellent restaurant, poolside bar, and small store. A large grocery store is within walking distance as well. Thus, the theory is that guests will not have to leave the property once they cross the big pond to reach it. Great theory, but that’s not necessarily true when the only on-site restaurant is closed. Add to that the incredibly loud room...well, let’s just say I needed a break from the property at times. Note : Follow Hawaii and CDC guidelines when visiting. Always wear your face mask when in public. May we just see the room we should have had? After an exceptionally long journey that included a broken plane and a rushed connection—not to mention airport security—we were surprised to find that our hotel had our room ready an hour early.

Look Closer at the Hilton Garden Inn, Waikiki

Why We Might Not Return: Hilton Garden Inn, Waikiki My dear polite travelers, Imagine waiting three years to revisit a pleasant memory. You’d probably be thrilled to be on that journey. Right? Well, I am, and ...well, I’m lukewarm to some aspects of it, especially our room: #1537. But the Ocean is Right There! In our room, #1537, we have the ocean view and the fresh breezes associated with it. Still, due to the central, otherwise excellent location, it’s noisy—very noisy. Thus, those breezes remain outside all night. Darn. The pleasant sweet-ocean-air-in-our-room-memory I dream of often eluded us on this trip. Now, it’s just sad. The Good & the Weird Beyond the noise, it is a comfortable room—especially the shower—but there’s not enough counter space. Instead of a long counter or desk, the hotel designer thought a long built-in seat would be a clever idea?? Hint. It’s not. We can only use it to store our suitcases and bulky items. The only place to us

Sonoma, California: DoubleTree Sonoma

Updated 4/2021 Our Stay in the DoubleTree Hilton Hotel Sonoma Wine Country in California As over-worked small business owners, we decided to play hooky traveling through Sonoma County for a couple of days. Since we recently experience excellent service on our last stay in a DoubleTree, we booked a room at their Sonoma Wine Country property in Rohnert Park. Our Journey Through Sonoma County Our drive from our home in Davis pleasant with light traffic. We chose a slightly longer route through Sonoma so we could take in the beauty of the Glen Ellen area vineyards. The vineyards here are quite beautiful with green rolling hills as a backdrop. Arriving at the DoubleTree As we arrived, I mentioned to my husband that since this trip would focus on cheese tasting, it would be perfect if we were given a free upgrade to a room with a refrigerator. The hotel appeared fully booked, so I assumed that was impossible. Astonishingly, when we asked about an upgrade, the polite rec
