I booked 2 nights to attend my grandaughters graduation from notre dame. My grandson who was coming from connecticut to chicago was meeting me to drive me from chicago to south bend as i was coming from buffalo. His flight was cancelled due to the tornados last minute and as a result i had to cancel mine. I immediately reported it to hotel but they already charged me for both nights even though the policy said if you dont show up you forfeit one night. Ive called twice but they tell me its up to management but they never get back to me. Im out 572 dollars.

The employees were very helpful and friendly. My understanding is the hotel has been sold- I hope that is true because currently this place is a dump. Rooms needed cleaned, the mattresses were stained, the furniture in our room was terribly stained and worn. I understand that South Bend is a college town where very popular football games are held. I imagine the guests can be quite rowdy. The owners would not want to fill the rooms with priceless antiques and valuable furnishings, however there is no excuse for soiled mattresses and dirty drapes on the windows. We were very disappointed-esp. since I passed up other cheaper hotels to stay at Comfort Suites University Area Notre Dame - South Bend. I hope the new owners are reading this. Please keep the current employees when you take over ownership. They are the only positive this sorry place has going for it.

Bed was broken, no linens in room for pull out sofa, electrical plugs didn’t work, breakfast was horrible. Visited during Notre Dame graduation weekend and hotel decided it was a great time to paint all the hotel room doors and halls. Overall a horrible experience.

The mattress was the worst one I ever slept on. Totally worn down, especially on the edge. I had to sleep on the lump so I didn't feel like I would roll out of the bed. The TV was poor picture quality and every time we turned it on, it went through an auto programming mode first before we could watch anything. To close the bathroom door, you had to push it hard with two hands. There was broken hardware for some fixtures in the bathroom and chips in the bathroom walls. We had a room that faced the parking lot & in front of our window was two hotel spotlights which wouldn't have been an issue except that the longer, darker curtains covered only the edge of the windows so I had to use a clip to pull the curtains together on the bottom to block out some of the light. I mentioned the issue of the mattress & bathroom door to the manager-on-duty the next morning and she said just about everything was going to be renovated soon. That didn't make me feel any better and won't help the next person who gets booked into that room.

Would Stay Again

We came here for my daughters 6th birthday. Pool was clean, but the surrounding pool area was not so clean. Wet towels were laying everywhere with no one in site. There were no clean/dry towels to use. We had to go back up and get room towels. Room was clean, but the bathtub was full of water when we arrived. Hallway smelled like cat urine. Breakfast was good, and the area was very clean! We were informed the property is under new management and he has a huge undertaking. Overall, we would stay again! Loved the close access to everything, check in/check out was quick and friendly.
