Comfort Inn & Suites Weston - Wausau

10/10 Excellent
"The young man at the front desk was incredibly helpful!!! He helped us with a map to find our way to dinner the first night and the second night helped us with our TV which we couldn't get to work. The hot tub and pool were in good working order and the hot tub was nicely hot! The sheets on the bed were extremely good quality and the pillows and it made for a good night sleep. The hallways and the lobby were nicely clean and products for the guests were well stocked. The only thing I would change is the outdoor space when you come out the side door has cigarette buds all over and the grassy area is unkept and makes the hotel seem unkept."

"I’ve stayed at this location twice and had all good experience all around. The inside is outdated but stays and smells clean constantly. The staff is very friendly. I can’t remember which room I stayed in exactly but I had a king size bed and a pullout couch. Two separate rooms living area had an AC but the king bedroom did not so it was a little stuffy. So I would highly recommend if they would put AC in each room, but other than that, it was comfortable."
