Comfort Inn Duncansville - Altoona

Staff at the desk and location

Cost

Hot tub did not work and the pool area was out of towels. Only 2 towels for the shower. Clean but a little “damp/musty” smell when first entering room. However staff was very nice and it was quite clean. Needs updated, painted, but still clean and good for an overnight stay.

The room key card was not programmed immediately, causing a few minutes delay in entering the room.

Very friendly staff

Mold in Tub

The location was clean and looked nice, pool was nice.

I had to change rooms because the door wouldn’t close and the staff was friendly about it but when I was checking out they said they couldn’t give me any kind of discount or points. It was inconvenient repacking and then being away from my family in a different room. I also went from a king to two queens which wasn’t what I had asked but it wasn’t the staff’s fault, I just wish I had been compensated in some way for the inconvenience. The hotel is expensive for the location. I live in a big city out west and it was the same price as our hotels.

Being born and raised in Altoona, this is the place we always stay when we come home for family reunions, funerals, weddings, etc. We have noticed the property seems to be wearing down. I was surprised to see the black mold in our shower and the air conditioner is super loud and made a rumbling noise all night. Other than that, most of the staff is friendly and we’ll keep on staying here because it feels like our Altoona home when we visit.

We've stayed at this location before and in the past it has been great for our needs, but this time we were disappointed. When we got in the room there was a terrible odor--not sure if it was the carpet or AC, but it was very overpowering. I went and bought an odor eliminator spray to help with the smell but it didn't do much. Our bathroom shower/tub was not cleaned and the bathroom floor was also sticky. We had planned to spend time at the pool with our kids and stay at the hotel some, but just didn't feel comfortable and decided to spend our time elsewhere. I would have cancelled altogether and went elsewhere but I couldn't find other availability in the area we were visiting. On a positive note, the ladies running breakfast kept everything well-stocked and fresh and that was very much appreciated.

Great place again. Only problem was the bathtub was slick as ice. I am 70 years old and it scared me to death. I don’t need another broken hip! Please put some non-skid strips in the bathtub.
