Comfort Inn University
The back door electric lock has been broken for 3 weeks and didn't lock. According to the front desk clerk, the owners were too cost cutting to replace it which creates a security risk. Otherwise a nice clean place to stay.

Clean room. Did not appreciate having to go back out to my car in the cold to put a tag on my dashboard. Breakfast needs some work.
