I was up to Mt. Vernon Ohio for my class reunion from may 23 2013 to may 27th 2013 And the staff was great welcome me at the door asking me how my trip was and helped me with my bags without asking. Check-in was easy and took less then a minute. The room was clean and has space. The... More

The rooms were average at best. We stayed in a king non-smoking room and I must say that the Holiday Inn Express is a much better value. There aren't enough options in Mount Vernon and when the Holiday Inn Express was booked, we stayed here. Never again. The office staff was very friendly but she couldn't even supply us with... More

The hotel was okay. The rooms were average and pretty clean. The pool area was nice except there were tons of kids so very noisy. I was told the pool water was pretty cold and the hot tub was very small. Also, there was an annoying issue with one of the lights turning on/off but I am sure that can... More

We've stayed at several hotels while visiting nearby Kenyon College, and this one is not a bad option. The room was reasonably clean, though terribly dated in decor. Someone must have been keeping up with the housekeeping for the carpeting/bedding to have lasted so long! The larger sized in-room fridge/freezer is a nice bonus. My biggest complaint is that the...

Clean, nice rooms, desk staff "OK", about $35-$50 higher than comparable motels. While nice, I do not find it worth the extra cost. I would prefer to feel satisfied, rather than feel that I had been taken advantage of. Sorry.

Really more like 3.5 stars . . Located close to Kenyon College in nearby Gambier, this Comfort Inn has very friendly and helpful staff. The two-queen bed room is a nice size, with a small fridge and microwave and the sink outside the bathroom. This design decision offers advantages to some travelers but does impinge on closet space and makes... More

While the bedding still uses quilted comforters, it was clean and allowed for a good night sleep. The hotel had free WiFi and a reasonable business use area. The breakfast was quite good with warmed, prepared foods in addition to the more routine coffee, juice, and dairy and baked goods. Definitely recommend it if staying in town.

We were in town for the IndyCar races. This was a great location. The town of Mt. Vernon is a quaint (up and coming) town with real character. We got there on a Friday night and the Front Desk employee was really nice & told us of events in town. We had dinner at the restaurant behind the hotel...definitely recommend... More

Rooms were clean and neat. BUT when we tried to log into the wireless, we could not connect because we were at the far end from the lobby. We changed rooms with no hassle, but then the chain smokers smelly cigarette smoke was pulled into our room by the wall air conditioner. :-( Again I had to call the desk... More
