Alvarado Hotels with Pools

I come down to Texas every year for the Texas State Fair. Unfortunately, the Fair was cancelled this year, but by gollies, I was gonna get my vacation by hook or by crook! I came down and spent 5 nights in the hotel. I have a few friends and relatives in the area, so I visited with them briefly, properly socially distanced and masked, of course! However, I spent most of my time in and around the hotel. It's at the intersection of two major highways ( Highway 35W and Highway 67), so there is a certain amount of noise, but the rooms are quiet, all things considered. I didn't expect much of a breakfast with the COVID pandemic, but they actually had a relatively good variety of wrapped items, so people could put together a pretty good breakfast if they so chose. I brought some of my own food, and just supplemented from the breakfast choices they had. In normal times I eat more from the breakfast buffet. I think they're doing their best in these extraordinary circumstances. The staff is friendly and helpful. I especially enjoyed visited with ReAnna. She is awesome! We had a couple of lovely chats. All of the employees were kind and nice. I had a good time sitting and reading, walking in a nearby neighborhood, and just chilling! If you come to visit Southwestern Adventist University (just down the road) or friends or relatives south of the Metroplex, or even the Dallas/Fort Worth area itself, this is a lovely place to stay. I would recommend it! One fun highlight that I had never noticed before was a tree in front of the hotel that seems to house about 20 to 30 birds (sparrows?) roosting in it every night, at least at this time of year. I enjoyed watching them hop around in the branches and sing their little songs. Once again, maybe this only happens during certain seasons, but if you enjoy birds, you might like checking out that tree! Who knew there was a Bird Hotel right next to the Comfort Inn?! Also, if you want to stay in the area to eat, I enjoyed the Daily Special Cafe in the little shopping center across the I-35 access road from the hotel. It's near the Berkshire's grocery store. If you like down-home country cooking, it's a nice place to eat. I went at mid-afternoon and was almost the only person there, and the entire staff chatted with me (from a distance) as I ate. I enjoyed it thoroughly!
