I wear an 8.5 and ordered an 8.5. They fit perfectly, with room for thin or medium-weight socks. (You might be able to pull off thicker socks if you loosen the laces, but don't quote me on that.) Can't speak much to the comfort because I haven't worn them for an extended period of time yet, but I didn't notice any pinching, tightness or "hot spots" walking around the house.

For about $20, the quality is as expected  they don't look like they were very expensive, but they weren't, so that's okay. They're still very cute and they do feel like they'll hold up for more than a season.
