My experiences at the Comfort Inn have always been great. The staff is always very friendly and accommodating. Their continental breakfast is very good and... More

They allowed us to stay 4 hours past check-out to rest up without an added charge. The room was clean and decent size. They were doing some improvements on the rooms. Warm,... More

I am very sorry that your room was not properly cleaned, what you described is not our normal standard and I apologize that your stay was not what you expected. Our 'Cafe' does have a limited menu to keep cost and prices down but we will certainly look at the possibility of additional healthy selections. We will be opening a... More

Had a great time, hotel was very clean, staff was friendly, loved the shuttle to the metro and the breakfast, room was a very nice suite which was worth the higher rate. The only negative was the pool was not open yet although it looked good.

Hotel was excellent, well positioned for metro.! Staff were very polite and the shuttle to the metro was a very good service. We all enjoyed the breakfast. Thanks for a 'comfort ' stay! If we come to DC we will certainly use the hotel again.

The hotel was very good for the price charged, less than U$130 for three adults, including a good breakfast, room was clean and comfortable. Staff was competent and helpful when giving direction to have dinner. I think its a good option to stay when visiting Washington DC.
