“Satisfied business traveler”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

I was booked to go to a two day seminar in Columbia, MD which is an area in which I am not familiar. The excutive admin for my office choose this hotel for the proximity (4 miles) to my seminar.

I arrived at about 8:30 pm on a cold and rainy Monday evening and was happy to find parking near the front door after an especially challenging road trip in the rain/fog. The gentleman at the front desk was pleasant and the registration process was very quick which was appreciated to this weary traveller.

My room was on the 3rd of 4 floors and was just around the corner from the elevators. I was slightly concerned that it might be noisy but am happy to report that my room was very quiet. This was again proven when I looked out my window and noticed that highway was just beyond (and down a small hill) from the parking lot. As I looked at the traffic going by I can honestly say I didn't hear a thing.

The room was a suite that was well appointed with a nice desk and free wi-fi. There were two televisions in the suite, one in the living room area and one in the bedroom. While I didn't use them much in my two night stay they both appeared to be in good working order with a good choice of local and cable stations. The king size bed was very comfortable and had 6 pillows. The room included a small refrigerator and microwave along with small coffee maker. All appeared to be in good working order. The shower pressure was great which is usually a pet peeve and was quite pleased here.

I found a large variety of places to eat for lunch and dinner nearby via my GPS. A free continental breakfast was available each morning. I also found that there was a free gym, indoor pool and hot tub available. Had I known about these ammenities in advance, I think that I would have taken advantage. Although I didn't use them, they all appeared to be clean and properly cared for.

Based on my short stay at this hotel, I would absolutely look at other Comfort Suites. On a scale of 1-5, I would give this a solid 4.

“Great Value for Price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012

This hotel is out of the way, but it is worth the money. It was very quiet. The staff was very helpful and extremely nice.They have an indoor pool that is open until 10pm. They serve free breakfast in the morning. There was a waffle station and they had eggs, turkey bacon an assortment of danishes, muffins and bagels, cereal and juice, coffee ect. The rooms was very clean and spacious but the decor was a bit dated. Overall if you are looking for something in a budget price range this is the choice.

“Sorry I didn't choose another hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

When I booked via priceline it looked a lot closer on the map to where I hoped it was. Thank God for my GPS. The outside looked nice enough and the lobby was festive with halloween decorations. The rooms are dated and need upgrade. Old fashioned TV's that you have to sit on yucky looking sofas to be close enough to see. I prefer to lay in bed and watch TV but just too far away. The hot tub I could not get to work then I got nervous and didn't go in when the water had a blue tint and film. Chemicals, perhaps, but left it alone. The bed itself not TOO bad but the sheets are like sandpaper. Hope I don't wake up sick with a sore throat or a stye. I wish I could get my money back cause I would leave now and go elsewhere!!

“Great value for the money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

This hotel is a little difficult to find, but is worth it for the savings compared to other hotels in the Columbia area. You actually get a suite (sitting room, bedroom and huge bath) for your money. Everything was new and fresh. Very quiet hotel, away from any noisy roads. Good hot breakfast in the morning and free Wall Street Journals. My only complaint was that the pillows were very hard.

“Good place to stay in this area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2011

We stay here regularly when we visit this area. It's not a slick hotel, it's a place to stay when you're in the area to do something else. You're certainly NOT going to go to Elkridge, MD just to stay here. It's clean, neat, fairly new, but starting to show signs of wear and tear. Nice, friendly people looking to please and a typical Comfort Suites breakfast.. Call them when you're close or mapquest it before you go because although the hotel is visible from a very large intersection, you've got to go around thru some residential back streets to get to it. Big indoor pool. I don't know why they need it, but they've got it.

Room Tip: Elevators 'ding' loudly. Ask for a room away from the elevators.
