The first thing we noticed when entering the room was a very loud knocking noise. It turned out to be the refridgerator. There is no way we could live with that noice so we had to unplug the unit. Then I turned on the A/C. It immediately sounded like a plane taking off. I let it run for about 30... More

I am really impressed by this place! I was told that it was really dirty and the area was all "hood". That there was crackheads and it was just completely disgusting. Also, people said that they should lower their prices? Why? You get a pool (outdoor) a very nice full breakfast, a clean comfortable room (really nice beds), The workout... More

We discovered the Comfort Inn in Portsmouth Olde Town after a long day on the road, having driven up from South Carolina. We didn't have a booking, and the main thing we were looking for was a room on the south side of the Chesapeake Bay bridge / tunnel. The lady on the front desk was so helpful, and so... More

I had to make a late reservation (3 days) due to a change in plans, but I received a good rate for just the type of stay I was looking for. This hotel stay for me was all about a clean, quiet, comfortable room/bed with a clean, hot shower. When I'm traveling, that's really all I care about. If I... More

Although this is a new hotel it has a homestyle charm about it. The management team and staff members are top notch and spare no time in making a stay here very nice.

I had business in Portsmouth so my husband and son tagged along to travel through Hampton Roads. The Comfort Inn provided a good location for all of us. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff was more than accomodating - since there were only double beds, not queens, we asked for a roll away bed that was surprisingly comfortable.... More

The front desk manager accommodated our group with room upgrades as they became available. All maintenance issues were resolved quickly, and the housekeeping staff accommodated our late room cleanings. There are other nicer hotels across the tunnel, but for our purposes, we appreciated the nice environment and friendly staff. Bring a flash drive; there is no printer connection to the... More

I was up most of the night itching and scratching! In the morning, I checked out a day early. I chose not to eat their continental breakfast due to cleanliness! I spoke with the desk clerk, the manager and then I filed a formal complaint with the company. This hotel seems to be under the impression it was "my fault"... More
