The Comport Inn is situated close to the Mall, within walking distance and is clean and comfortable. I think the staff did an excellent job catering to our needs when thay are full of long time guests because of the flooding in the area. The staff still went out of their way to make us comfortable and to make us feel at home.
The Breakfast area is small but useful. If you get there early, there is no issue. Getting there around 8 means you will sit around the pool, which to me was quite refreshing. I went a second time with my Family and had coffee when they awoke.
Getting your shopping back to the Hotel is as easy as using a shopping cart and I made several trips for the girls.
Menards, my store, is a cab ride away or $6. Walmart is on the way, so you can spend time at either, but we had to make trips back to the Hotel to drop off our shopping.
To make a long story short, the people of Minot and all the Hotels are doing a great job of treating out of town guests the same as the residents who have suffered from the flooding tragedy. They are put up in all the Hotels, the Oil People and all the busses that come in for shopping and blended in to one as a Family. My hat goes off to the People of Minot and to all the Businesses that have gone the "Extra Mile," especially the Hotel/Motel Industry.

Spent weekend at this hotel. It has a great location within walking distance of the mall and numerous restaurants,
The hotel was very clean and staff very accomodating and friendly.
Continential breakfast was also excellent.
The only negative was the small pillows but put 2 in one pillowcase and this solved the problerm.
Would not hesitate to return to this hotel.

I spent the night here last night (October 26). There was no parking. I drove around the hotel and even sat and waited a while. When I went back inside they said it was because they have the majority of their rooms filled with people who are on vouchers until next year because they lost their homes in the flood. The folks who wrote that there is ample parking must mean the Applebees parking that as I look out my window now at 5 AM is fill with hotel patron's cars. There is a a shopping mall behind Applebees where some guest must park if they don't want to go ut after 10 when Applebees closes to move their car to that closer parking lot. Now the room...the carpets seriously need steam cleaning. They are filthy.Vacuuming doesn't do it any more. I was checking to make sure the connecting door was locked and the handle came off in my hand. The small sink drains so slowly, I had to keep waiting for the water to drain out before I could continue to use it. The walls are extremely thin and I could hear the full conversation of the lady in the room next to me plus the people above me sounded like they were stomping back and forth to the bathroom. I'm sure they weren't stomping but the soundproofing is so bad it almost amplfies the sound...........okay what was good.....the only thing I found good was that the front desk clerk who seemed to be in charge was trying her best to find parking to the extent that she went out to the end of Applebees parking lot and called back to the office on a walkie talking to tell the other clerk where she found a space fo me...The obviously do not pay her enough to handle all the complaints....I guess the other good thing is they have an indoor pool and spa that the residents seem to enjoy. If you are visiting friends or family in Minot, this may be okay if the pool is a big draw.....if you are on business...forget it...but also good luck finding a room in Minot. Most are taken up by families with long term vouchers and rooms booked up by the oil company...my advise...book far in advance with a more upgraded hotel. Also ...beware of glowing reviews as many are written by the hotels!

I stayed at the Comfort Inn in July 2011, during the height of the flooding of the Souris River. City water was not potable, but every day, bottled water was placed in my room for drinking. In spite of the hardship, the breakfast buffet was plentiful, the king bedroom was spacious, and the desk people were courteous and competent. Convenient to dining and shopping.
The price of the room was high (over $100 per night), but that's the law of supply and demand. Over all a good stay. I'd stay there again.
