The new hotel features several complimentary amenities, such as Wi-Fi, a hearty and healthy hot breakfast with the brand's signature waffles, airport transportation, meeting space, and a fitness center.

"With nearly 40 years of leadership and expertise in the upper-midscale segment, the Comfort brand continues to serve the needs of guests and franchisees in key markets," said Brian Quinn, vice president, head of development, new construction brands, Choice Hotels.

Our pipeline is nearly 300 properties strong, 80-percent of which are new construction, as the brand expands in cities where owners want to build and guests want to stay."
