Two-pearl Comfort Inn Traverse City is a pleasant, small hotel that's a short walk from the lakefront and a five-minute drive to downtown Traverse City. Welcome freebies include a shuttle bus that heads downtown and to the airport, and a buffet breakfast with hot and cold items. The 62 rooms come in a variety of configurations, but are a bit tired -- some have kitchens or extra beds, while others have in-room jetted tubs. Despite its budget status, there's a decent selection of amenities here, including an indoor pool with a whirlpool, a fitness room, game room, and coin-operated laundry facilities. Travelers willing to push the budget a bit could look at Cherry Tree Inn & Suites instead, which is right on the waterfront and adds an outdoor pool.
