Which of these do you think would be the best hotel?

I don't travel much, but i am heading down to visit colleges tonight so i need to stay somewhere, if anyone has had experiences with any of these hotels and could give me a top 2 or 3 out of them, and maybe ones to avoid i would appreciate it. Any other info is appreciated, if you thought the price was fair, clean rooms, nice staff, etc.

Thanks so much!

I have stayed at Fairfield Inn by Marriott, Comfort Inn, Day's Inn, Super 8 Motel, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn Express, and Best Western. They are all fine, and I would choose whichever one is offering the best rate for what you need. If you are interested also check which ones are offering full breakfast as part of the package (often that would be Marriott and Holiday Inn), because that might make those ones a better deal. I never consider free continental breakfast in the calculations, as those breakfasts often leave a little to be desired.
