Easy check in. The rooms we stayed in were nicely cleaned and the floor was quiet. This is the nicest hotel in the area. I enjoy staying here every time I come back to visit. The only issue sometimes it can be difficult to find staff at the front desk and they aren’t always present.

We enjoyed our stay at Marriott Fairfield Inn & Suites in Clear Lake, IA! Hotel had “new appearance” & check in process was smooth even though we added 2nd night’s stay. The thing that we didn’t enjoy was the complimentary breakfast, fruit should be replaced more often, minor issue but heard others express the same sentiments. Overall, stay was was nice & would recommend to family and friends! Thank you! 😊

It was good. Breakfast is great. We've stayed there the last 2 trips for a car show and there's ample parking for our trucks and trailers.

Very comfortable stay! It was very easy to get there from the interstate and the beds were comfy. The continental breakfast was delicious and there were lots of options! Our only concern was regarding overall cleanliness. The pool area was not very clean and there were a lot of ants near the windows. There also was some food left in our fridge from the previous stay. We would definitely stay again!

Lovely & spacious property with beautifully decorated rooms. I enjoyed the pool and saw how nice the fitness room was. The breakfast was nice, as expected and the property overall is clean with friendly staff. Specifically speaking about the room, while well appointed, the toilet wasn’t cleaned properly and that is my wonky complaint.
