Property was perfect. Clean and the rooms looked new. The breakfast was very nice. They had bacon, sausage, and little egg quiche cups as well as pancakes. One of the best hotels we stayed at for the price.

We stayed 5 nights at this location. We had no issues. I highly recommend Fairfield to anyone looking for a clean, well maintained hotel in great locations. This is our 3rd stay at Fairfield in the last year, and we search for these hotels specifically. If I had one thing, and this is truly not anything horrible, I'd love for all of the hotels to have the pancake flippers because those are amazing! Overall, a wonderful establishment!

The staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive. The room was quite clean and contained all necessary items. Two TVs. Two remotes. AC and heat functioned well. The breakfast was served in the lobby. A wide variety of food selections were available, from yogurts and eggs to toast, muffins, cereal and fruit. Sleep quality was restful and relaxed.

I stayed 2 nights and I loved it here. The location was convenient, and the hotel was beautiful, clean, and quiet. I was impressed with the breakfast: there were some good protein options and the coffee was good. A couple of things that would make it even better: a filtered water station where you can refill your water bottles, and some unsweetened yogurt options at breakfast.

I had a handicap room reserved because I was traveling with my mom. The room was NOT handicap friendly - I was expecting a tub (due to pictures of tub on webpage), the shower doors were VERY heavy and there were NO support bars in shower or a shower seat so she could be more stable. On a better note, the staff was great and the housekeeping staff were exceptional. It would have been great if the pool area also had a hot tub where you could soak achy joints after activities.

Breakfast was really good. Rooms were modern and clean but hotel was clearly short staffed. No one was at front desk at check in and no one answered the phone do we left and tried to sign in later. Very short staffed for cleaning as well. We were there 6 nights and the hotel was good, with good facilities but I cannot give it a higher rating due to these issues.

Whoever said the breakfast was great... lied. The breakfast was ok. The hotel says it offers continental breakfast, which usually doesn't include scrambled eggs and meat, but this hotel did (to our surprise)... but the eggs didn't taste good & they were watery. Our first room had a gnat issue, which Chris assisted us with finding a new room to stay in! The pool is rather small, but it's indoors, so that's a plus. The beds weren't comfortable, only one ice machine worked, but the staff (except the manger Sarah), were friendly & helpful! Would I stay here again... no.

The room is great very comfortable house keeping every other day to refresh which is great. Breakfast is great. Some great breakfasts option I like how the fruit out every am as options. the only down side if you using the hot water make sure there no coffee grounds but other than everything is perfect . My recommendation is put hot coco out for kids so they don’t have drink tea
