We arrived around 10:20PM, property doors were closed. Staff was on the phone, she let us in, gestured us she was on phone, which is fine. Lobby was small, connected with breakfast area, where all the lights were off, and could not be turned on. She continued to be on an obvious inquiry call for another 4-5 minutes before she started check-in for us. The feeling was a bit off as I remembered all fairfield's properties were more welcoming and bright. We were let stay in a room with end table on one side, but not the other, no fridge. The only note indicating they are under renovation is a piece of paper in elevator. No heads up from front desk. Other than that, property was clean, breakfast was decent.
