It was noisy. We could hear conversations to the room next to ours. There was also a lot of stumping or hard walking in the room above ours. The front desk staff were very polite however, housekeeping attempted to come clean our room 3 hours before check out.

Terrible experience

We were double charged at this Hotel. The night clerk said our card wasn’t processed when we checked in. So we paid twice. I addressed in the morning, and we were told they couldn’t do anything until the charges were not pending. I followed up in a few days and was assured it would be fixed. It was not. This is a kind of theft by deception. Additionally, there was mold in the Philly cheese at breakfast. The staff at breakfast was lovely though.

First time staying at Fairfield property. Had requested a crib for 7 week old grand child. This property didn’t have one. No bathtubs. Not best for traveling with children. Rooms felt a little damp. Good points were friendly staff & check in. Right off interstate. Nice & quiet comfortable rooms.
