Traveled with family and small children
It was a quick check in and the room was clean, but when you first walk in, the carpet had stains all over and there was something smeared on the floor that didn’t get cleaned up until morning. The pool was small, which is fine, but the water was so COLD! It was not enjoyable and you couldn’t stay in it for long because it was so cold! Breakfast was not good! They had a variety to offer, but were out of so many things. No syrup, pepper, or milk are a few. The excuse was that there was a large group that wiped them out the weekend before. The waffle batter ran out about 20 minutes before breakfast was done and she washed it and put it away instead of refilling. We had a long trip and stayed in many different places, and this breakfast time was by far the worst experience. I would not stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The facility was new and modern. Room was clean and spacious. The staff seemed to be a little hassled to have to work. I don’t want to have to ring a bell to get help because the staff is always missing from the desk. The accommodations were nice but I stayed at the hotel next door the following night and the “experience” part of it was so much better.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I checked into Fairfield Inn on Wednesday July, 2 2025 and was asked if l needed House Keeping during my stay and said l did. But l did not receive House Keeping service until Sunday July 6, 2025, after inquiring 2 previous times. Also the hotel AC unit in the lobby leaked my entire stay. I had to take my trash out my almost entire stay. Also the first floor Ice machine leaked half of my stay.

Another Great Stay!!

We had another amazing stay! We were welcomed back, with a hand written note, water and chocolates! How gracious! Once again, great service, the kitchen staff was very helpful, front desk services are wonderful! My favorite front desk worker, I believe her name is Shawna, had great recommendations and helped us get settled in our room quickly and efficiently. I will definitely be back again! My 84 y/o Mother loves this Hotel! Only recommendation would be to add grab bars in the showers, and maybe a non slip mat or paint or something to the shower floors.

Front desk staff was professional and friendly. Room was pristine. Only thing that was not cool was that the next morning I was awakened by kids in the hallway playing soccer. Thats right, 3 or 4 of them kicking the ball hitting against the wall, did not hit my room door but they were hollering hooting having a good ole time. Looked to be like 9 or 10 so lil dudes. I did not feel like getting irrate on some lil kids and it was already 830am and I said to myself any parent that allows their kids to play kick ball up and down the hallway inside a very nice hotel, I'm not getting involved in that crap! I took a shower and left earlier than I had planned, all good. Other than that it was a nice hotel and I would stay there again.
