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.

It was a nice place to stay a night as we traveled. The pool was too cold for the kids to swim. That was disappointing because they wanted to

Parking was a disaster. Due to the number of guests, we were relegated to the back side of the building which was nearly impassable. The parking lot was completely destroyed by construction equipment and vehicles. Luckily we travelled in my full size pickup and were able to traverse the deep holes and uneven parking surfaces. I felt sorry for others that also had to use the back lot.

Very Good but not Excellent!
We’ve traveled the world in the last 20-25 years.99 % of the time we used Hotels.com for the reservation. For the first time in our long travel history we did not get the room we reserved on the website. And when we travel with sassy, pretentious, easy irritated teens who want each a separate bed ….it’s a big problem. Once at the hotel we’ve been welcomed by a very polite front desk employee who unfortunately told us they did not have two double queen rooms anymore, as we had reserved . They offered us two rooms with one king bed and a very uncomfortable sofa bed. The fuse for disaster was lit. The room were spacious, clean and the beds were very comfortable, but unfortunately we had to use the sofa beds for calming the teen spirits and that sofa bed is an insult for the hospitality industry. As comfortable as the bed was, so bad was the sofa bed. The view from the window was also absolutely horrible (three major trash dumpsters) ….but overall was a decent experience. I am sure if they had respected the reservation with two queen bed , everything would have been perfect. Breakfast was very, very good. I don’t know who to blame, I don’t think it was Marriott’s fault I blame it 100% on the Hotels.com website and their terrible, terrible system and changes they recently implemented ….a total disaster. The investors in this company should be publicly shamed, they simply don’t care. They ruined a phenomenal travel website and app and now Hotels.com it’s a bad, bad, bad joke !!

The hotel was under renovation and it was very loud. The refrigerators should have a small freezer for convenience. Breakfast was good.

First, clerk did not know if they had a laundry. I said it’s on your website and was why we chose this place. She finds it but machine will not work. We are on roadtrip and this is night planned for this. She said we have to wait until manager comes in at 8:30. There is no way we can do laundry in the morning. We expect full refund.

We passed by for work and stayed 5days. The property is under construction. They started after 10am and the noise wasn't as bad. Due to this there is no pool or hot breakfast. They give you a bag filled with a fruit, breakfast sandwich to heat in your microwave, a muffin and granola bar. Not to bad but they don't tell you this at check in. So if you go and want a hot breakfast (like they advertise) don't go. Other then that the room was clean the staff were nice. Would stay again
