We arrived at about 11 pm. Went to the first room and the tv didn’t work. We were moved promptly to a second room which was fine, this room had not been cleaned since the last guests. Unmade beds and dirty diapers. It smelled terrible. We were moved to room 3, it was 12 am at this point. All of these things were tolerable. Things happen. The issue here was we were told we would receive a discount at checkout for the inconvenience. Upon checkout I was told, we’re sorry, we can’t give you a discount now? That to me was the unacceptable part of the situation. The hotel overall was clean and nice.
Our room was great and clean. Breakfast was a little iffy. Food was not replaced once it ended and coffee was not as well. Other than that room was great and front desk check in was smooth.
I had a terrible experience, after 10 hours of driving I was really looking forward to a nice shower and rest with my disabled husband. However I got out of the shower to a gigantic cockroach on the wall. I alerted the front desk they didn’t seem too concerned, they didn’t have another room to put me in said they would leave a note for the morning manager. In the morning they said they never received a note but still didn’t seem concerned. I barely slept all night after having to move the dresser to kill it. I have a photo and identified it on google bug finder. I didn’t expect to have this for the price I paid for the room. Highly unsatisfied.

Night shift staff was amazing during checkin. Morning staff in breakfast area was on top of the food and it was a busy morning!
We were just driving home and needed a place to stop - so thankful we chose this Fairfield. The staff was super nice, we had a comfy bed, we got the rest we needed along with a yummy breakfast before we hit the road again.
Stay was VERY nice. Property was like new, very clean, employees were kind and helpful and we would definitely stay here again.
I was particularly thrilled that the breakfast included eggs, bacon, fruit, almond milk and prepackaged UDI’s GLUTEN FREE blueberry muffins in addition to oatmeal bagels etc etc.
overall great place for the price.
Stayed in the King Suite on the 4th Floor and was very nice and clean, having 2 55" TVs was also great to have so my wife and I could watch one asnd our kids had the other one. My wife and kids were hoping to use the pool, but front desk said it was closed temporarily due to inspections. Overall though, the stay and hospitality was to our satisfaction.
