Smaller and older than other Fairfield Inn's we've stayed in. A little hard to find and get to because it's tucked in back from the highway.

I received extra charges for incidentals. I didn’t purchase anything or use any services. Showered and slept there, only! Also, I requested to replace used towels and didn’t receive any. Had to go to the front desk to get them replaced. Room next door had a huge hole through the door! Room 228

It’s a nice new hotel. Right across the street from Wal-mart but doesn’t feel like it. It’s clean, new and close to OU. We booked another night a few months away while we were there!
