They made me pay twice for parking!!! I told them I had opted to pay $12 more on Expedia to get PARKING INCLUDED (my reservation plainly states "free parking" but the clerk said "oh Expedia does that; we don't honor that" !!!!!!! The hotel shouldn't have charged me extra for parking. It's not set in stone, they have that option. I'm still fuming about this! I had to pay an extra $10 at check-in; it's not the amount of money. It's that Fairfield Inn knew I was paying TWICE for the parking, and they didn't care enough to make sure their customer was treated right. I will probably never go back there.

Comfortable stay and the staff was helpful and polite. The elevator seems really old and operates super slowly. You can tell the building might be an older one, but it's at least kept nicely and the rooms were clean.

We were put in room 212. It was very clean, beds were extremely comfortable as were the pillows, perfect amount of coverings. Highest praise for comfort. I was told this was a trial room. 1. Shower doors did not stay closed. They both slid to open position. 2. There was no shelf for putting your own hair products on. 3. There was no shampoo, conditioner or soap containers or dispensers for the shower. Management was very kind and listened to above opportunities for improvement.

I don't know if the hotel was having a bad weekend or if its always like this but our stay was disappointing. The hotel wifi wasnt working so I went down to ask about it, the hotel staff let me know the wifi was out for the building which is not the biggest deal. The women working the front desk gave me a paper with phone numbers to call to troubleshoot the wifi (why am i troubleshooting the hotels wifi? lol). The elevator needs repair asap. It is super slow and the door takes forever to close. Our room smelled like it wasnt cleaned thoroughly. The bathroom hadnt been swept correctly and towels didnt smell clean. We stayed 3 nights and they only came and cleaned the room once. I noticed half the 2nd floor rooms hadnt been cleaned either. I know things happen but the staff made zero attempts to notfiy people of what was going on. We used to pool area for a bit but the pool and sauna were dirty. We just ended up lounging in the sun. Overall im disappointed with how expensive our stay was vs what we actually experienced.
