Well kept hotel with an indoor pool and hot tub. Terrace where you can eat breakfast outside and get your morning sun. The staff was helpful when I left something of value behind. They retrieved it from the room immediately. Great breakfast with gluten free muffins and great coffee. Rooms need better lighting in the bathroom. Difficult to put makeup on in the light provided. Every hotel fails on this point. They don't consider women in the design. If housekeeping isn't going to come in every day they need to leave enough makeup remover wipes to cover the whole stay. I don't like the no housekeeping approach.

The hotel itself was fine. The lobby and breakfast area was clean and comfortable. The pool was stifling hot and humid though. Breakfast was good and a lot of healthy choices compared to other places we stayed. Our room was a standard king and again, compared to other places we’ve stayed, it was small and compact but it was clean. Our room heater was very, very noisy! The daytime staff were friendly but the nighttime staff person was not very friendly. She was efficient and kept things running smoothly, but it would have been nice to feel welcomed and be greeted with a smile and a hello. Despite the issues listed, we’d probably stay there again if the price was good.

HOT TUB OUT OF ORDER
We wanted a hotel with a hot tub and a pool, guess what? The hot tub was OUT OF ORDER! I guess you need to call the location to verify if all of the amenities that you are paying for are in working order. This was not-big disappointment. It was clean. We asked for a top floor room and that was honored, We were able to check in at 2:25 pm which said it was 3 pm or later check in. It was a good location since we stayed to go to the Paramount Theater that Saturday night. It was relatively quiet and rooms were very nice.

Midget room
The one complaint we have, is the room was not much larger than a closet. The room was located next to the linen room and is made for 1 person at most. Since we were paying the same as those in normal sized rooms, we feel we got short changed.

All was generally OK and Melinda was excellent.
Hotel is nicely maintained and set up with conveniences. No room cleaning was offered or happened although we were able to ask for and receive towels, toilet paper and tissues during our 4 night stay. Melinda at front desk went out of her way to be helpful in helping me sort out how to get name changed on my Marriott account (after 8 year deceased husband name remained.)

Overall, enjoyed my stay at this establishment. Check in was a little rough as my flight didn’t get in until late and the check in attendant was very new on the job. However, all staff were very pleasant and the room was very nice with fridge, coffee maker and microwave. My only disappointment was the lack of a waffle maker at the breakfast buffet. Eggs were nice but I was on vacation and wanted something sweet to indulge in.

Although not bad, just not up to the standard of Fairfield Inn most Fairfield Inn have a mini Keurig in the room. (which is why when we travel we bring extra K cups, so that we can have coffee in our room with no issues and having traveled much at many Fairfield. That’s always been the case )These did not, they did, however, have the older drip version of a coffee maker, but then you need the coffee packs. also the lighting was extremely dark in the room just two lights by the bed. Definitely, reading was not an option. The staff was friendly and so there were no issues there.

The hotel was located in a very convenient area and stands out in a good way compared to other properties in the area. The continental breakfast was better than expected. We did have to ask for items for the bathroom a few days into our stay but the desk was accommodating when prompted.

We had stayed at this location recently, so we knew what to expect as far as accommodation, food, and the staff.

I loved the location from the airport. Very easy to navigate. Very very nice. Front desk lady that is going to college should run your Hotel if she doesn't already. The best front person I have met for a long time. We were there for my Granddaughter's college interview. She made me feel so comfortable talking with her about the interview. She was so hospitable to all that checked in. The property is beautifully maintained. If things go well and she gets the scholarship, I will be back! (Probably every month!)
