The staff were very attentive and helpful. Shuttle service is great. I could walk from the hotel to a town (one mile) with loads of restaurants and other interesting shops. Little stores were about 4 blocks away. The beds were great. The shower weak. The place is very clean and well taken care of. The breakfast (included) is great on Sunday and decent on other days (better than any in the States). Staff is wonderful.

This is the fourth time staying at the Fairfield and it never disappoints. Customer service is top rated - Joshua went out of his way to accommodate my early arrival. The building is new, shuttle is always on time (every 30mins) and the breakfast provides a lot of options. I use to stay at the Hampton Inn - its now getting dated/expensive and breakfast is not as good as before. I am glad I found a new place to stay which is also within walking to shopping.

I liked the location, friendliness of staff and presence of walkable dining options. Also good treadmills in gym, usefuĺ after sitting so long during travels. Free shuttle to and from airport is a great perk.

Sheets and pillows smelled like cigarettes!

My room smelled like cigarette smoke - which I am mildly allergic to. At first I thought it was second hand smoke - but during the night my throat throughly closed up due to the smell - which was both in the air and in the sheets/pillows. I did not sleep much but it seemed not worth the effort to move since we arrived after 11:30pm. Next time I would complain as my throat is still sore and tastes like cigarettes. Could have been from the laundry who washed them or housekeeper as I thought was a non-smoking hotel. Otherwise, everything else was fine - but cigarette smoke ruined the visit for me.
