Room carpet is old but hotel is very clean so don’t care. Hotel is nicely maintained. AC works well. Breakfast was great and staff personally got my daughter hard boiled eggs after breakfast was closing. We appreciated getting a noon check out as we got in late. I like Marriott hotels but some Fairfield hotels are not up to good standards. Have had problems at Holiday Inn Express hotels in the past but this hotel has changed my opinion. Now if reviews are positive I will consider them.
