This hotel is directly off the interestate among a "strip" of other hotels and requires a taxi or car to get around. However, even with a taxi (around $15 each way to downtown area), it was still much cheaper than staying downtown. There is a good - and inexpensive - Mexican restaurant with a patio just across the street. The... More

We stay the Fairfield whenever we come to Austin, as it's location is ideal for easy access to all areas of Austin. John, the manager, is a superb host, happily accommodating any request we have.

Three unfortunate things really clouded an otherwise satisfactory experience. First, the desk chair had been adjusted and never restored to a height where I could study at the desk. Secondly, I "fought" with the thermostat all night long. There was a delay built in so I never felt in control. I would turn it up and it would not respond,... More

We were there one night. Nothing sticks out good or bad. A little far from downtown.

Anytime I come to Austin, I stay here - The staff is excellent! They never let me down. Even though the hotel is a little older, the staff more than makes up for it in their quality of service.

Fairfield Inn is usually a known quantity: reliable, comfortable mid-level chain that delivers the assurances of the Marriott Brand. But the Fairfield Inn - University Area in Austin Texas falls way short. In addition to looking and feeling old and in need of an update, the hotel is also very small and located right next to the freeway. Although it... More

Not sure why our experience was so different from all the other reviews but we definitely were not happy with our experience. We chose this hotel because we've stayed at this chain in other cities on a couple of occasions and have been very pleased. The neighborhood is old and run down and there's a motel directly across the street... More

Best place to stay in Austin. If any one planning to get a Jacuzzi in room than definitely go here. We were really happy with our stay at Fairfeild Inn.

I visit a fair number of hotels for business, much of the time I have limited options for which hotels I stay in. Staying at this hotel was my choice - not a very good one as it turns out. While I can't say anything really bad about the property (other than the painfully small fitness facility), I can's say... More
