We booked this room several months before the Berkshire Hathaway stockholders meeting, in early May in nearby Omaha. The best rate we could get was $189 a night plus tax, far above the rates mentioned by other reviewers and the web site. We booked it anyway, because rooms are hard to find for that weekend. The room was worth about... More

Thank you for your feedback and kind words about our staff. We appreciate your business and booking with us. Due to the busy nature of that weekend rates were higher, I apologize we did not provide you with the experience you expected while staying with us. I have addressed the pool and spa issues with our maintenance team and will... More

We stayed at the Fairfield Inn in Council Bluffs, Iowa for one evening. We stayed in a king suite which was plenty big. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The breakfast was fine. We did not use the pool. This hotel fit our needs for a one night stay.

The motel is very clean and has been recently updated. Our room was fine and the staff very helpful. We had a room on the 3rd floor and the trains were not bothersome. Cracker Barrel restaurant next door was very handy. We would stay here again.

I enjoyed my stay at this motel. Check in was quick and easy, my special request was honored, the room was very clean, like new. The area is quiet and within walking distance to Cracker Barrel (next door). There are several eating establishments nearby. The free breakfast was wonderful. I had no issues with anything at this motel during my... More

We were very happy with our stay here. Firstly we had great treatment by the staff, very friendly and helpful. Our room had a very long/large bathroom bench (which is unusual, as mostly there is only room for toothbrushes and that is all!!) so very happy about that, also we had a very comfy bed. only one criticism was that...

We just visited the Omaha-Council Bluffs area. We decided to stay in Iowa since the rate was cheaper. We stayed for $79.20/night. This was a senior rate. Nice flat screen TV but the remote seemed to stick. The toilet had to sometimes be flushed a second time. The breakfast was OK. The area for breakfast was very small considering there... More

We stayed her for a couple nights. Here is why I rated the hotel "Average." First of all, being a Marriott property, it was clean with fresh decor and a nice lobby/breakfast area. That alone makes it better than most other hotels. But compared to other Marriott/Fairfield's I've stayed at, this was below average. Another positive though was the location..... More

We stayed here one night while on the road - hadn't planned on it, but due to road flooding had to stop. The room was clean, basic and up-to-date. The beds were comfortable. Staff was helpful. Easy access off the interstate with a variety of family restaurants around (walking distance). Indoor pool that was extremely small.

We were traveling just before Christmas and stopped because of the ice/snow. It was late at night and we were able to get a good rate. Good breakfast with lots of choices.
