We had an early morning flight so chose this hotel due to its location next to the airport. Great hotel, very nice, modern, clean. Room was a little small but other than that perfect. Very nicely decorated, my wife loved it. Excellently designed bathroom. Will stay again.

I stayed at this hotel on a recent weekend. Rooms were what you would expect for a Fairfield. Customer service was good for being understaffed. Breakfast was the usual cereal/yogurt/waffles/muffins (I wish hotels would do away with those low-grade sticky muffins and replace them with donuts. I also wish hotels would not have those packaged bagels. But I guess I... More

On arrival at the airport we called the hotel and the shuttle bus picked us up within five minutes. We had arrived early (11am) but the front desk were happy to check us in. We received a drinks voucher for Johnnies next door which was a nice bonus. Hotel was clean, rooms were comfortable and the staff were very pleasant.... More

Stayed at this hotel in March 2013, Heater in room barely kept up with the cold temperatures outside. The electric outlets in the lamp on the desk did not function, making it difficult to charge table and phone. Bed was adequate, hotel staff were very good. Shuttle service to and from the airport was very quick and efficient.

This was a perfectly nice hotel. Very clean and well kept. There is no restaurant on site, but they do have an impressive complimentary breakfast (waffles, bagels, fruit, yogurt, cereal, breakfast sandwiches, english muffins, fruit cups, and a few more odds and ends). The workout room is nice (two treadmills, two ellipticals, and some free weights) and the pool is... More

No Restaurant on site - Johnnies is next door at the Hilton and not very good. Bed was on the rock hard side and the linens and towels almost thread bear. Convenient to the airport is the best feature of this hotel

Let me start off by saying I owe this review to the Fairfield because of the dread I'm staying at tonight across town. Initially I thought this was an average hotel for a mid size city but compared to the Holiday Inn express at Drake university it looks and feels like the Ritz. Believe me, it isn't the Ritz by...

Mostly clean, mostly quiet, just an average hotel. Walls are a little thin, so be wary if you have a room near the elevator. The room was very stuffy when I got in, I guess the AC goes off if you leave. Good for energy saving, but it took a few minutes to make the room bearable (and this was... More

This was our first stay at a Fairfield Inn & Suites, and we were very pleased. The room, though small, was extremely clean and nicely decorated. The king bed was SO comfortable with crisp, clean bedding and lots of fluffy pillows. Another thing I liked is that the comforter/bedspread was not too thick and heavy as in some hotels. We... More
