“Beds are a Killer”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

At once time, Fairfield Inn was the premier place to stay in Berea. Sadly it has fallen behind in customer service, room quality, and breakfast variety. It's time to update the beds! The last time I stayed there, the bed was nothing more than a dense foam type mattress on a bedspring. It had been slept in many times, and you would eventually roll into the creases of the previous clients. The furnishings need to be updated - it's time for HD widescreen in the rooms, for example. Also, during my last stay, the kitchen ran out of food for breakfast on a Sunday morning one hour before closing.....the response "they just didn't order any". I don't know whether Marriott is not paying as much quality control to the Fairfield brand, or whether this particular property is just ignoring comfort. I highly recommend the hotel next door, Comfort Inn and Suites...they are the real deal. I hope that Fairfield gets their act together, or perhaps, it's time for Marriott to review whether they are capable of keeping the entire brand afloat. Sad to see such an elegant place to stay continually slide into oblivion.

Room Tip: Ask for first floor singles....these appear to be the larger rooms.

“A Pretty Good Fairfield Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 November 2011

This inn was updated a couple years ago and is pretty nice. They didn't do a complete remodel, however, so it's half way between great and okay. The rooms are nice enough and very clean. They have more cleaning staff than most Faifields and I think it shows in the cleanliness and upkeep.

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is standard for a Fairfield, with the exception of a waffle maker. First Fairfield I've seen that didn't have one.

The towels are a bit on the thin side, but the sheets and the room were tip top.

I think this place has made a nice compromise between luxury and keeping the price reasonable. For my money, it's hard to beat the price. Right off I-75, but still plenty quiet for a great night's rest.

“Our needs were met with satisfaction”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

The room was clean, the hotel as well. This is a non-smoking hotel which made it awkward coming in the doors with all the smokers right next to them. The hotel offered a rate that made this stay worth the visit. I did not use the pool or eat breakfast. Plenty of towels and a friendly staff. Air conditioner had an air freshner which assisted in the way it smelled.

“Was a small room.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

The hotel was in town and a convenient location for Berea College visiting. We had traveled several Fairfield Inns as we traveled to Fl and back. This was our least favorite. Not that it was bad, but the others had remodeled to the hilt. This was an average, older looking facility, but they did serve the great breakfast we had expected.

“Love it! Excellent!!! Highly Recommend!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2011

I have stayed at the Fairfield Many times.
I am Very satisfied!!!
I love the Big Comfy bed and Especially all the wonderful Pillows they supply... seems like part of them are feather Pillows? and the other just regular pillows... I LOVE this!!!
I have stayed in Alot of Motels before and the Beds here are by far the Best!!!!

The rooms have always been so CLEAN! Love the big spacious Bathrooms!!!

Love the indoor pool as well... usually with indoor pools...it is so Stuffy and Hot inside...but this one was a Perfect Temperature...so we were able to enjoy our swim and the Hot Tub...without feeling smothered!

I'm not sure if it was the rooms or the time of year...but I do remember that when we stayed in the upper floor rooms they seemed to be alot "Cooler" than the downstairs room were...but this could possibly have had something to do with how Hot it was outside at the time, seeing as how the temperatures outside are horrid at times!

Overall I am Extremely pleased and will continue to stay there as my #1 choice in Berea!
