If you're looking for an economical, off the strip location, the Fairfield is a reasonable choice. It is in need of renovations, which are scheduled for completion in 2012. The staff are always helpful and professional. They do provide shuttle service to the Strip.

Stayed here for two nights in January 2011. A little overpriced for what you get. Rooms and hall are "dark" Towels are just dingy! Breakfast was sad even by the Fairfield standard. Needs an overall update and freshening up!

Treadmills were "buy the cheapest we can find" and don't maintain them. So fair warning if you want to work out.

Shuttle driver from airport was friendly and since I didn't have a car for the first night it was nice that there were places to eat within walking distance.

We paid $109 a night for this. For my last night I moved to Planet Hollywood for $55. Better bed, better room MUCH better bathroom. Hard to justify twice as much just to park near the door!

As a person who stays at Marriott properties more than 50 nights a year, I can say this is the worst property I have stayed at. It was not clean, the coffee service was broken, the carpet was fraying, the paint was patched with unmatching paint... But the worst was there were soiled towels on the towel rack.

Spent 1 night here while traveling through with the purpose of seeing a Cirque show. I stay regularly at Marriotts, and have stayed at 3 other Marriott properties in Vegas, though this was my first time at a Fairfield.

Positives: Rooms are very clean and quiet. No surprises there. Beds were comfortable. Free shuttle to several locations on the strip was convenient. Close to Strip, but away from the craziness and noise. MOST of the staff (note exception below) was very friendly and helpful. Close to lots of dining options if you want to eat at a regular restaurant and not deal with insanity of the strip. Internet speed on guest computers is actually fast, which is often a rarity at hotels.

Negatives: One employee (David) lacks customer service skills. His answers are often "no" or just very curt, with no explanations. Completely unwilling to help. Sign at breakfast station says soy milk is available on request, but they were out. My big pet peeve - no hot tub. No hot tub at a Marriott hotel? HUH? Shuttle service ends at midnight. If they told us that we forgot. Would be nice if it went even 1 hour later.

If you are familiar with Marriott hotels, you shouldn't experience much in the way of surprises. I would stay again.
