We rolled into the humorously-named Effingham late one night on our cross-country trip, and picked the Fairfield basically because of its proximity to the highway and new-ish look. What we found was a hotel with very comfortable rooms, staffed by very friendly people, at an entirely reasonable rate.

Frankly we were suspicious for a while of all this quality (we had so many bad experiences on the road), but in the end it proved to be exactly what it seemed: a very good hotel at a very good price.

As a bonus, the continental breakfast selection was better than almost any I've seen; it even had this cool waffle-making machine that I avoided because I have a tendency to break anything I touch (but the kids had no problem operating it).

We stayed one night at this one month old hotel. All the things expected in a new hotel were there.......clean room; clean sheets & pillows (4 on each queen bed!); internet connection in the room; small frig; microwave. We couldn't hear a sound from outside, next to us or above us. The beds were super comfy!
The best was breakfast. Not only did they have waffles, they had waffle mix that you poured into the waffle maker & made yourself. They had hot oatmeal with raisins & brown sugar available to put on top. They had Jimmy Dean sausage & egg or sausage & egg & bacon that you could pop in the microwave; bagels, muffins, cereals, hard boiled eggs, fruit. It was a wonderful spread. I can't imagine anyone going away hungry or unhappy from this hotel.
