The Fairfield Inn is a well located hotel on a main throughfare of Lafayette. There are many shops and restaurants on the street and it's right off the freeway. The front desk was good and overall good condition property. I had a double queen bed. It had a good size desk and the free WiFi was nice/fast. The room has a coffee maker. In the morning, there is a free continental breakfast. There were two hot items, sausage gravy/biscuits and waffles. The waffles were ok. There is a computer in the lobby with printer which is nice to print boarding pass. There is also a small indoor pool. Overall, my only complaint of this hotel is the thin walls. I was on the 1st floor and I can hear every step the room above me. I think I also heard a cell phone alarm that went off nice door

After reading other reviews, I was worried, but everything was great. The room was perfectly clean and the front desk greeted me promptly, and provided very friendly service They had free bottle water to give away, and other treats for Marriott rewards guests. They had a promotion going where they were giving an extra 200 points for staying with them. The breakfast was nice and standard for Fairfield Inns. Location is near the highway and uninspiring, and there are chain restaurants nearby, though I recommend going into the city which is only about a 6 or 7 minute drive away. I would certainly stay here again if in town!

We booked a suite which was really a large room partitioned to act as one. The room was clean, no issues. It did have a microwave and a refrigerator, but we could not use due to our own duration of stay. The free breakfast had limited options and was below average. The hotel could have provided better options for the same cost. Coffee was the redeeming feature. As a Marriott Rewards Elite Member, I was entitled to late check out. I did mention this when checking in. The front desk did acknowledge this and recorded it. To my surprise, I got a call at 1 PM from the front desk, asking me if I needed to stay an extra day, since I have not yet checked out. When I mentioned that I had planned to check out at 2 PM, she took care of it. However, when we reached the room prior to check out, we could not get in. We had to go and get a fresh set of cards to get into the room. The staff were nice, but the hotel needs to do a better job of handling the exceptions and breakfast.

I used this property for a weekend stay. Because of negative experiences in other Fairfield properties, I was't sure what to expect. I was surprised. The property is not new but is well maintaned, rooms are clean, free breakfast certainly adequate, and the price was good. The staff was helpfull and considerate.

Well done, Fairfield Inn, Lafayette!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
