Stayed one night with my wfie and our two kids. The front desk staff were great! Very Very helpful with all of our little requests. Room was very clean as was the bathroom and the entire facility. Breakfast was very good with many fresh fruit choices and hot waffels. Our kids loved the waffles.

Would reccomend to anyone traveling in the area.

This hotel has to compete with the awesome Holiday-Inn Lakewood Ranch (see Sarasota hotels) which is just one-half mile away and they do a great job of it.

Clean, excellent service and good rates. Good restaurants within walking distance. There iS active competition between these two Lakewood Ranch properties and both hotels are outstanding -- but what else could you expect at top-notch Lakewood Ranch?

Bear in mind they're not the Ritz Carlton, nor are they TRYING to be but if you want a lot of bang for your buck, this particular hotel is consistently one of the best I stay at when I travel for work. I'm here at least once a month and the staff is always friendly and quick to greet you. The rooms are spotless and I've never had to ask for a thing. The free high-speed internet and free breakfast (and it's so much more than "doughnuts and cheap coffee") make it perfect for business travel and it's convenient to 75.

Monty's Pizza in the Publix shopping center has great food and for breakfast try First Watch (same shopping center) for a spot the locals recommend!

This was a great find from the minute we walked in the door. We were using it as a stop over along the east coast on the way to the keys, so we weren't in the area long. The staff at the front desk were very pleasant and very polite. Agree with the other reviews that hotel was like new, exceptionally clean. Our double room was a little on the small size but very clean and well kept. The hotel was very quiet, but with a lovely atmosphere. There was a computer with free internet access in the lobby which was very handy, and both the pool and the fitness room was very quiet and peaceful. They also had a laundry room which was kept exceptionally clean, which was very useful when you are away from home for 3weeks! Hot and cold breakfast provided which was great, plenty of choice, the breakfast room was peaceful, plenty of room, providing a nice start to the day.
Chilli's is right next door and was great.
We had never stayed in a Fairfield before, but if they are all like this, we will be staying in a lot more of them in the future.
