Put heat on in room and something died in unit causing a burnt hair smell. Front desk provided a new room.
It wasn't awful, just not the usual Fairfield in standard.
Elevator not working. Room at 78 when we checked in, kick down to 64 in middle of the night. Day time staff was not rude just matter of fact and direct.
The woman who checked all of us in was rude, snippy and just not very nice at all!!!

It was okay. Breakfast was good. Hotel was clean. Was quite disappointed the Elevator was out of service. Feel like that should have been advised prior to booking as I had to carry all my luggage up and down the stairs...

The hotel was adequate, but not great. The elevator was out, but fortunately we were given a room on the 1st floor. One bedside light bulb was out, the bathroom door could not be closed all the way, but it was secure, and there was an odd smell in the bathroom. Breakfast was done well and the staff was helpful.
The property was well located off of Rt 40. It could use some new towels but the staff were all lovely and the breakfast delicious

This property looked unkept from the outside. The landscaping needed a lot of work and there was a lot of weeds, which is not what you want to see when you pull up. The inside was clean. The interior just wasn’t what I expected from previous days with Marriott. The room was fine. Though the environment in the room felt damp.
