You get what you pay for. The rates for this location are great, so how bad could it be? Well, the food wasn't good at all. I'm not comparing it to restaurants in the area, I'm comparing to other hotel "free breakfasts." The people working there were wonderful, but the food was not good. Some food was only partially cooked and the selection was poor. We opted to find quick bites locally.
This property is in a beautiful, safe part of chicago. Most tourist attractions are close enough to walk or take the subway. The staff are so helpful. Our room was spacious and comfortable.
We had a lovely time. Although we didn't spend a lot of time in the room, it was clean and comfortable. The breakfast staff was very kind and attentive. We felt well taken care of.
Nice clean and spacious room. Front desk Staff was nice. Location is fine. Didn’t not realize this was opposite to a fire station. That caused little inconvenience due to the loud sirens. Breakfast was fine. The placement of the bagel section and the toaster should be reconsidered. That area was very crowded. Few of the TV channels did not work as the subscription had expired. Overall a good experience at this hotel.
Hotel was clean & check-in staff was super friendly & accommodating. Location was great. Breakfast was okay but the breakfast staff was super friendly. The bed was comfortable. The water pressure in the show was terrible. Nice & clean room!
We received the best service at this hotel! Everyone from front desk staff to valet to staff in the breakfast area was amazing - friendly and helpful. There’s a busy firehouse across the street. It didn’t bother us but may bother some. The hotel and staff made up for it. Well done, Fairfield Inn!
The hotel itself is in a great location for walking to most of the Chicago sightseeing attractions. The staff is among the best I’ve encountered at a hotel. The breakfast staff especially. Fannie & Javier at the breakfast area are particularly friendly!
Perfect location for exploring the downtown area. Room was comfortable. Some points to improve upon:
- Chair in the room was quite old.
- When the room is booked for 3 people it would be useful to have the coffee making material in the room for as many people instead of just 2.
