We loved our stay at Fairfield! There were a few things that made me scratch my head...the breakfast was a HOT mess. I understand it was a Fall Break weekend but holy Hannah Montana....when my daughter and I made it through the ten minute wait, everything was gone! We had cold cereal... The coffee was even gone. Also, the seating was sparse... Our room was clean and we'll stocked with clean towels and pillows. The only thing I found off was the AC unit only hit the bed in front of it.... I bet new beds had been purchased cause they were extra comfy...but I don't think the height and AC unit were taken into account....
