Stayed for a weekend recently while attending the state rowing championships. We stayed here last year for the same event and really enjoyed our experience. The facility is still nice enough, as it is a fairly new hotel. But, there must have been a management change as the service has really deteriorated. I am a Marriott Platinum member and frequently...

During my boot camp course in Sarasota I stayed in this hotel. The rooms are big and have a desk with a good chair and a fast internet connection which is perfect if you need to learn and study for a course. The room was very vell equipped and clean. The friendly staff is helping you with anything you need.... More

We stayed here 5 nights on points during our house hunting trip. The property is actually in Bradenton at the beginning of Lakewood Ranch (a huge housing development with 2 exits off the interstate). Breakfasts were neatly presented and had a good variety. Staff was pleasant. Marriott properties always are step above others. There is a wide selection of restaurants... More

The staff at the Fairfield are very efficient and take good care of their guests. The rooms are spacious, clean, and equipped with a fridge, microwave, coffee-maker, and good (free) wifi. And the location is excellent: you can walk to at least 4 decent restairants and a grocery store, and there's lot's more within a short drive. Intersate 75 is... More

We stayed at the Fairfield Inn on March 2-3. We actually used Marriott points for our room, but I believe the rates they charge ($170 or so) are a bit high for the property. The room and hotel were very clean. The lobby was nice, but not ornate. The room was disappointing. It had 2 double beds. Who uses double... More

Upon checking in, I found my room next to the elevator - uh, oh - was my response - never heard a noise. The folks at check in were very pleasant as well as the cleaning staff. Very clean hotel, just keep in mind this is a Marriott target marketed to be less than the Courtyard. However, I found this... More

Everything is OK - The lady who checked me in did everything at her own speed..... The hotel is OK - I have stayed in better Fairfield Inn's. The breakfast most of which comes in a plastic pouch is OK. The king room was OK. At $120 a night on the side of I-75 in Lakewood Ranch - It could... More

Ok, newer is always better when it comes to hotels. This location seemed to be a little newer than some of the other Fairfields I have stayed in over the years. Getting upgraded to one of the suite rooms helped as well. I little extra room is always nice in a hotel when you can get it. Other than these... More

The stay was good and met expectations. Breakfast was included and better than expected with hot items. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Seemed a little under staffed when we checked in and the front desk worker was visibly tired and didn't try to hide it. Free wifi in lobby and rooms was nice.
