Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Mankato

Excellent!

Was a great stay all around.

Friendly staff, clean property.

It is a rare occurrence when one stays at a hotel that not only meets beyond expectations, but does it with a high degree of panache. The last few months have been an endless parade of hotels and most, if not all, were subpar at best. Until I arrived at Fairfield Inn & Suites Marriot, from the first day of my stay, which lasted approximately 2 weeks the staff was helpful, patient, kind, and most of all exuded a type of sincere warmth that one can only get from people of sustenance. Throughout my stay, the staff remained consistent with all above-mentioned behaviors, and as a result made my longer stay even more enjoyable. There are several Hotel Personnel that merit mention; Adam the General Manager, Nate the front desk Supervisor, Evan a desk staff, Justin the night auditor, Ashley the front desk staff, Anna the Assistant General Manager, Rhianna the front desk lead, and Brady the front desk staff. All of these staff members went out of their way to help me with whatever I needed at the time, and more importantly, did not show an ounce of frustration. And believe me I can be a pest. Their continental breakfast was very tasty with a scrambled egg mixture, waffles, and many different types of bread and fruit, even enough to satisfy even the most scrutinous of guests. Additionally, their rooms are elegant, clean, with maid services checking in every day. Overall it is with no reservations that I strongly recommend that if you are in Mankato, MN for pleasure or business the Fairfield Inn & Suites is the most conducive to meeting all of their guests needs. Due to my impressive stay at this hotel I have since conferred with my employment and convinced them to reach out to Marriot and contract with them for all of our company’s personnel that travel and stay in various cities throughout the country.

This hotel is right out of the 80's. So very dated. The staff were great, no complaints. Our room's balcony was on the pool side. So room cooled off great when we put the air on. Too cold if you can believe it. But the comforter is little more than a sheet. Blanket was meh. Pillows felt like just cases stuffed of poly-fil. If we weren't so desperate for a room on HC wkd, we would have stayed elsewhere.

Watch out for room 307, there is a fan in the bathroom ceiling that is extremely loud and can be heard 24 Hrs a day. Your only reprise from the noise is to close the bathroom door which removes most of the noise but not all. I was able to sleep but more sound sensitive might have an issue. I mentioned it at check out and was told that there is nothing the hotel can do about the noise. I strongly suggested that they not book that room, but since they know about it and booked me in it’s obvious that it will be booked. Stay away from this room and all should be good. Staff is friendly and property and room are very clean. I would recommend this hotel anytime just not this room.
