Guest Reviews
- Susan (10/5): - veey nice spacious rooms
- Alastair (10/5): Nice clean hotel, quiet, good breakfast - Nice clean modern hotel, good breakfast. Slightly let down by poor flat pillows. Air con will go off when leaving the room as it detects movement.
- Joshua (10/5): - Clean and friendly. Tucked away from the busy street and close to several restaurants.
- Kevin (10/5): - Just really nice clean hotel with great breakfast. Will stay again for sure.
- Danielle (10/5): - Easy check in and parking. Arrived late and left early. Encountered helpful staff, appreciated the convenient location.
- Cynthia (10/5): - We really enjoyed our stay, just wish there was a microwave in the room, other then that you guys was very accommodating.
- Ashley (10/5): - Great place!
- Mark (10/5): Great Fairfield! - We were driving from Kentucky to Florida and decided to stop when we got tired and found a room. We found this Fairfield and it was so nice. We will plan our future trips to the beach with a stop here.
- Denise (10/5): Girls trip - We really enjoyed the hotel! The breakfast was beyond a typical hotel breakfast! The attendant, Megan was so helpful and accommodating and nice to chat with! She was doing a great job keeping the trays full and area clean! Highly recommend this place!
- Kristi (8/5): - Hotel in nice area with easy access and parking. Room was plenty spacious and beds were comfortable. Hotel Staff were sparse and not very friendly. Breakfast was very basic and not at all tasty. Some Breakfast Items with posted signs were just not there and I hardly saw a staff member to ask anything until we were basically finished with breakfast.
- Lawrence (10/5): - The hotel is well kept. The staff were nice. The breakfast was better than expected. Highly recommended
- Melissa (10/5): - We had a great stay! Nice staff, clean, good breakfast and convenient location!
- Shushannah (10/5): - The hotel was really close driving distance to two different shopping plazas. One had a Publix and the other had several restaurants to choose from.
Breakfast was good. I would have like a plant-based milk option though and fruit. There was fruit juice. I bought some coconut milk at Publix and put it in the mini fridge. The fridge was too cold and froze it! Lol. I realized after that I could adjust the temp.
They had booth seating but the table part was high to the seats so I felt like a little kid. Lol. And one booth table was crooked. Looked like it was about to fall. I sat at a freestanding table on another day and that table to chair ratio was better.
There were some noisy guests in another room. Their TV was loud. But other than that it was quiet.
I loved the bathroom. It had a tub, yay! And the toilet had a half wall next to it which offered some small privacy for double occupancy.
All in all, it was nice and convenient. I would stay there again.
- Clint (8/5): - Great stay. Simple overnight. Room was great, bed was a little firmer than we like but overall a good stay. Close to everything in a really nice area.
- Karen (10/5): - This location is a bit out of the way (6 miles) from I-65, but so worth the extra few minutes. It is a safe and pretty area, in a corporate business district. This location has lots of dining and shopping choices. The staff were all very nice and personable. The rooms were clean and the bed very comfortable. The included breakfast was better than a typical continental breakfast. Will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!
- Charles (10/5): - Nice facility and it fit the bill for what I needed for the night
- Susan (2/5): NEED REFUND FOR THIS STAY - I booked this in error as I was trying to extend my stay at the Marriott Fairfield Inn, as I was suffering from extreme food poisoning and wasn't able to depart as planned. When I contacted Hotels. com I was told they couldn't help getting me a refund. i would appreciate better follow-up from Hotels.com to issue me a credit for this stay. If you check my history, you will find a duplicate booking for same night at my preferred hotel. Please refund
- Erika (10/5): - Stayed at this property several times and has been pleasant each visit.
- Carlderio (10/5): Talladega Spring Race - Room service was the best part of the hotel! Rooms were clean and they completed room service each day in full. Plenty of parking and front desk staff was very friendly!
- Leigh (10/5): - Clean and convenient
- Michael (10/5): - Great Location and modern facility.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The stay was short. The room was nice but it felt like the carpet wasn't vacuumed properly and the tub did not drain well.
- Qunzaverius (10/5): - GreAt
- Erin (10/5): - Nice rooms, friendly staff, overall great stay
- Kacie (10/5): Would definitely stay again - My husband and I were only there for a quick overnight stay. It was very clean, very comfortable, and very inviting. The bed was comfortable, and the staff was incredibly nice.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Not prepared for the large number of guests - They were unprepared for the hotel to be filled up for the bowl game the city was hosting. They did not have staff to run the breakfast and were out of most of the foods. The desk clerk was having to run back and forth to go heat food to bring out, wash dishes and utensils, etc.
- Richard (10/5): Overnight. Perfect - Trip to beach overnight stay. Very nice hotel. Good breakfast.
- Paul (10/5): - Modern and clean rooms and grounds
- Jorgen (10/5): - Nice location
- William (10/5): - Property was clean, employees were friendly.
- Kristina (10/5): - Very friendly staff and was very clean.
- Noelle (8/5): Sweet Location - Great location with a few Tesla chargers right in the parking lot. Our room was clean and comfortable but in need of some maintenance in the bathroom. Overall, a decent stay.
- Nancy (10/5): - I enjoyed my stay . The most comfortable beds ever and very clean. Love this place.
- Jessica (10/5): Good one night stay for soccer - One night stay for child’s soccer tournament. Hotel was very clean and staff was courteous. Great breakfast!

- STEVEN (2/5): - My phone charger came up missing
- Lizeth (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay everything and everyone were just perfect
- Ronald (10/5): - Very clean, comfortable rooms. Staff helpful and friendly..Covenient access to major arteries making driving easy to various areas .
- Danielle (6/5): - My room smelled very strange like dog and fragrance to cover and it was very loud. We could hear cars, people walking above us, etc.
- John (10/5): - We felt safe, it was very quiet and the room was very nice! Shopping is very close by.
- Cimberlie (10/5): - Property is very clean, breakfast was good and everyone was very nice.
- Zaneta (10/5): - Very nice clean rooms. Very friendly staff. Would definitely stay at this hotel again! The only thing I would suggest is more lights on the roads driving into the hotel.
- Michael (2/5): - Made my reservation as a nice treat in the first leg of my trip for work. About 45 minutes later, I noticed the dates were wrong.
Contacted expedia where I was informed this constitutes a cancelation which is rediculous. They still would have gotten the money just on a different night. Expedia contacted them and they refused to change it. This is such piss poor customer service and I, as a Marriott gold member, expected better. But there's a simple fix here.
I will never stay at a Marriott ever again.
You may have gotten a free night from me, but your company is about to lose 7 nights of bookings. Hope it was worth it.
- Darcy (6/5): - Comfortable bed. Nice place overall. Needs some repairs and updates.
- paige (6/5): - The staff was extraordinary.
- DEBORAH (8/5): BAMA GETAWAY - It was a good weekend getaway with the grandkids
- Deborah (4/5): - The mattress was hard and pillows too soft. The food was not goof
- Dave (10/5): - Difficult to find in the dark
- natalie (10/5): Nice and clean - Nice new hotel very clean
- janice (10/5): - It was wonderful!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great stay - From the parking lot all the way to the rooms bathroom it was impeccably clean. The bed was not quite the most comfortable I've slept on but it was a wonderful stay. The decor was perfect and the staff was very polite. It is close to shopping and restaurants.
- Christina (10/5): - Hotel was clean, beautiful decor, extremely comfortable bed! I stayed for one night and I didn’t want to leave. I will be staying again next month! Thank you!!
- Tess (10/5): - Nice property and quiet
- Karen (8/5): - Missed coffee service in room both days.
- Tanya (10/5): - The hotel was located about a mile from Grand View Medical Center which was very convenient for me. There is a shopping center across the street with various restaurants. The area is safe/quiet.
- Kay (10/5): Nice stay - Nice clean stay! Friendly staff! Nice outdoor pool! Good breakfast! I have stayed here twice an both visits went well!!!
- Marvin (8/5): - The breakfast was great..great options
- Brittany (10/5): Great! - Clean, easy check in/check out process. Great location. Lot of shopping and restaurants within 3-5 mins away
- Katherine (6/5): - Staff was nice, parking lot limited especially in the evenings, lots of restaurants near by, hotel was clean and inviting. The only problem was our room was right beside the main interstate and the pool. It was so noisy and we did not get any sleep that night. If I had known, I would have asked for the rooms closer to the front of the hotel but I’m not sure if that would have made a big difference.
- John (8/5): - Room was nice. Fitness center not good. 4 cardio machines. 3 were broken. Many people tried to use the room but couldn’t. Breakfast was fair. Not one of my better stays in Birmingham.
- Annabel N. (10/5): - Sorry there wasn't a microwave in the room. Otherwise a very pleasant stay and room!
- Susie (10/5): - close to Grandview. friendly staff, wonderful stay
- Edwin (2/5): - Liked location.
Did not like rude kitchen employer who confronted me about coffee cups, of all things. Aggressive rude speech
- Alicia (4/5): - I was looking for a place for my children to swim for spring break. This was the 4th hotel that day i tried. I was told the over the phone that it was a inside pool. Got to hotel and it was a outside pool. While at hotel was told that pool was heated. Got in pool and it was cold. I ordered i suite and to sleep up to 4 guests. Got in such room and it wasn't a suite. A conjoined room without a let out bed. My children and i had to sleep on floor. It was only 4 of us. I was very disappointed and so where my children.
- Brandon (10/5): - Very clean and staff was friendly. Would definitely stay again.
- Emily (6/5): Quick Trip - We were just in town for one night and the hotel was good for a quick stay. The lobby and all common areas were clean and updated. The check-in process was quick and the staff friendly. The room was mostly nice overall. It was noticeably dirty around the edges of the floor in the bathroom and there were crumbs in the corner of the room near one of the beds. The beds were not very comfortable at all. Given the price, I expected higher standards than that. So, it’s was good for a quick stay but we wouldn’t stay longer than one night if we return to Birmingham.
- Rebecca (6/5): Not too good for the price - Yes, the hotel looks new but it's cheap construction.. you can literally hear those above you walking around their room and we needed a room change because we had jumpy children up above. The breakfast is below average, please sort out that Waffle mix.. it's so bland I saw many people like me, we threw the waffle away because there was no sweetness and it's soggy. Room was ok but we had ants in our bathtub which we showed the frontdesk and had to have another room change..
- Dennis (10/5): Great, but… - Great stay. But… Under bedside table, the wall was damaged around the power socket and a piece of wall was laying on the floor. I expect better from this company.
- Amanda (10/5): Would stay again in the future - Very clean. Employees were very friendly.
- Jeff (10/5): nice stay - Clean room and friendly staff.
- John (10/5): - This hotel was super clean and fresh! We loved our stay!
- Melissa (4/5): - The lobby and waiting area looked nice like it had been refurbished. Then we get to our room on the second floor. The bathtub had mold on the outside on the sides and in the corners. The bathtub also had horrible stains inside. The beds were absolutely horrible. It was like sleeping on the floor. I visit Birmingham every three months and switched to this place because the Marriot Springhill Suites was worse than this on. Not returning to a Marriot!
- Oliver (6/5): Disappointing - The hotel is beautiful, the bed comfortable, and check-in was a breeze. The unhappiness came the next morning. Although check-out was at noon, housekeeping was knocking on the door at 930am. Very annoying.
A little before 11am, I took some bags to my car and went back to the room for the rest but my keys no longer worked. So, I had to return to the front desk for a new key. Less than two minutes later, I am back at the front desk dropping off the key and the clerk asks me which room. Really? She had just activated the key not two minutes before.
Regardless of how nice a room is, poor customer service will have me looking for a different hotel the next time I am in town.
- John (4/5): - They permitted guests next door to play loud music every night until 1 am and would not allow us to love rooms
- Shayne (8/5): Overnight for Soccer Camp - Hotel was convenient to dining and shopping and overall very clean and comfortable. We did have an issue with noisy neighbors and our in room phone did not work. After 1.5 hours and 2 calls to the front desk our neighbors finally quieted down. Breakfast was mediocre but we discovered the waffle mix was spoiled and soured after we made waffles. There was no one downstairs to report to so I don't know if they ever realized it was bad. We ending up grabbing something at Edgar's bakery which is the shopping center very close and it was delicious.
- Ginger or Jason (10/5): - Everything was SO clean and neat. It stands heads above the rest at the same price. We will definitely stay here again.
- Carly (10/5): Great place! - Great place! Clean and updated. Nice staff.
- William B. (10/5): - Beautiful area, very clean, very helpful management.
- Margaret (10/5): Visiting Heather Lake Preserve - We had an excellent experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and the beds very comfortable. The hotel was full yet our room and the floor was super quiet. I will stay here again.
- Vanessa (10/5): - No complaints what do ever
- Venetria (10/5): - It was a good stay room was clean and quiet.
- Stacey (10/5): - Convenient to the Summit shopping and parking as well as highway
- Heather (10/5): - Very clean
- Sherri (10/5): - Clean, quiet, and comfortable. Tasty, abundant breakfast.
- Brent (10/5): - Very clean. Very nice staff. Truly!
- Freddie (10/5): - Very clean,good breakfast, and friendly staff.
- Frank (4/5): - Very uncomfortable beds. We’ve been staying in this area prior to our FL vacation for years. Usually we stay at the place next door and wanted to try a new place. We checked in at approximately 11pm. The front desk clerk was asleep in a chair. The bed was incredibly hard and it was the worst continental breakfast we’ve ever had. Powdered scrambled eggs and some kind of bland sausage. Never again.
- Terry L (10/5): - We had an excellent check in and room was clean. Great breakfast before we left next morning
- Tameka (6/5): - I wish they would actually change the sheets every guest and not just remake the beds. My bed sheets had several stains on them.
- Amanda (10/5): - Great place. Great breakfast. Only complaint: you have to pay a parking fee that’s not included in the advertised price of stay. I like to know the true total cost of stay when choosing a hotel.
- Andressa (10/5): - Amazing staff! Specially Victoria from front desk and Elisangela the cleaning lady!
- Manon (10/5): - We had a great week end, room was very cleaned and staff was great!
- Jenny (8/5): - Everything was great except the breakfast...it was prepacked breakfast items so not what we expected.
- Auneca (10/5): - I
- Scott (10/5): Quiet and comfortable. - Very nice place. Grounds and lobby were clean and organized. Staff was polite and helpful. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was great and free. Lotsnof options. Everything i needed in an overnight stay. The only thing i should mention is the site info on here says there is a restaurant. This is not true. However, there are about 20 places to eat within 1/4 mile of the hotel so no big deal.
- Steven (10/5): - The hotel was very clean, the decor was modern and beautiful, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful and it felt very safe With health and safety concerns while still putting out a tasty breakfast
- Sheila (10/5): - Friendly staff and great location
- Demetrius (10/5): Very clean hotel.. Superb location - The hotel was extremely nice and clean!! I love the fact that it is smoke free and pet free for my children with allergies.
