Best Hotel

I ended up at this hotel after coming to Bessemer for my father in laws funeral. I original was at the Hamilton Inn which turned out to be going through renovations and they didn’t advertise it. The Fairfield Inn will be my go to hotel whenever I’m in Alabama . It was very clean the staff was very helpful and friendly.. The Continental Breakfast was everything to me and my Family.. U smell the cleanliness as soon as u walk in the lobby.. I would recommend this hotel to my Family and friends. I’m very funny about where I stay.. They had an indoor pool , laundry room and a fitness center.. The location is also convent to shopping and food.. Sorry I didn’t take pictures..

It was noisy. We could hear conversations to the room next to ours. There was also a lot of stumping or hard walking in the room above ours. The front desk staff were very polite however, housekeeping attempted to come clean our room 3 hours before check out.

Terrible experience

We were double charged at this Hotel. The night clerk said our card wasn’t processed when we checked in. So we paid twice. I addressed in the morning, and we were told they couldn’t do anything until the charges were not pending. I followed up in a few days and was assured it would be fixed. It was not. This is a kind of theft by deception. Additionally, there was mold in the Philly cheese at breakfast. The staff at breakfast was lovely though.
