My experience is complicated. I paid for my room on expedia but while checking in, they charged $221to my card. I was informed the next morning this was not supposed to happen. Almost a week later, I am still waiting on the charges to be removed from my card. The room was clean an dud not smell of cigarettes which is wonderful. But the pillows are terrible. We stayed less than 12 hours while traveling. The continental breakfast was a plus as well.

I booked me & my dads room because we came in town for my cousin's funeral. We arrived a little before 12 & there was no availability for us to check in early. We left & came back about 5 minutes to 3 & there still wasn't rooms available. They were changing shifts & the new girl that came on asked for me & my dads ID & a credit card. I expressed to her that I booked the rooms & told her to put incidentals on my card. After she checked my ID I put it away and then she asked me for it again. I asked her how many more times would she need it so I know when I could put it away & it seemed like she had an attitude. I asked was my marriott number put on the rooms & she said "no because you booked through a 3rd party". I told her I had messaged the hotel after I booked & asked for the number to be put on my account & that was why I asked. She still seemed like she had an attitude. I got to the room & there wasnt a bathtub which was an issue because I have an infant. I had to go to the front desk about it because the phone in the room didnt work & the same girl said "well you shouldve booked a handicap room". Thankfully I was given a tub to bathe my daughter. The evening guy was great. I told him about the situation with the girl earlier in the day & he apologized profusely letting me know she was new & that he was working on training with her & would talk to her about it. Outside of that everything was great. Breakfast was good. the hotel was nice and updated, and parking was easy.

This Fairfield Inn was very convenient to everything that we wanted to do in Charlotte. We were attending a concert at Skyler credit union amphitheater. It was less than 20 minutes from the hotel. The hotel seemed newer. The continental breakfast was good, the bed was comfortable, and it was a quiet hotel. Would definitely stay again.
