I recently stayed at Fairfield by Marriott, and overall, I found the property to be well maintained. The rooms were nicely updated, and the common areas were in good condition. They have amenities like a 24/7 gym, a children's play area, and a pool, which added to the convenience of the stay. While the hotel doesn't have a beach view or direct access, it is located just 700 meters away (a quick 3-minute drive), which was still convenient for me.

Parking was available outside the property, and there was ample space. However, it's worth noting that there are only three shaded parking spots located about 50 meters ahead of the main gate. If you prefer covered parking or if the hotel is busy, this could be a limitation.
One aspect that I noticed compared to other Marriott properties was that the rooms at Fairfield felt a bit tight. In particular, the bed felt smaller than what I was accustomed to. It's possible that room sizes and bed dimensions vary among different Marriott properties, but it's something to consider for those who prioritize spacious accommodations.
Regarding the restaurant, the staff was generally good, but I felt that they could benefit from additional training. While they were polite and attentive, there seemed to be room for improvement in terms of service efficiency and attentiveness to guest needs.
Overall, my stay at Fairfield by Marriott was pleasant, and I don't have any major complaints. However, there is certainly some scope for improvement. Providing feedback to the hotel management, either directly or through online reviews, can be helpful in encouraging them to address these areas and enhance the overall guest experience.
