    The area around the window seemed like it had maybe leaked before and the ceiling looked like it had been damaged and patched back. Nothing major, but it indicated a need for a bit of a remodel.

    We stopped in Waco for the night on our way to Padre Island. The hotel met our expectations. The pool seemed a little small, so we did not use it. The hotel breakfast was excellent. Staff was very friendly and helpful at check in and check out. We left a stuffed animal behind and the hotel offers a shipping service to return items left behind (though it's a bit overpriced).

    Location maybe...not familiar with Waco, visiting my Niece who was there for school, so would have picked a different location if i had been there for my visit.

    Am a Marriott rewards member, but had never stayed at a Fairfield Inn before, was pleasantly surprised. Front Desk clerk was very hospitable. Room was exceptionably clean and well appointed. Beds/pillows were just right. Tried breakfast before checking out, good choices.

    It's nice that they have an indoor pool, but it was really too small for swimming. We saw a family with their kids splashing around in the pool, which is probably its only function.

    The beds, bedding and pillows were very comfortable. Their breakfast was pretty extensive, although I guess because of COVID, they only offered wrapped breakfast sandwiches, instead of scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, and sausages. All-in-all we had a comfortable stay.

    The unfriendliness of woman who checked me in she had no personality. Arrived at 2:40pm she would not check me in until 3pm!! However, there were 2 other couples came in right after me yet they got checked in! The bed was hard and creaky. The coffee pot was missing the basket to put the coffee in. The whole room was outdated but, clean. Yellow walls and Teal colored accent wall wasn't for me either.

    The breakfast was wonderful and the area and dining area was clean. The attendant was friendly and kept the food stocked. There were many items to choose from to eat. They had coffee, hot chocolate, and lemonade available at all times for all tenants convenience. The room was clean. There was a hair dryer which was great since I had forgotten mine! I enjoyed the complimentary bottles of lotion, shampoo, conditioner and bar soaps. The a/c worked great! The tv was good. Tables with lights and plugs on each side of the bed. Dark room. There were 2 adults and a child in my group and there were 3 sets of towels which is exactly what we needed! After traveling so long, I enjoyed the footstool for my tired legs and feet. All in all, for the price I paid for the room for king suite, it was worth it!!!

    There was coffee in my bathroom sink like someone dumped coffee and didn’t clean it. Needs more than one trash can in room. Elevator needs attention, cleaning and maintenance.

    Great location, good breakfast and had fresh fruit, water and coffee in the lobby all the time.

    The Hotel was nice, the selling point for me was the indoor pool. I would tell the guest that the pool is not heated, my husband loves to swim I was so excited about the pool for him. It didn't work out like I thought the pool cold.

    I didn't like that they don't clean the rooms during your stay. We didn't over use towels, but they were out of towels in pool area so had to use ones in room and then go to front desk if you want more. I think if rooms are cleaned each day this wouldn't have been a problem.

    Breakfast was good a little messy if you wanted a waffle, over all there was so much to choose from it was nice. The pool was nice, The rooms were clean and comfortable, Staff was very polite.

    The rooms were a little small for a Fairfield, I booked two King rooms and the front desk staff said they had us down for two queen rooms I ended up with one king room and one room with two Queen beds. The breakfast was awful they didn’t have a lot of items to choose from the waffle maker was not working, they had 4 pieces of hard bread to toast, only oranges and no pastries. They had plenty of bacon and eggs to choose from. Very little oatmeal, and a few boxes of cereal. I guess they are short staff because the person setting up breakfast was also working the front desk.

    Close to the Mall and Restaurants
