We enjoyed our stay at Marriott Fairfield Inn & Suites in Clear Lake, IA! Hotel had “new appearance” & check in process was smooth even though we added 2nd night’s stay. The thing that we didn’t enjoy was the complimentary breakfast, fruit should be replaced more often, minor issue but heard others express the same sentiments. Overall, stay was was nice & would recommend to family and friends! Thank you! 😊

Too bad

Our television didn’t work and they were unable to do anything because they had no maintenance. The person at the front desk had no power and they couldn’t move us because they didn’t have any housekeeping. My husband and I then figured out that the whole wall of outlets (with the television, lamps, other outlets) had a fuse blown. The general manager said she was going to credit our account and it’s three weeks later and we haven’t seen anything except an extra $30 charge come out. Won’t go back. Don’t go until they work out the bugs

When we checked in we were told many of the rooms had non-working tv's. We were asked if we wanted a tv, and we said yes. Got to room, tv did not work. Tried to call front desk to ask for another room, phone did not work. Called hotel from my cellphone and asked for another room. They said they could move us for our 2nd night. The next morning we moved to another room, and the front desk clerk personally checked it to be sure tv worked. It was on when we got there, but when we changed channel, it quit working. Also, no second mirror in the first room. Only about 10 tissues in the both rooms, and my allergies were acting up, so used toilet paper. Very disappointed. Highest priced hotel in Clear Lake, and no offer to discount room for no tv.

Stayed as a long time Bonvoy member. Fairfield always my go to. Dependable. Not this time or this location. TVs don’t work, wires hanging everywhere from tv, bathrooms need a deep clean, red/pink mold in shower. Parts broken off in shower. Felt more like a budget hotel experience not a $200 room.

On Friday morning May 30, 2025 the fire alarm went off TWICE before 8AM. Both times the alarm stopped within 20 seconds. However the alarm in my room was VERY loud. The front desk said it was test and security was looking into it. Please, do not test alarms in the early morning hours! There is only one bar/grill within walking distance. There is a sidewalk in front of the hotel which goes for maybe 1/8 of a mile. The airport is 1.3 miles away (3 minutes) and a taxi ride costs $25. There are no sidewalks on Route Business 18 so pedestrian access is dismissal.
