Fairfield Inn by Marriott

Very friendly front desk staff. Adequate parking. Clean rooms. Very low aircraft noise.

Pretty good hotel in Bellevue. It wasn’t my first choice but it was a decent choice.
Pro’s:
Room: HUGE. Clean bathroom. Comfy bed.
Breakfast: it was pretty good. They served scrambled eggs, sausage patties, bacon, melon medley, fruit, usual breakfast breads, do it yourself waffles, oatmeal, cereal. The eggs were very bland but that is totally ok with me as I could control salt and pepper on my eggs.
Location: Walking distance to strip mall with Bank of America, Rite Aid, etc. I think a lot of people will complain it might be too far but it’s down the hill and over the freeway bridge to strip malls.
Amenities: Indoor pool and Jacuzzi!
Con’s:
Room: had this weird odor
Breakfast: no variety; it was the same every day.
Not luxurious but great for business travelers.

Seems clean. But not on par with most Fairfields that I have been in. Food in morning is poor. Old eggs. Juice not working. Toaster is uneven. Lousy parking lot not big enough for all rooms.
People were nice but unless owners invest in this business it will not be a marriot for long.

My wife and I booked this hotel for our last day in Seattle. It was the closest Marriott to Sea-​Tac. I have been to many an airport hotel, so my expectations were not very high. This is not a hotel for vacationers. This is a spot for people who need to be in close proximity to the airport. The staff were all polite.
Our room was fine. Nothing stood out as good or bad. The bed was comfy enough. Our view was of a giant construction site. The wi-​fi was hotel-​quality (slow, but «free»). We did not try the breakfast (flight left early), so I can’t comment on it. The bathroom was sparse, but clean.
If you have a car, there are some decent food options in Des Moines, WA (try Wally’s Chowder House).

What can I say? Worst experience with Marriott.
All other experiences have been great… until now.
Got bumped off our flight to San Francisco and was given a hotel voucher for $ 59/​night.
I called this hotel per instructions on voucher. I spoke to Erica. I explained what I had. she said no problem, come in and bring a credit card.
We show up, show voucher and Erica declines it. She spent 5 minutes yelling at me as to why I had the voucher… I looked at her puzzled.
I explained we had talked earlier. She said the airline should not have given it out. I asked why she told me to come to the hotel over the phone if she was not going to hinor it… she then says the best I can do is $ 190 a night… ah the bait and switch. So instead of providing customer service, I was blamed for trying to use a voucher from the airline. Made to wait for an hour while she «checked» with the airline regarding authentication.
But you know what, once I agreed to pay the 190 she was no longer a mean, abrasive person… she wanted for money.
Picture posted…

HORRIBLE… Outdated Rooms, Horrible Location and they trick you into prepaying for your room through their booking. I guess that is because some people try to get away once they arrive at this location.
I’m Platinum with Marriott and totally got suckered into the «Pre-​Pay» Option, that «I NEVER» do, as my business travel continually changes. I canceled the reservation and even got a confirmation that it was cancelled, however they charged me the full three nights that I had originally booked.
I called them, and they stated they would refund the amount billed. Two months later I’m still fighting with them. Unfortunately this experience will cost Marriott over 50 nights per year in my loyalty. Sad to say one bad apple can bring the entire Marriott Brand down in a loyal customers experience with other properties.

I travel A LOT for work and have been too MANY Marriott properties and this has to be the worst. I only gave it two stars because the reception staff were professional & friendly.

This is a hard place for me to review. I stay over 100 nights a year in Marriott’s but RARELY stay in Fairfield Inns. I like a little more upscale than what Fairfield’s usually offer. With that being said, I have to review this hotel for what it is. A budget entry level into my favorite chain. I can’t compare it to the airport Marriott up the road that I usually stay at. As a budget hotel, this is a VERY good hotel. Customer service was amazing. Everyone was friendly and greeted me each time I was in the lobby. I like that the room itself has the sink and counter outside of the bathroom. The bed was comfortable. The TV was big and had a lot of channels… which also is very important. Why 4 not 5? While everything is kept fresh and clean, this is an old hotel. My room still had a window heat/​air unit and it didn’t work right. The layout and design of the hotel would not be close to what they would do in todays market.

Not a bad place to stay. Staff is extremely friendly. They have a Continental breakfast avail wi th your basic items. Site has an indoor pool with a hot tub. The cool thing is they have a 24 hour hotel shuttle. It took us directly to the train station link rail stop. Very easy access to downtown. Spent 3 nights here for a vacation to seattle. CONS: Got the double queen room for me… wife. .and 16 year old son. Rooms are small compared to other Marriotts i have stayed at. Small bathroom as well. Breakfast gets crowded after 7am. The hotel meet our needs just fine. Comfortable bed to sleep in for a long day of walking around Seattle.

I’ve stayed here many times, bouncing between this hotel and the Holiday Inn Express next door. Almost always it is because I have a very early flight (4:00−5:00am) and home is quite aways.
In any event I have never had their morning breakfast, until today … thus the breakfast is the focus of this updated review.
There appears to be a nice variety of breakfast items for most tastes… cold cereals, hot cereal, hard boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, sausage patties, waffles, pastries, yogurt, mixed cut fruits… pretty nice selection.
Unfortunately, the texture of the scrambled eggs is moist… some water in the warmer is good for helping keep the eggs from drying out… but not today, the eggs were so heavy and moist from the water that I couldnt eat them.
There is a similar problem with the sausage… almost to the point that I wonder if these patties were microwaved in water. Odd texture, appearance, and the flavor was lacking.
Thats enough for me to jump in the car and eat breakfast down the road… unfortunately I took the shuttle from the airport last night/​early this morning.
So, while my room has always been outstanding, and of course I will stay here again… if there is a choice, then I will skip the food and go elsewhere (eg. diner, airport, even McDonalds).

Room was very dated but served its purpose. Cheap and close to the hotel, stayed here cause of a layover, would not stick around longer than a night. Ok spot for short term stay or if you want to be close to the airport. Carpet was dirty and bathroom was odd. Downstairs check-​in area was totally updated and nice. Breakfast was standard and not good but not bad. «Meh» is how we felt. The hotel shuttle is definitely a plus! Took maybe 15 minutes to get either way. Make sure you are in the lobby 5 minutes before departure and it fills up fast. Staff was friendly! I would expect this as minimum wage is $ 15 an hour is this part of the country! We ordered takeout from some random Italian place. Came very fast and was actually tasty.

During a home remodel I stayed here for almost a week. This place is an excellent hotel. The staff is helpful, friendly and efficient. The breakfast is a great value, and always provides a waffle maker, fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, muffins, toast, scrabble eggs, some sort of sausage, and much more. They provide a free 24 hour shuttle to and from the airport. They’ll even take you anywhere you would like to go within a mile from the hotel which is great for colder or rainy seasons.
My absolute favorite part about this hotel would be their beds and soap products. The beds are extremely comfortable. So much so that I found it hard to get out of bed each morning. They provide good quality shampoo, conditioner and body soap.
The only thing that kept me from giving this place 5 stars would be their price. Weekends are usually priced better than weekdays. My price jumped between $ 79 for a night all the way up to $ 129 for a night, which I think is way too high!

This location has become my second home. I always choose to stay here for my business travels not only because of its location, free parking, free Wi-​Fi, free breakfast, clean rooms, free shuttle to restaurants and airport but simply because of the friendly staff that is always eager to help.
I’ve never had anything go wrong in all my stays here until recently. I decided that I would book my group at this hotel. Working with the group coordinator, Aubrie, made everything a smooth process. She was completely on top of it the entire time and followed up after to make sure everything went well. I mentioned we had something go wrong this trip, first time ever some of the folks in my group did not have hot water the next morning. It was an isolated event and the manager had reached out to me before I even touched down in Chicago. She apologized for the mishap and credited some points to our rewards account.
Even without the point credit I was impressed with the eagerness to make things right. I have no hesitation staying here again. I will book future groups here as well as recommend this hotel to my coworkers, friends and family.

I stayed here for a night earlier this week, and the hotel was definitely a good buy. It was just a few miles (about 10 mins) drive from the airport, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the hotel was clean, modern and comfortable. Compared to the Courtyard Inn I’ve preciously stayed at in Bothell, the rooms were much smaller bit for a quick 1 or 2 night stay, my room was more than sufficient. Also, the free breakfast was fairly substantial and saved me time & money in the morning. They have free parking & wifi too. For $ 111/​night, this hotel is a great value.

For what it is this place is alright. It isn’t a suites so the whole thing is standard rooms. The décor is dated, the gym is pretty terrible, but the service is the best I have had on the whole airport strip. I pretty much live on the road and this place, despite the outside appearance is never that bad.

The hotel was clean and the check in service was good but this hotel needs some updating.
I’ll never understand why some, older hotels have shower heads that are way too low. I’m average height and I had to point the shower head up as far as it would go and still crouch beneath to get a good stream of water over my head. Some of the guys I was traveling with are over 6′ tall and they joked that the shower was great for their belly button.
Also…the sheets are pretty rough. I’m not particularly fond of sleeping in sand paper. Some higher thread count sheets would go a long way towards a good night sleep.
The rates were reasonable and It’s convenient to the airport but I would go out of my way to choose another hotel next time.

This place is perfect if your looking for a clean mediocre price to stay a few nights while touring Seattle. I spent three nights and it’s location is pretty good. About 12 miles from downtown and no more then 5 minute drive to air port. I took the luxury for renting a car. Free parking free continental breakfast … Clean rooms no views. You literally get what you lay for … I have no complaints other then the horrible front desk ladies which are the worse … Other than that Everything was good … Ohhh yeah check in is at 3pm no exceptions…

For our first time ever in Seattle, this has got to be the best Marriott I have ever had the pleasure of staying in!
When we finally arrived at the hotel to check in, we were greeted by the lady at the front desk, who was also the one to check us in. She was extremely friendly and helpful. She answered all of my questions about getting around downtown and let me know that they are all willing to help answer any other questions.
One of my favorite people was our shuttle bus driver, Jama! We was extremely friendly and helpful. We built such a great friendship with him in the 3 days that we were there. Whenever my boyfriend and I saw him, we were EXCITED TO SAY HI! He gave us a few tips about the city, as well as dropped us off the the link light rail station daily, wished us a great day, and sometimes even picked us up! I loved how he was excited to hear our stories daily! He was just 2 THUMBS UP! We hope to see you again, Jama!
One of the perks to this hotel was eating free Continental breakfast! The downside was it was from 7am-​10am I believe. So, I had to get woken up by my boyfriend or else I didn’t eat! Lol.
I am already planning my next trip to Seattle, and I hope to stay here again! I love Seattle & I love Fairfield Seatac! =)
THANKS FOR THE HOSPITALITY!

I would give this place 1 star if it wasn’t for the front desk clerk who offered to pay for our taxi when the airport shuttle (which they share with the Holiday inn next door) never showed. We waited 30 minutes only to be told its a few minutes away. At the end they did offer to pay for our cab.
For our inconvenience, the front desk clerk was happy to upgrade us to a jacuzzi room. When we walked into the room it was obvious this room was or used to be a smoking room. The smell was overwhelming. We were quickly moved to another similar room that didn’t reek.
Location is not the greatest, not walking distance to any close restaurants, the shuttle would take you to a restaurant if you wanted to make those arrangements. If I wasn’t a loyal Marriott Rewards Elite member I would not be staying here again, in fact I think I won’t be staying here again.
The front desk clerk was accommodating and helpful and didn’t flinch when I was raising my voice after the 4^th time I called and told the shuttle was a few moments away. That shuttle driver was either on a break or part of someone’s imagination.
Non existent.
Skip this place, find another hotel.

This is a really nice inexpensive hotel. A four stars inexpensive hotel!
Okay, so this isn’t a Fairmont, but the rooms were spacious and there were plenty of space for a work table (not desk) and a King size bed. Also, each room came with it’s own Wi-​Fi and a 40′ HD flat screen, a nice touch.
Being right next door to a Sea-​Tac runway, you would think that noise would be an issue, but it’s not. Clearly, some thought went into the design of the building and windows — so the noise is almost nonexistent.
Another amenity was the shuttle bus service to Sea-​Tac which is run by the hotel and is not part of a larger service. So a bus ride is available every twenty minutes. Again, nice!
All in all, a nice place to stay and have a good nights sleep.
WOW!
