2 reviews for Fairfield Inn
Lincoln NE...where the players play.
We rolled out to Lincoln on short notice. We got in to the Fairfield at about 2030 hrs and was greeted by an understanding gentleman behind the counter. He was very helpful and happy to see us. The only thing lacking was the fresh baked cookies when u check in but I was too tired from driving to care...well okay that was the first thing I noticed, cuz I love cookies.
The staff was very nice, the amenities are adequate and the pool was well kept. The rooms were recently remodeled and very contemporary. There was no Ethernet port in the room, but wi-fi connectivity was available for both my laptop and iPod. They offer a complimentary continental breakfast from 0600 to 0900 each morning with the stay. The first morning we got downstairs for breakfast at about 0850, the attendant made it a point to notify me of the hours, a couple different times. But that's OK, the price was right and I deal with attitudes all day so maybe I'm immune to it.
My sister was in the room directly adjacent to ours. She called to verify plans and coordinate our schedules; and with my 2 year old screaming like a crazy girl, my sister noticed that she could not hear the baby thru the wall, only on the telephone. I've stayed at this hotel in the past, I'll likely stay at this location again.

For $100 night from http://hotels.com and the Marriott website, this hotel is definitely not worth the price. My requests for top floor and foam pillows were not met upon arriving late at the hotel. Also, the room was little better than the Super 8 motel which was $30 less. It was bigger and cleaner than our last hotel, but still not worth a night just to rest our heads. We really did not need any other amenities, such as their off-site 24-hr gym, indoor pool (closes at 12a), and complimentary breakfast (well that we will use :).
However, the front desk staff was friendly, but there were too many misses at too high a price to be pleased with this hotel. Other than that, it's conveniently located about 2-3 miles from highway 80.
For $60 more, I regret not reserving the Cornhusker hotel (also in Lincoln).
