Travel tips
Plan on driving for most activities; many top attractions listed are several kilometers away, and guests commonly reference approximate drive times to downtown Rochester. If you want a calmer breakfast and lobby experience, aim for off-peak times—reviews indicate the breakfast area can get crowded, especially when youth sports teams are staying. If a hot tub is important to your stay, confirm expectations in advance, as guests specifically note there isn’t one.
What guests say
Guests consistently describe this as a newer Fairfield with clean, modern rooms, comfortable beds, and notably large showers. Staff interactions are frequently mentioned positively. The setting is often characterized as quiet despite being near a strip mall. On the downside, some guests note the indoor pool is very small and that there is no hot tub. A recurring situational issue is crowding and noise when youth sports teams are staying, which can also lead to slower breakfast replenishment at peak times.
