Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Indianapolis Downtown

Overall experience was fantastic. The hotel is clean, the staff are friendly, the rooms are beautiful, and location to everything downtown is great. Parking is a trip. It is underground parking with the other hotels, so that was a little different to experience, but the hotels are color coordinated, so that helped with where to park. Parking is on the pricey side, but if you bring your ticket to the front desk, it can be reduced by the day. There was a slight issue with the elevator, but front desk staff helped, and the issue was resolved by the end of our stay. The front office staff was very kind, attentive, and very helpful. There was always someone there when we came down from our room. The area for breakfast and seating around it is quite spacious, was very clean and well taken care of by the staff. Food was fresh and delicious. It is listed that there is a TGI Fridays in the building or nearby, but it is closed. At the front desk, there is a great snack/small meal area for purchase, which is very nice, but there is other food locally as well that can be walked to or delivered to the hotel. The room itself was very comfortable. The beds are soft, there is a small refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker in the room. The desk is large, there are a decent number of outlets around the room, the TV is large, and there is a lot of room for storing what you bring with you. The last thing to share, and I would be silly not to mention it, is the bathroom. It is spacious, the amenities are nice (including a large hair dryer), and there are large shampoo, conditioner, and body wash bottles in the shower. The shower is 100/10!! One of the best showers I've taken in a long time. The water gets nice and hot, the shower head is huge, and it is very relaxing. Again, overall, a great stay. I hope to stay again soon!

Checking in was a Breeze ( I had called 1 time prior to this trip to line everything out) feather free pillows because of down allergies in the family. This hotel got it right. The warm reception from from the nice lady at front desk had me feeling like VIP!!! Thank you for that (Should be commended by upper management) (+1star) The room upon arrival smelled clean and IS clean. We had a short stay here to visit the Athletic Trainer convention at the convention center. The layout of the 2 double beds was quaint and efficient. (+1 star) Surprised really The front desk staff every morning and evening was all smiles and very Friendly... (+1 star) they should be commended for being awesome! Breakfast was pretty good [Eggs, muffins, waffles, cold cereal, oatmeal, yogurt] The food/cleaning/maintenance staff all very friendly and accommodating (+2 stars) This hotel location is easy to find and surrounding area has quite a few food/entertainment options within a short walk away. (+1 star) I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable the beds were! Water pressure was good. We enjoyed the visit. We will return!! Respectfully, The Smiths
