Fairfield Inn Kankakee Bourbonnais

So I must admit I was a little skeptical about staying here at first. I have stayed at some smaller hotels and the results were always a bit mixed. We needed a place to stay for Christmas Eve so we decided to pick this place. Even though there was no shopping going on because we were done it was nice to know that it was close to the mall and plenty of restaurants. When we came into the lobby we were promptly greeted by a very friendly young lady. The lobby was clean well organized and quite welcoming. She told us about all the amenities that came with the room which included free Internet free cable and access to the pool and hot tub. One thing I thought was really cool was that after 10 PM children weren’t allowed in the pool or hot tub so it’s adult time. (Aw snap!) The room was very clean and quite comfortable although it did have a slight smell of someone that had smoked in there before. The bathroom was also kept up and clean. I know that sounds like something minor but you may be surprised at how many bad bathrooms I have seen. About the only thing I can say that I did not like was that housekeeping knocked on the door at 9:30 AM. Our check out was at 12 PM and we requested a late check out to boot. They also came again around 11:15. That was a little annoying. Other than that the stay at the Fairfield was pretty good. Thumbs up!

Just Awesome !!! Super Clean !!! inside and out .
Modern and up to date rooms. Super friendly, super price, very nice «free breakfast Selection of food «couldn’t ask for anything better. When you call to make the reservation you actually speak to one of the front desk employees, instead of 1– 800 number.

This place is definitely one of the better hotels in the area…
Great notable customer service, very competitive prices (note the price varies depending on room availability on the day you stay, if you book that day). There’s a terrific decent sized updated complementary breakfast area. The rooms are clean and large with comfortable mattress and pillows, there’s a decent sized flatscreen TV, toiletries, in-​room coffee maker (the old drip kind), pretty much everything basic a traveler needs… with the exception of a fitness room… they only have a pool (if no fitness room is okay, then this is the place to stay)…
it’s a great place to stay and I recommend it, but bring your swimming suit instead of your exercise clothes.

I really appreciate the friendliness of the staff here, customer service is excellent and are always smiling =] I love that about Marriott hotels. The only thing I didn’t like is that there’s no workout facility, that’s one of the things I really look forward to when I’m traveling for business.

Great hotel love the location front desk super nice

Sorry Folks, while Marriott has some fine hotels, this Fairfield just doesn’t do it for me.
Fairfield Inn is the economy end of the Marriott family. I had a hard time warming up to it. Breakfast nook is tiny and limited to continental items (unless you count the damn waffle machine a hot breakfast). Room is narrow and is minimalistic, no fridge, no microwave. Hated the desk lamp I had to work with, it was worse than useless. Pool was this shitty litte wading pool. Ice and vending machine are all on the first floor (I was on the third). Finally, they decided to clean the carpets during my stay, which meant for at least one night, I had to stay in a room with soggy carpets.
All this for 110 bucks a night. The neighboring Comfort Suites would have been nicer at half the price.

Love this hotel! The updated décor and bed linens make it a great stay, and the free hot breakfast is an awesome bonus. Right next to Cracker Barrel and directly across from the mall and Hidden Cove Sports Complex (and a myriad of other things to do in Kankakee County, IL within walking distance… steps actually).
The indoor pool area is nice. I recommend signing up for the free Marriott Rewards program, you can get free nights and other offers… it’s one of the perks that keeps us coming back. (They also make you feel super special and put you on the welcome board if you’re a member :)

Very nice hotel. Doesnt have a work out facility though. Breakfast is decent. Rooms are nice. Felt like a nice and safe environment.
