Fairfield Inn by Marriott

I want to thank everyone at this hotel for the exceptional customer service and hospitality I received during my recent stay, especially a gentleman at the front desk named Ian who was the kindest and most amazing out of the bunch. Thank you Ian for not only making my trip a pleasant one, but for also making sure that I was able to get to the airport on time for my return flight home. Nice hotel, incredible staff and conveniently located. Definitely a «5 Star» Unilocal experience.

Located off The Jericho Turnpike and was very convenient for our family get-​together on Long Island. The desk staff was courteous and efficient and the room was spotless if a bit small. The bed was comfortable. The downside of the hotel was parking was a bit cramped.

This update is long, long, LONG overdue! I’ve been coming to this hotel for over a year now, and the changes I’ve seen are absolutely incredible. The staff has never needed updating — they are friendly, helpful, professional, and personable. If I wasn’t drowning in work every time I stayed here, I would shoot the sh! t with them all day. They are eager to please their guests and want to make sure that each and every person staying at their hotel feels at home. That’s what everyone wants when they are away from their actual home, no?!
The «motel» atmosphere that this Fairfield Inn had is now a thing of the past. They recently renovated the entire interior of the building. The hallways have been upgraded with new wallpaper, carpeting, and paint; the rooms look modern and comfortable; and the lobby is classy and inviting upon entering the building. The 1-​star review that I gave them is where they started when I first stayed with them, but this entire hotel has come leaps and bounds in just over a year.
What they mastered in customer service, they have now captured in the appearance and aesthetic of the entire hotel — warm, welcoming, and higher standards than the average hotel.

A great little utility hotel on the North Shore of Long Island near the Nassau/​Suffolk border. Nice lobby, good breakfast, clean, great staff. Free wi-​fi and parking. Near the Syosset hospital. If you need to spend a night or two on Long Island and don’t want to spend a fortune, this is your place.

Clean hotel, and nice lobby. I booked a block of rooms here for my wedding, and the management was extremely friendly and helpful. I have nothing but positive things to say about our dealings with them. The reason for only 4 stars is that the rooms are quite small, and the parking is very limited.

Everything was pretty fine with my stay. The front desk lady was nice, got us a room last minute without any problems. The room was pretty small. I was expecting something a little larger for the price. I have stayed in hotels in the city that are the same price as this hotel.
But that was not the problem…
After I got home, I unpacked my stuff and then BAM, a cockroach fell out of one of my shirts. Freaking. Gross. I mean seriously! C’mon! I had the heebie jeebies for a little while till i flushed that sucker down the toilet.
I know that little bugger came from the hotel because that’s the only place I went with my bag.
At least they had free wi-​fi…

I think I’m in the same room as the reviewer «Ed O.» from 9÷27÷12. Its 3÷6÷2013 and this room is no better. In fact, I’m surprised he didn’t mention how thin the walls are. I can actually hear the guy next door talking on the phone to his friend. I mean I can hear every word. I think I can even hear his friend’s responses back to him.
Take a wild guess how much I’m paying for this place. You would think a roach motel room like this would be under $ 100, right? Wrong, $ 160. If you see the lobby you feel like you are gonna get your monies worth. Once you get to this room it’s like walking into the twilight zone. Maybe not all the rooms are like this, but I’m not too sure.
I don’t know if there are bedbugs but I’m putting my suitcase in the bathtub anyway.

Lived in Syosset since the early 70s. Have had family stay here many times. Now, when I came back to 11 791 for a visit in late September, I learned — to my chagrin — what I put them all through!
Read all the other reviews and it seems like we stayed in a different hotel. But, alas, not so.
This Fairfield Inn has to be one of the worst such properties I’ve ever stayed at. While the lobby area is large, well lit and seems very nice, the positive experience ends there.
The room, for the $$$ price, is so tiny there was no place to put a suitcase to unpack, other than on the bed. Of course, there was no furniture, other than the TV armoire, in which to place your clothes because none would fit into the room! Literally two people cannot walk together any place in the room. Single file only!
The room was dark, the light bulbs seemed to be 15-​watters to save some money. The smoke alarm was dangling from a dinghy ceiling badly in need of a paint job. The bathroom light could only be turned on when the incredibly noisy exhaust fan was engaged (single switch) and the shower needed a major grout cleaning to remove the mold growing in the tile. The closet had too few hangers, and a few of them actually came apart in our hands as we placed slacks on them.
While you can probably find better mattresses at a Super 8, the low points were well-​worn sheets, cheap polyester blankets (that were used God knows where) and pillow so poor and so unsupportive you need not bothered to use them. I’m mystified by other reviewers emphasizing the cleanliness of this place as the two nights we were there I awaited the bedbug attacks.
This is clearly a property where the ownership has decided to maximize its cash-​take and harvest maximum profit, without making either the capital or maintenance investments necessary to maintain a quality property.
The only reason I’m not giving this dump 1-​star is the staff is very friendly, accommodating and helpful. It’s not their fault their consigned to this place.

Rooms are small but the service is great. One of the best run Fairfield’s that I’ve been to. Awesome saltwater fishtanks in the lobby.

I stayed here in July. I thought it was a bit pricey for the 3 days but I needed to be in that particular area. The hotel is immaculate. That is its best feature and worth a lot to me. The view from the window onto a tire business and a couple of shanty-​looking buildings was a bit depressing. The parking situation is also a bit weird, as there are only a few spots in the front and back. You have to either park on the street or in the tire lot (only overnight though). The breakfast was ok, but filling. There is a nice diner a couple of blocks down and other places to eat nearby. Very quiet. Friendly staff.

Nice stay. Very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful.

I am originally from Syosset NY and this particular Fairfield Inn was converted from an Elderly Home in the mid 90’s. This accounts for why the rooms are on the smaller side but also why the hotel is so clean as well. Everything is in working order from the quick elevator ride to the room amenities and especially the shower which lasts a while.
When I grew up on LI I always knew it was expensive to live there but for some reason I never thought it was also expensive to visit. Now on making my first trip back with no where to stay but a hotel I can tell you, it is expensive to visit. I went through many pages on
,
and orbitz before coming back to Fairfield Inn. On many websites this hotel receives 2.5 stars. However if all you are doing is sleeping there and not too worried about the amenities this is a great hotel for you.
I paid $ 103/​night with my AAA card including tax. The hotel down in Westbury was $ 140, in Hicksville was $ 110, in Woodbury was $ 145 and in Jericho $ 150. So for being in and around Syosset easily this was a bargain.
It was raining and I wanted to walk to Friendly’s, so the desk clerk gave me her own umbrella. For that nice helpful and pleasant service alone I would go back. Small things really make you remember the big savings.

Nice and clean. Little bit on the high side money wise.

PROS: Very clean hotel. Had a LCD widescreen in room with VGA hookup for laptop, wireless, etc. Room had new furniture. Bathroom was spotless. Room was very small, but quiet. The road this hotel was on had plenty of places to eat. Hotel is close to highways, but far enough away to be very quiet as well.
CONS: Parking wasn’t good. The tiny front lot was full, the rear lot was tucked behind the building with no access to inside. A sign on the curb says «Extra parking at the auto garage across the street from 6pm — 9am». Coming in at night, the doors out front were locked and I had to be buzzed in. Unusual for being in a suburb (outside city). This made me worry about my vehicle being safe.
I SAY: This Fairfield Inn was clean, quiet, and affordable… but not good for parking.

My husband, son and I stayed here one night while we attended a wedding at the Woodbury Country Club, which is just a stone’s throw away. We found ample parking because there is also a back lot (without pillars), free on-​street parking in front of hotel (safe) and the business located across the street also allows hotel guests to park for free until 9 a.m. the next morning.
We were greeted cordially and attentively at the front desk. We had a king-​size bed and had requested a roll-​away bed for our son to crash in. The room wasn’t large but perfectly fine for short stay. More important, it was very clean, the bathroom was a good size with a large spray shower head. Pantene shampoo/​conditioner was nice touch. The bed was very comfortable and the blanket and coverlet was also spotless. We were on a corner room so it was very quiet. The room décor was spartan but there were plenty of attractive paintings of seafaring’ things lining the hallways. Ice and soda vending machine were located one floor below us.
I would definitely stay here again.
Free breakfast was in an area right off the lobby accented by a beautiful saltwater tank of fish. A few flat-​screens were mounted around so we could watch the news while we ate. We could make ourselves a hot waffle or microwave a James Dean sausage, egg and cheese sandwich. There was also hard-​boiled eggs, juice, yogurt, cereal – plenty of good eats to fortify ourselves for our drive back to Jersey.

Basic and clean. You could do a lot worse. My room is very small but at least the bathroom is decent sized. The water pressure in the shower is quite good (which is one of my key hotel evaluation criteria). The continental breakfast in the lobby I would give a C. The waffle was half decent. The coffee was average at best. Pretty standard stuff. Parking lot is very cramped with only one way on and out and lots of pillars to bang your rental car into! Free wireless is nice. Easy to find, close to LIE.

I moved here after a horrible visit at the FF Inn by JFK two weeks ago and I decided to stay here again now for 4 nights. The room I had last week was a Queen with an outdoor deck (room 227) and this visit I am in a King room on the 3^rd floor. The rooms are very comfortable and although the décor looks a bit dated (other than the flat screen tv) everything is very well kept.
The eating area/​lounge when you first walk in is gorgeous and the staff here is very friendly! If you are looking for a place to stay in Northern Long Island the Fairfield Inn Syosett should be on your list!
