Fairfield Inn & Suites Lafayette South

I stayed here for 5 nights. While the hotel was clean as many note, my room had not been renovated. As such, there were stains on the furniture and carpeting, as well as marks on the walls and ceiling. The room had a separate bedroom which was great. One of the beds had a squeaky frame, so I slept on the other one. The toilet leaked and had to refill every 20 minutes, or so. The flushing mechanism was older and got hung up regularly if you didn't allow the reservoir to empty before releasing the handle. Small hairy bugs managed to find their way into the bathroom every other day which was a bit of a turn off. The AC worked fine, but was a bit noisy. The TV's were 32 inches, which is somewhat small by today's standards. The channel selection was limited. Some of the channels buffered frequently resulting in missed content. The breakfast was the typical scrambled eggs plus. The only fresh fruit offered were bananas. Traffic getting in and out of the parking lot was somewhat heavy. There were numerous restaurants close by. Lastly, my room adjoined with the one next door. The doors separating the rooms provided almost no soundproofing. Regrettably, this allowed me to hear the private conversations of my neighbors. As a result, I spent as much of my time as possible in the bedroom. I might stay here again just to see what the renovation accomplishes. All-in-all, I consider this property average.

The room was newly renovated and spacious. The free breakfast was great! Staff were helpful and gave recommendations for things to do. If it had been warmer out I might have loved to use the pool area outside. I had been hoping it use the hot tub but the water was not very hot and it was too cold out for that to be enjoyable. We were able to walk to a couple restaurants during our stay. Note though that as of Feb 2024 the rest of the third floor where we were was actively being renovated so the hall and elevator area had plaster dust and construction equipment. This didn’t bother us as the rest of the hotel and our room were spotless, but some people may not like it.

Parking lot dirty…landscaping a mess…cleanliness in the dining

Deux nuits sur place Hôtel un peu loin du centre ancien mais la chambre était grande avec un petit salon et une mini cuisine. Le long de la rivière, ce qui donne du charme à l'hôtel. La piscine était très agréable d'autant qu'à cette époque, j'étais seul dedans (19°C). Après une longue route, cela fait du bien. Pour manger, il suffit de faire 100m et il y a un restaurant Outback (bien pour des viandars). Il faut 25 minutes à pieds pour aller au "downtown". Très "secure" dans la journée.

Although the stay was nice, safe and clean, the mattress was the worst ever. It sunk in deeply in the center making for the MOST uncomfortable sleep we ever experienced in a hotel. That mattress should have been replaced a long time ago.

They are remodel front door and lobby. Didn’t bother our room staying. Breakfast are great.
