What guests think

At Fairfield Inn & Suites Houston Hobby Airport, travelers often praise the convenient location near Hobby Airport, generally clean rooms, and friendly staff, but note recurring maintenance problems, inconsistent breakfast availability, and lapses in front-desk responsiveness and overall upkeep.

Multiple guests report freeway and airplane noise, musty odors in some areas, and an aging property feel. The indoor pool and certain amenities were at times closed or poorly maintained, and elevator or ice machine outages occurred. Several reviews mention unexpected deposits, billing issues, or unattended check-in. Expect a convenient, budget-friendly stopover with variable experiences depending on timing and room.

Nice hotel, good shopping available as well as eating establishments. Room was clean which I liked. I thought the room was big enough to have a couch added. Parking was good! Only drawback is know that you are near the airport and the planes start landing around 6am...so there will be no sleeping in. Otherwise good place to stay.

First let me point out that we were informed upon our arrival that this property was being transitioned to a new owner which might explain some of my comments below. 1. Upon arrival the receptionist informed us that we did have a reservation for a king size bed however, no king size bed was available. We had to settle for two queen beds. 2. No breakfast was available as they were waiting for a city health inspection. 3. The property was "tired" and somewhat dated. Rooms were rather small for a Fairfield property, bathroom was also small and had paper thin towels, limited toiletries, no Kleenex, etc. This property is far from being a Fairfield type of property. Needs many improvements before it gets to that caliber of brand that we are accustomed to. Property had indoor pool but no patio area to sit outside. Overall, not a property that I can recommend. To many other options in the area.

The hotel elevator was out of order my whole trip. My room was on the 4th floor . THE TOWELS WERE DIRTY UPON ARRIVAL. I tried to reach out to the hotel manager via email and they wouldn't respond . THEY ADVERTISE BREAKFAST AND THERE IS NO BREAKFAST. I WAS TOLD TO GO ACROSS TO THE OTHER HOTEL AND BASICALLY STEAL THEIR FREE BREAKFAST. DO NOT STAY HERE!!

When we checked in, the desk staff was not very friendly. She barely spoke to us and didn't look at us at all. During our stay, the "Corner Market" was never restocked so there weren't many options available. The pool was also closed during our entire stay (four nights). In our room, the fan in the bathroom didn't work. We had two tv's in our room and only one of them worked. One would turn on and we'd see the input and volume level but then nothing but a black screen. The remote for that tv wouldn't work and neither would the buttons on the side of the tv. The breakfast options were limited: the eggs were rubbery and the toast was stale. When things ran out, the staff was slow to restock it.

Only 1 elevator and it was broken for 2 days of our 4 day stay. We were on the 4th floor with 2 small children making hauling our luggage extremely difficult. Requested housekeeping on our 2nd day and they never came. Breakfast was hot and good. Pool was cold and unheated

An ageing hotel, requiring uplift. Locationwise great - closer to the airport and within 10 miles to the downtown. Breakfast arrangement was subpar, and not of Marriott standards. TV never worked, may be because of internet issues.

Paid in full online through Expedia. Upon trying to check in, the front desk said there would be an additional deposit charged since we used a 3rd party. The associate said if we wanted to cancel, we would need to request a refund through Expedia. We contacted Expedia immediately and they were told by the front desk, that the manager, Merna, was not in and she was the only one who could approve the refund to Expedia. 3 days later, we received a message that the refund was declined by the hotel! Total rip off!

ROXY was AMAZING!!! We had to switch hotels due to mold and mildew and we booked Double room. When we arrived she let us know that there were no more available. She put us in the king suite without upcharginh is from what we had already paid. Management was amazing during the hurricane and tropical storm. They talked with us and kept us up to date on everything. They worked hard to keep the lobby cool whole everyone was burning up from the heat. If I ever come back I will stay here again.

I received an email the morning of my stay, allowing me to request an early check-in. We were coming directly from a cruise with all our luggage so I thought it was perfect and requested the time. Upon our arrival, we were told there were NO early check-ins and that we could leave our luggage out in the main lobby next to the desk (not even behind it) for FIVE HOURS. Also, when we arrived, the desk was unattended during breakfast hours as people were walking in and out of the lobby and building. Furthermore, there is nothing in reasonable walking distance. If an early check-in was unavailable, the option should not have been given, or at least an immediate contact should have been made to let us know that the request would not be able to be fulfilled. Besides that, the stay was typical/fine.

Never checked in. Waited in lobby last night for over 15 - 20 minutes and no one ever showed up. Lobby was so loud with other customers that I couldn't think. Tired from flying and driving 40 minutes to the hotel to not be able to check in. Went down the road to another Marriott property and checked right in. I would tell Marriott to take the Marriott franchise from them. Even went to off by the desk amd saw thier bad ratings. Now I understand why. Please do not change me for last night. I will dispute it. And if were Expedia I sure wouldn't offer them anymore. Laurie Young

The hotel itself was fine, except it advertised hot breakfast and they didn't have any at all. We had to get breakfast from the sister hotel next door and it was just continental breakfast and whenever I went there was really nothing to choose from. If they did not have hot breakfast as stated, they should have offered a discount. I was there for a week and was expecting that breakfast and had to spend additional money due to the lack thereof. That's my only complaint.

Hotel was clean. However, I was highly upset with breakfast. Fairfield Inn only serve pork sausage. Not everyone eat pork sausage and it is against some people religion. I made a complaint about it to the front desk manager because it's not fair I'm paying my money to stay there with breakfast included and I'm not even able to eat a piece of meat for their hot breakfast because all they had was pork sausage. There should be at least two selections of meat. Turkey sausage pork sausage or turkey bacon and pork bacon. Not just one selection of meat. The hotel makes too much money to only have one unhealthy selection of meat (Pork Sausage) for breakfast. Furthermore, I was highly upset I had to wait 4 hours for them to unclog our toilet.

Some of the amenities were not available as described in Expedia. Byron, Roxie and Jazmine were awesome at the front desk. Housekeeping staff were friendly and helpful.
