What guests think

Across recent reviews, Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Edison - South Plainfield is often praised for clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a convenient, generally quiet location near highways and dining, offering solid value for short stays.

Multiple guests note the pool is closed for renovation and some renovation work has caused noise, dust, and minor disruptions. Room feedback varies, with several reports of loud HVAC units, occasional odors, dated fixtures, and uncomfortable sofa beds. Breakfast is generally appreciated for hot options and variety, though some found quality, stocking, or hours inconsistent. Expect a straightforward, comfortable stay with strong service and a few operational caveats.

Property was under renovation and i was not told at the time Of making the reservations. Very disappointed they put me on The floor with most of the work was taking place. Especially With tiles being jackhammered off. NOISE, DUST, UNSAFE WALKING CONDITIONS.

While the property is actively going under rennovations, it is not managing the process well. The first room I was given had standing water in the bathroom upon arrival, the second room didn't have the new light fixtures wired yet so they did not work. The lobby floor was half torn out so one couldn't roll the suitcases across it to the elevators and the remaining walk areas were covered with construction dust and debris.

The negatives: 1) The pool was closed for renovation -- would have been nice to know before packing the swimsuits and paying the high price. 2) We thought we were hearing trash dropping in the dumpster, loudly and over and over -- turns out that the metal framed beds made the noise every time you got in or out. Poor design! 3) The breakfast choices were decent, but the staff had a hard time keeping things stocked (esp. hot water for tea and the omelets), which lengthened the time needed. 4) adequate refrigerator but no microwave in the room. 5) Young soccer players running and playing in the halls; the call to desk yielded no response. Positives: Check-in (only time cookies were available). The location. The elevators.

Stay was okay. My feedback is as follows: -There was noise coming from room temperature controller unit, making it difficult to sleep. -Breakfast was fine. Peanut butter may be added. -It was difficult to find parking late at night. Number of spots for physically handicap guests are very limited. My wife has trouble walking and had to walk because there was no parking nearby. -Need water bottle filling station in the hotel premises. Filling water bottle from water fountain is not convenient and water is wasted. -Need night lamp in the room for easy and safer access to bathroom especially during night when it is completely dark in the room. -Hotel Cancellation policy needs review and revision. Once reservation was made, I was unable to cancel even though booking was cancellable without any charges two days prior to the date of my stay. Needs investigation. -My credit card was fully charged on the day of reservation, that was unexpected. Needs explanation. Looking forward to your action and response.

Per Expedia this hotel had a pool and hot tub. This is why I booked at this hotel, when arriving and checking in, we find the pool and hot tub are closed. I would have chosen a different hotel if I knew. Very disappointed with Expedia.

We booked this hotel specifically for the pool and hotel, it was not announced anywhere that the pool and hot tub were closed. Also, the room was super stuffy/moldy smelling and then the a/c was so very loud, it made it difficult to sleep. Then the guests upstairs were so loud, running, stomping, slamming doors, loud music all at 2am! I call and informed the front desk but to no avail. Our bathroom was so musty, had rust stains all over and the hot water was super slow to be heated up. We're not satisfied with our stay and feel like we were way overcharged for a poor quality hotel.

The area was average but the hotel itself is not very good. The rooms are outdated, the floors are taped down and the breakfast was not good. The eggs are freezer burned and the options are few. The fruit was super soggy as if they reused the same fruit for days. We just left and purchased breakfast outside the hotel. We wanted to warm some milk for the kids but there was no microwave in our room either. We’ve been to quite a few hotels in different states and this one was by far the worst by Marriot. That rating really needs to be updated.

I arrived, the manager was not friendly and told me that I had to pay a large deposit to stay at the hotel since reservation was paid through a third-party vendor. I explain to her that I have never paid that amount there it was always under a certain limit. Plus, a guest arrived at the same time I did, and they did not offer them the same policy as they did me. Very disappointed. As a manager I expected professionalism and friendly customer service. She did not amplify those characteristics and set a bad example on behalf of the hotel. So unethical, passage aggressive and unprofessional. She told me that they were going to cancel my reservation, and she did. I have not received anything refund from anyone at this time. However, I had to reserve another hotel using the third-party vendor and stayed at the Courtyard Marriot in Edison. Me and my grandchildren felt safe at the Courtyard, and we did not have to worry about hostile environment. I rate them a ZERO.

As soon as you walk into the lobby you can smell the cleanness in the air! That’s a plus for me. The staff at the front was so welcoming, especially Kesha, front desk supervisor! She was so sweet and so kind! Even called our room 15 minutes after checking in to make sure everything was good. Also the room itself was nice and clean. We stayed for a few nights, and housekeeping did a fabulous job every morning making sure our room was tidy when we came back. Only negative I have to honestly was the pool was a bit small, and the coffee could be better. But luckily there’s a Dunkins down the street!

Overall our stay was great :) The check-in agent was welcoming, efficient, and reminder me of the breakfast hours. The hotel was very clean with décor, a color scheme, fragrance and noise level appealing to the eyes, nose and ears. Breakfast buffet was appealing, plentiful and tasty. The "staff overall" was cordial and welcoming. Finally, there were some minor issues with furniture wear, the reason for the four stars instead of five. However, the two of us really enjoyed our stay at this location. Plus, we thought this was a jewel among places we have stayed in out travels along the way. Just saying :)
