Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Atlantic City Absecon

I’m not sure why the negative reviews about this hotel. The rooms were very clean, there were no smells, the staff was exceptionally friendly and kind. I did see outside a room door in the hall, paper plates that should have been thrown in the garage by the room occupants, not left for staff to clean up. Sometimes it is the occupants who make places appear unclean because of things like this. Every room has garbage cans and there are garbage cans in the hallways. This should not reflect on the overall quality of the hotel! Staff went above and beyond to insure our stay was nothing less then fantastic! We arrived just before midnight and did not have a reservation…mostly because of what I read in the reviews. I was met with the kindest gentleman (Patha) who understood my concerns and answer

Overall, it was fine. It’s probably the nicest hotel within a few miles. The price was good and overall, the room was fine for one night.

I liked my stay here since it was in a convenient location and the service was very good. It would not be the primary option if you are with kids, but for business meetings in the area of Atlantic City, it's a very good option. Breakfast is included and it has a Denny's right outside.

I stayed for a day to participate in the Atlantic City Marathon. I liked that it was on the outskirts of the city, so the surroundings weren't too busy. Having a diner right in front of the hotel was also great. The facilities were very clean, and the staff were friendly, which I appreciated. In particular, when I came back after the marathon, I needed to shower and change, so I requested a one-hour late check-out, and the hotel staff member kindly and readily accommodated my request. Although the hotel price felt a bit high because it was the weekend, it didn't feel like a waste of money at all. I was very satisfied.

Positive: Clean, roomy, nice, good breakfast. Very friendly staff. Negative: The bathroom has a hanging sliding door that is not secure at the bottom. It looks and feels shaky
