Spouse and I are big fans of the Tru brand and planned for several months to stay at this location…read moreon an overnight visit to Saint Joseph & wine country. The ratings here are not believable. When we turned down our beds to go to sleep, our sheets on both of the queen beds in our room were covered in other people's hair and there was sand and dirt down at the foot of the beds inside the sheets as well. It was disgusting and a big shock to find. We immediately reported this to the front desk, and the staff told us dirty sheets going unchanged between guests was an ongoing issue that management knows about but has been unable to successfully address with their housekeeping staff. (In fact, an hour before we reported our issue, we witnessed another guest at the front desk complaining about finding unexpected hair and dirt in their room as well.) We were changed to the one remaining room at the property, and front desk staff came up to inspect the sheets with us before they gave us the keys. But if there had not been a room left, or if those sheets had been dirty as well, we would have been forced to look for an available room on a busy summer Saturday night at nearly midnight in rural Michigan, or get in our car and drive two hours overnight back home. We reported the issue to Hilton corporate, requested that Hilton investigate the franchisee for knowingly breaking core Hilton sanitary practices, and requested a full refund of the cash and points we had spent for that night's reservation. This is clearly an identified and repeating issue with this property and needs to be addressed. (I fully believe reviews from more than a year ago from people who found urine stains on their toilet seat.) If you choose to stay here, you probably should check your bedsheets the moment you get access to your room. But we'll never stay here again, and I really don't suggest you do either.

We had a enjoyable time at this hotel. We were traveling with our dog and needed to stay at a place…read morethat was friendly and accommodating. In addition, we wanted to use our credit card points so our selections for this weekend were slim but overall this checked all the boxes. What went well was that our room was quiet. There was 24/7 coffee/tea available in the lobby. the space to walk the dog was really nice as there were two locations on either side of the buildings. Additionally enjoyed the set up of the room and the amenities such as the body wash and the hand soap. There is some room for improvement at this location in regards to breakfast items. It was very continental and really didn't do the trick however we were able to enjoy bagels, toast, hard boiled egg and they did have a few varieties of fresh fruit. In particular, I wasn't really a fan of the pancake machine and the traditional waffle iron would be much more hardy and suitable. Overall, no major problems with our room however, the TV system is unique and sometimes it works, and sometimes it didn't often to look at Pluto versus even accessing the live channels as their entertainment system is kind of finicky. Additionally, the lotion dispenser in our room did not work, and I really wanted to try the lotion as I thought the fragrance for the body wash and hand Soap was very pleasant. Lastly, the workers at this hotel are just not very friendly. They're not rude. They're just not hospitable and that was evident from the front desk to the breakfast attendance to the maintenance person. They just were not very friendly or engaging at overall. If in this area again, I would stay at this hotel if the price point was right. overall it was a good value and close to St. Joseph while having the charm of Stevensville.

The next morning my daughter asked what happened when she pulled back the covers it looked like dried up pee stains or I don't know what kind of stain to be honest. I do have pictures of it. And one of my wash clothes I used smelled like cum. Just a disgusting room. To think I checked into a dirty room and payed almost $800 for a three day stay in an unclean room just made me so mad. I will probably never stay at another Fairfield. The way they handled it at the front was even more disappointing. The head of house keeping didn't even apologize, actually...no one apologized, except for Arika the following day. Housekeeping came in and when she saw it, she said, "oops" I said that's more than an "oops" she then proceeded to start putting a sheet on top of the mattress cover. I said, I'd like the mattress cover changed as well and she walked away then the front desk called and asked for me to leave the room while they changed things. I wasn't about to leave the room because I wanted to make sure everything was changed properly before I lay down to sleep at night. Then when she was done, she threw the pillows back on and I said can you please change the pillowcases and by this point, the head of housekeeping had come down. And then she came in and started changing the bed angrily and fast and when she left, she said "I have a blessed day" that was so passive aggressive, I know what that means. No one ever once apologized even when she was in the room she didn't say I'm sorry that your room was not stripped and cleaned. I think the icing on the cake was when I had a washcloth that none of the other towels smelled weird this one smelled like semen. Unacceptable! I do have pictures of everything too.

Service, as people have said, was absolutely fantastic and incredibly accommodating, so I would recommend it IF you know what to expect going in, which is what you'd imagine from the price but with great service and a well-loved family business atmosphere.
