    Newer well maintained hotel property. Close to the Toll Road access. Style and design is purposeful casual modern decor -- including a large pool table in the lobby. The main welcome center doubles as registration and food concession sales. The lobby is large and sectioned off with several gathering spaces to visit with family and other guests. This space doubles as the dining area for the robust complimentary breakfast. Rooms are also modern with a hint of IKEA furnishings and design. Bedding was comfortable and showers are step in style. No microwave in room but a small dorm room size fridge is tucked creatively away. We will try and stay here again for future Michiana visits.

    The person checking me in was super friendly. + The hotel was very clean and all employees wore masks. + The bed was very comfortable and the sheets soft. + The water pressure was good. + Parking was plentiful. + They had a hot breakfast that you assemble yourself which was very nice and pretty tasty. The reasons for the 3 stars: - I booked a room with one bed and when I got there, they had given them all away, leaving only rooms with 2 beds. - There was no body wash, in its place was body lotion in the shower? - The TV remote was flakey, sometimes working and other times not. Almost leaving me to not being able to turn it off since there was no manual button. - The check out girl was rude upon listening to my concerns and such.

    I come to Elkhart on business. I have a number of customers in the area so I spend a few days. This…read moretime the Courtyard across the parking lot was full and a bit pricey. That's is my go to. But I couldn't go to. This had good reviews on the Bonvoy Marriott app. So I booked it. First impression on the room is it's older. Not bad but definitely older. The room is a 2 queen room. I like the extra bed to put stuff on. And it's bigger. Bathroom is older too. First issue was the toilet seat was loose. Really loose. Called the front desk and in the middle of the call the phone cord on the nightstand phone separated and I couldn't continue to talk. So I put the phone back together and called again. About 4 mins later Caleb came up. He saw the toilet and needed a screw driver to fix. He came back about 15 mins later and fixed the toilet seat. Also the shower head is wonky but I didn't notice that till I took a shower. So clearly maintenance needs to be done. And lastly under the fridge the wood is destroyed. Not sure what that is but I am not opening up the fridge. Otherwise it's a typical Fairfield, LOl! It's clean for the most part. Staff is fine. It's fine for a few nights. Next time I'm going back to the courtyard.

    I was pleasantly surprised! It must be at least 20 years…read moresince I stayed at a Fairfield Inn. My memories of rooms that you enter from the street have been shattered. This hotel was fairly new with a great lobby and friendly staff. It's far enough away from the interstate to assure quiet. It could easily pass for a newer Courtyard. Large rooms and large restrooms. Time for me to reconsider the brand.

    Mercy, I don't know where to even begin... I called ahead and told the lady ( who is a supervisor)…read moreAngela that we are late arrivals and won't be there til early morning. We drove 17 hours to get here. We arrived in the middle of the morning to find out that she didn't put the notes about our late arrival in the system so they canceled the reservation without even contacting us..... We had to go in after a long drive and redo the reservation. This place is outrageous with zero amenities! We got food poisoning from the unseasoned breakfast. I asked for a side of biscuits and gravy and it was so hard with burnt gravy. When I told the server she mentioned that she knew it was like that and took it off our bill. They want $17.00 for the breakfast buffet and $7.00 for latte...I have never been to a hotel that doesn't have free juice and coffee with breakfast! Don't bother with the bland over priced dinners! The rooms do not have microwaves either. The quality for price just isn't there ! Especially for a Hilton hotel at $200.00 a night as Diamond members! That doesn't include the $15.00 extra a night for the parking. The rooms are dimly lit unless it's a sunny day and you completely open the window blinds. The double queen rooms have a weird layout and uncomfortable beds. The only good thing was our rooms were clean. If you are going to spend this much on a hotel then go somewhere that you can at least get a comfortable night of sleep. Last but not least, We kept getting stuck in the elevator! The doors close and you have to hit for floor number over and over to try and get it to actually go to the floor! That doesn't seem safe at all and they need to have that fixed before someone gets hurt! I definitely recommend staying somewhere else. **The ONLY reason I changed this to a 3 star is because of Ocean at the Elkhart Hotel's Corner Bar! Ocean made the last night of my horrible trip into a night of good laughs and even better drinks! Ocean is a top tier mixologist that makes these stunning and delicious drinks based on her costumer's preferences! From the fresh Brazilian Mojito to the relaxing Butterfly Lemonade, she is THE BEST in the industry! Ocean has this personality that makes you comfortable and want to stay until closing. They do have another bartender Chris who reminded me of a golden retriever haha. He was hyper, had the zoomies, and made insanely strong drinks! Kerri was sweet and has great customer service. Ocean was the saving grace of this establishment!**

It would definitely stay here again. Water was a bit over softened and made it hard to remove soap when washing. Brand of their products was ZERO/° or something similar. I could not find the ingredients listed on the bottle or online. Other than that it was a very nice experience.

    Extremely disappointed. Needed and reserved ada room with walkin shower.... got a bathtub so…read moreslippery there was no way I dared get off the shower seat they brought. I had to do a "sponge bath" of my whole body, skipped hair because no way to keep the water from flooding the room. Supposed to clean room every other day, but skipped our day 2 cleaning.... phone doesn't work... but its Sunday late afternoon and maintenance will "check it tomorrow". We had reserved a handicap suite but when we got here they didn't have one. After a long wait, they finally found this one with a tub. Soap pumps were mounted on the wall... higher than I could reach while standing on tip toe.. no way could anyone in a wheelchair reach them. This was a two room suite so bathroom had two doors...one of which had this strange recessed "opener/ closer mechanism" that a disabled person wouldn't be able to use or figure out. There were about 40? rooms on a floor... with the elevator at one end and the stairs at the other end. Took forever took walk the long hall to get to our room #x25. And remember... I am disabled.. shouldn't disabled rooms be near the elevator. And speaking of the hallway... there were lots of the glued rug tiles that were unglued on the edges and corners. Very much a tripping hazard! The floors were terribly slippery where they'd gotten wet from either the pool customers or having been cleaned. I actually slipped a couple of times... they need to either monitor these areas and dry them frequently, or at least designate a non pool elevator and not leave freshly cleaned areas so wet. Also disturbing that no maintenance person available 24 hours. Not everyone has a cell phone, and what if some other serious problem happens in a room. Lamp shade was missing on lamp in sitting room. So all in all, I'd never return to this hotel. And will look very askance at any other of this brand. No lid on the toilet... wide open... so the flush sprayed contents throughout the room.

    You get what you pay for. Repeat that to yourself if you choose to book this location. Yes, it's…read morecheap, but there's a reason for it. The check in process was more difficult than expected, considering the room was booked online and already paid for. Of course, they wanted a credit card for "incidentals" as though there were a mini-bar or in case I decided to make any long distance calls on their phone rather than use my cell phone. Regardless, it's policy, so I get it. You never know who is going to try to walk off with the worn bedding. Ok, so where do we begin? The second floor hallway is NOT climate controlled, so it was hot and muggy, and smelled like wet dog mixed with last week's stale weed smoke. It's also dark and aged, with flaking paint and plaster. I can't even venture a guess the last time the carpet was cleaned or shampooed. While preparing to settle in, I took my shoes off and walked around in socks, which ended up getting dirty from whatever had built up on the carpet in my room. The bathroom is dimly lit, I'm guessing the vanity sports a single 25-watt bulb to shave by, and that's the ONLY light in the bathroom. Shower temperature was good, but the pressure was dismal. My hair is only 2" long, and the pressure had a hard time washing the shampoo out of it. Towels were old, stained and ratty. The only "large" one covers either part of my front or part of my back. It's not big enough to get both at the same time. One washcloth had black stains on it and the other one was see-through thin. The toilet wobbled and lurched much like a mechanical bull when used. If I had a tool kit, I would have tightened the bolts and put a bead of caulk around the base to stiffen the ride, but I don't have them with me. Sorry. When I showered, I closed the bathroom door to prevent the possibility of steam setting off the smoke alarm (conveniently placed right outside the bathroom door for some reason) and found a soiled pair of women's panties hanging from the doorknob. (after the shower, I subsequently pinched a corner to lift them and brought them to the front desk. The clerk merely grinned and took possession of them. I hope they fit him). There IS a mini-fridge with freezer. I did them a favor by unplugging it so I could defrost the 2" layer of ice in it, while affording myself some quiet to sleep. The air conditioner is an old window unit that provides plenty of white noise to mask the ruckus outside the hotel, especially after the other tenants have had a few beers, but still isn't enough to mask the slamming doors and arguing from the hallway that continues well into the night. Breakfast is a choice between a bagel, cold cereal, a mini-muffin or a container of Activa yogurt. Thankfully, there's a McDonald's up the road. Just keep repeating "You get what you pay for" or spend a few extra bucks for a better quality chain hotel.
