Fairfield Inn & Suites Laurel

New facility and is maintained well, with friendly front desk agents! Great value w nice breakfast area, good morning coffee. Clean and Hot Spa and pool! Ample parking in a convenient area off the interstate! This is a must stay along the Interstate near Billings!

I usually stay at Fairfield properties whenever possible because they are clean and professional and because many of them have complimentary breakfast. Their points program is extremely easy to use, unlike airlines. I usually do not review every Fairfield Inn stay because they are always the same: not exactly 5-star but never anything to complain about. Until now. I'm not sure why this particular property decided to dispense with clocks. The front desk tells me they expect people to use their smart phone to determine the time. This is crazy. First, not all of us have a smart phone. Second, many people in hotels have appointments in the morning and they need to get up on time, they sleep poorly because of any number of reasons, and they want a clock they can look at in the middle of the night when they can't sleep. They don't want to fumble around for their watch of their phone. A clock is important!

We staying at the Fairfield for one night on our way from Mt Rushmore to Spokane, WA. The location was a great stopping point. Although the hotel looks like it's just off the freeway but it took 10 minutes of round about turns through town to get to it. The room was clean and well appointed. There is a Walmart Super Center across the parking lot so it is super convenient to pick up any essentials for any road trips for a TV dinner.

My room was so clean that I wondered if I was the first to stay in it, honestly. The hotel overall is nice and in an easy to get to area with plenty of food and shopping around. The only thing I would say is they could do better with the laundry fees - the hotels in the area are already more expensive than expected and the laundry was $3.50 per load which was more than any hotel I stayed in so far as I’ve been doing coin laundry this whole trip.
