The staff could not have been nicer - very pleasant, very helpful, very professional. However, when we walked into our room, 215, it reeked of smoke. We called the front desk; they took $10 off our room charge and said they'd bring something up while we were out to reduce the smell and acknowledged that the room used to be... more

This hotel is really worn/dated. It's time to just knock it down and start over. Being the only Marriott Rewards property in town, I booked a stay here for one night (had a client meeting in Dubuque). The hotel looks old. Very old. The white brick exterior is a drab, dull gray. Check-in was great. Staff is amazingly nice and... more

Do not stay at this hotel! The worst thing that happened was a theft from our room. My daughters' I pod touch was stolen from the room while we were away. When I told the first employee about it all she had to say was "How many people have you given your key to?" We had been at a softball... more

This review is written by a business travel who frequents Marriott and Hilton brand hotels throughout the world (primarily in the US). This review is based on a two-night stay in May 2009. Pros: - Relatively low price. - Across the streret from Target and Kennedy Mall (i.e. shopping, and some restaurants). - Good service from front-desk staff. - Curved... more

I have stayed at plenty of Fairfield Inns and typically they are fairly nice. This location is certainley not the nicest I have stayed at. Though, I must say the beds were clean and comfy - standard Marriot beds. There was a Hampton Inn down the road that looked nicer and newer than this hotel. more

This property is not a bad motel, but it needs to be refurbished on the outside. My room was small, but comfortable. The bathroom lighting leaves a lot to be desired, but the bedroom lighting was adequate. There was also some slight mold in the bathtub area, but not enough to make it feel unclean. The room was very clean,... more

I travel extensively, and frequently use Marriott properties. I normally avoid Fairfields, as I prefer their mid-range hotes (Residence Inns, Courtyards, etc) since they are often just slightly more per night but with more consistent rooms. Some cities have limited choices, as was the case at a recent stay. The room at the Fairfield in Dubuque was smaller than most... more

Watch what you room you get assigned to. The rooms that are closet to Highway 20 are very noisy in the morning especially with truck braking. Being an elite member, I assumed that I would not get the worst room but I did, and since it was late at night, I did not ask for another room. I just turned... more

During check-in there was a little confusion - the manager had to be called and then it was straightened out fairly quick. The hotel's appearance was clean & the pool area looked clean too. Our room was clean - a little on the musty side, so we opened the windows up for a few minutes and aired it out. No... more
