Fairfield Inn & Suites Albuquerque North

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights during the Balloon Fiesta. The hotel offered to-go breakfast early on Friday, Saturday mornings of the Fiesta for those who were headed to the morning session. Food for breakfast was varied with gluten free and dairy free options. We had a car, and hotel was centrally located for getting around Albuquerque. We stayed at room 311, and we were able to see the balloons after a morning ascension. Would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Albuquerque.

Terrible experience, rooms weren't clean, shampoo and shower gel containers empty, just one set of towels, only one elevator working and did not ofered the amenities for my marriot rewards gold level status (water, snack and upgrde). BEWARE: THEY DON'T CLEAN YOUR ROOM IF YOU STAY IS NOT FOR 3 DAYS OR MORE (REGARDLESS OF ROOMS GIVEN NOT CLEANED), AND THAT IS NOT INFORMED PROPERLY ON CONFIRMATION EMAIL OR AT THE CHECK IN WHICH I ASSUME IT'S MANDATORY THE CLIENT SHOULD HAVE THE POSIBILITY TO CANCEL OR DECLINE FOR THE LACK OF HOUSEKEEPING SERVICE. I DEFINITELY DO NOT THINK MARRIOTT IS AWARE OF THIS!! The attitude of the front desk personnel and management hostile and rude to me, they were upset because my complaints.

This was our second time staying here. We stayed here previously about two years ago when we passed through area, and we decided to stay again as we were passing through again. This is a typical Fairfield experience. The room was clean, and we had no complaints. There are restaurants within walking distance.

After an extremely long day of stressful driving and getting stuck on hwy 25, delaying our arrival by 2 hours, we were met by front desk staff. They were great! Very kind and let Me know my extra blanket was already in the room. GM Erin Rogers must be a good boss because all staff we encountered were so pleasant and everything at the hotel was so comforting. The beds are very comfortable and we like the larger pillows that are also soft. The lighting in the bathroom is nice with the two brightness options. Water pressure great and towels nice. We’ve stayed here a few times now and have had good experiences. The only thing I would have preferred was to be away from elevators and ice machine on the top floor which I requested when I booked. I’m sure if I would have called they would have handled it. Breakfast has nice options and we will be back again! Thank you staff! You may not realize how nice it is for travelers to have such nice friendly staff and nice amenities at a price we can afford.

Our family stayed at this hotel, because we needed to be near the airport. The room and common places were very clean and comfortable. Nothing looked worn or dated. The staff was friendly and smiled at people. They even had cookies at the front desk. However, the breakfast was unusually good for this tier of hotel. Some of this is due to an employee named Isabel. She doesn’t know I am writing this review. She is one of those people who does her job with pride. No one really notices her, yet, without her your breakfast would not be very good. And complimentary breakfast is one of the highlights for most travelers. The breakfast area was spotless, and the food was constantly being replenished. She was constantly checking to make sure all was going smoothly. I want management to know how lucky they are to have an employee like this. Most complimentary breakfasts are not nearly this nice.

The photos of this hotel are not recent, and it does show quite a bit of wear and tear. The quality feels more on par with a Super 8 than Fairfields we've stayed at. Just sort of a meh stay. Pros: ~Location, great restaurants around ~ Good water pressure in the shower ~ Bed was comfortable Cons: ~Our room was next to the stairwell, and the loud sounds of children running up and down the stairs went on until 11 pm. ~Very hot room, did not cool down to have a good sleep ~ Random **** smells in the night ~Breakfast was bad (the toaster couldn't even toast!) , and the breakfast sitting area was dirty. ~ Staff was not friendly, and didn't say maybe more than one sentence to us. ~ Parking is hard because trucks take up multiple spots, and restaurants fill up late at night There is a review from 2022 a few down where this hotel confirms that it does not like locals staying. If we had read this review before booking, we would not have booked.

We enjoyed our overnight stay at this fairly new Fairfield Inn. Very friendly, welcoming staff at check-in. Spotless room with comfortable bed and pillows. A nice breakfast the next morning with many choices available: waffles, scrambled eggs, sausage, oatmeal bar, cold cereals, muffins and bagels, juices and yogurts, and coffee/tea bar. Tables were cleaned quickly after guests left. A couple of restaurants were within walking distance for dinner the evening we checked in. We will definitely stay here the next time we're traveling through Albuquerque.

Our room was clean enough, I guess, but showing a lot of wear and tear. Stained drapes, beat up walls and furniture, broken and missing grout in the bathroom, funky bathroom corners that have collected way too much dirt and debris. This was a disappointment and a miss for us. I wish that I had read more reviews before booking. Even on the hotel’s website if I had scrolled through a few dozen more reviews I’d have seen several that mentioned the wear and tear and I would have booked elsewhere. Wouldn’t book here again.

Good location near freeway. Nice room and bath. Unfortunately the breakfast had cold eggs, cold sausage, despite just coming from kitchen onto the heated serving pans. The bacon was a smokey rubber band. Some chairs & tables were higher than regular but shorter than bar high. Those chairs had hard frames that cut behind thighs. Other seating/tables were also less than comfortable. Overall, most of the breakfast areas was unsittable. The breakfast attendant was very pleasant and attentive but that didn't really help make the experience much better.. I've stayed at probably a hundred or more Fairfield's in my 40-50 years of travel and this was the strangest in how it just missed the mark in such inexplicable ways. Yet, it was OK. Maybe it's just the area.
