Fyi

Location was great. Hotel is dirty, bathroom had hair and dirt in every corner. People friendly which was nice.
Mary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It did what it was supposed to do but wouldn’t stay there again. I guess $100 a night is the bare minimum in today’s economy.

Rosa, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

For the price, this an excellent choice to stay at Fairbridge Inn. We absolutely recommend this place because the staff, especially Debbie is very friendly and is always willing to help with anything you might need. She is one of the biggest reasons why we chose to come back there multiple times, when we’ve needed a place to stay. We like the fact too that it’s a very safe place and again, for the price the room and accommodations are affordable, clean and comfortable. This is our go to place whenever we’ve needed a place to stay. Big thanks to Debbie and the owners and staff for making every stay a great experience for us and our cat.

4/10 Fair

Expect the bare minimum

The only thing that was great was that the a/c worked wonderfully. There was no cable, the toilet stopped flushing, there were holes in one of the layers of blankets, we found corona bottle caps in the bed as well. It's just cosmetic but we noticed that the lampshades were stained too.
Holes in the blanket

We had a really good stay. Debbie was awesome, plus the owners were great. I would stay there again.

It was a good hotel for the price. AC was super loud though and the beds are very uncomfortable.
