Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Los Angeles LAX/El Segundo

Great motel if you are flying out of LAX. This is my second stay here, and I will probably continue to use this motel on my trips out of LAX.

The Fairfield is a no-frills hotel with helpful staff, comfy big rooms, and very reliable airport shuttle, which runs every 30 minutes.   The breakfast is OK, though the scrambled eggs are made from some formulaic powder, not from real eggs.   I would prefer an option for real eggs, like hard-boiled eggs, and more fruit and salads.   Also, heavy on sausages, bacon and sugary foods.   If you just want to spend one night before your trip to LAX airport, the Fairfield will get you there on time! 

Where should I start? I arrived around 8:30pm, I called the hotel for the shuttle and it arrived at my terminal in 15minutes, the driver was very friendly and welcoming, I knew I had started my stay on a beautiful tone not until I actually arrived at the property, first of all they don't have concierge services, I guess all Fairfield don't, I had 3 suitcases that I had to carry in the hotel and to my room, check in was very quick. Reached my room and it wasn't exactly what I booked for which wouldn't have been a problem if the room I was assigned to didn't smell like piss. I called the front desk and they boldly told me that there's nothing they could do because they were completely sold out. I tried to stay in the room but the stench was too much, I couldn't take it. So I went to the front desk and reaching the Elevator on level 2 it refused to open, i had to take the stairs. Reached the front desk and asked them to change my room but they insisted that it was the only room they had available, I would have believed them if I didn't see New people checking in and being assigned rooms, I guess they didn't care that much because I was an African, so because of the disrespect I asked them to cancel my reservation and refund my money which they said even if they do, I can't get my refund back until after 6-7 working days. That's when I contacted Trip.com and they immediately called the hotel, I'm so glad I chose this app for all my flight and hotel bookings because they actually care about our money. When the hotel was contacted they agreed to give me 50% off the first night and promised to change my room the following day. I swear to God I didn't have sleep that night, I went and sat at the balcony cried my heart out and wondered why I was given a room that they clearly knew wasn't clean. They sent a cleaner to spray air freshener in it but after like 30 minutes it all disappeared. The following day I was given a king room which was very small but I was just glad to get a fresh smelling room. On the day of my check out Robert gave me a later checkout and apologised for the inconvenience which made me feel a bit happy. And when it was time for the airport he helped me out with my luggage, so thank you Robert.

remember to bring your own personal items, but otherwise close to the airport and served it's purpose. breakfast was standard but not bad!

Close to the airport and there were many restaurants and shops within walking distance to the hotel. Had a bit of trouble finding the hotel shuttle bus but otherwise was a good stay. 

Fast, easy check in, good shuttle service and location to LAX. Carpet is a bit shabby in the hallways.
