Find2-Star Hotels in Mankato

I booked 2 rooms, 4 nights via trips.com and 1 night via a credit card portal. We normally book direct with the hotel but it the 3rd party sites offered lower costs. Neither third party booking site disclosed a $3 parking fee at the time of booking. Looking at the hotel website, I also do not see a parking fee disclosure. Mankato is a relatively small town, and the location is not busy enough to justify a parking fee; charging it as a surprise/undisclosed fees (resort, parking, etc) is a dishonest practice you should abandon if you want repeat business. We were generally happy with the housekeeping, beds and room features. Issues with the TV signal and room keys were resolved by the staff in a timely manner. I chose Fairfield based on past good experience with Mariott/Residence Inn/Fairfield breakfasts in other cities. We appreciate access to a basic breakfast, and were pleased with the coffee, fruit, and bagels. However the quality of the main course (instant scrambled eggs and so-called ”omelettes”) was disappointing. Yogurts were exclusively fat-free (chalky taste) in a padlocked at 9am sharp. Sausage patties (frozen/warmed) were in short supply and also not appetizing. For the room rate we paid, we hoped for a better breakfast.

Nice clean updated rooms- pleasant employees. We will stay here when we visit again.

Had a lot of fun and the beds were comfy

Upon arrival to our room, there was toothpaste in the sink, slightly thrown together beds, and a dirty mini fridge. The service was adequate at the desk. Reception area and breakfast area were both clean and cared for though. I think it might be worth paying a little extra money in hotels for a cleaner room.

as always a great stay at the American. had a little run-in with a guest in the hotel... called and notified the front desk and they were on top of it and took care of the problem right away. thank you!
