What we have here is an older motel but with some updating - so outside halls, doors, rooms and baths look like an older motel. Updating re the new all white cotton bedding is nice and curved shower rail etc.
Food court is ridiculously small for hotel this size. We got no maid service at all during our two night stay.
Our bill with tax was I think over $350 which might seem a lot for an older motel...
However the location is GREAT. It was clean, pool is bland rectangular in the side of the parking lot, but nicely landscaped. Free parking. Ten minute walk max to Disney ticket office. easy to go back for a break during the door.
So what you pay for is location - totally worth it we thought - and it seems reliably clean and safe which isn't clear at some of the other hotels in this row of hotels.

1. The front desk clerks had cold & sterile attitudes.
2. The concierge/travel clerk was actually very helpful and nice
when my husband's wallet was lost during our stay.
3. The walls are "paper thin": The people next door had a "bratty
kid" who kept screaming and crying at her parents when
she didn't get what she wanted (a six year old, not a baby)
4. The beds were very comfortable, but had to grab the spare
blanket because it was cold in the room (air conditioner was
off).
5. Coffee maker was a joke. It looked like a mini & cheap
version of a "Senseo One Shot" machine.

Overall, it just didn't meet mine & my husband's expections despite of the reviews we had read prior to booking the hotel. If we do visit Disneyland again, we won't be staying there again.

I am totally amazed to see such negative comments about this property. My husband and I have stayed at the Fairfield four times in the last ten years and adore this hotel. The walk to Disney main gate is very short, less than five minutes. There are many dining places in the area. I am not sure what people are expecting when they book here, sure its not five star but for price, comfort, cleanliness and position I think it is unbeatable. I sure will be staying here on our next trip. Trust me, give this place a try, you definately wont be disappointed

We stayed at the Fairfield Inn July 4-10th in room 309. This was our second family trip to Disneyland and were once again pleased that we chose the Fairfield as "our home away from home". If you're looking for five star accomodations...then the Fairfield is definitely not for you. However, if you want a clean, basic motel room that is within walking distance to Disneyland...then the Fairfield is a good choice. Like all the hotels along "the strip" that are across the street from Disneyland...the Fairfield is an older motel. The outside and bathroom doors are slightly...just slightly warped...the furniture is basic..the bathrooms are plain...but everything is clean, in good condition, and works. The carpet is a bit worn...but it didn't turn my socks black...so all was good. It looks like the bathroom was recenlty caulked...and there were no signs of black mold anywhere. Beds are extremely comfortable with plenty of pillows. FYI...the fold out chair/bed is good for a young child to sleep on...but anyone in their teens and older may find it too narrow. Check-in was a breeze. We asked for a third-floor, Disney view room, away from the elevators...and that's exactly what we got. Staff were very friendly and helpfull. They all signed a 7th birthday card for my daughter and delivered it to our room with a bunch of balloons. Very much appreciated. Some reviewers wrote about the "unsafe walkways"...but ours was just fine. In fact, all the railing bolts were brand new. Others wrote about the low shower head...which is huge by the way. I'm 5'10" and had no problem. All in all we were once again pleased with our stay at the Fairfield Inn and continue to recommend it to all our family and friends.
