It's in a great location! The staff was very nice and helpful. Alexis was so sweet and helpful. I had to check out and wait for my son to meet me, and I could hang out in the hotel lobby where it was warm and cozy.

Another great stay at The Circle. Rooms are spacious, clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. This is our go-to when we visit our son who goes to school in Fairfield. Needed an early check in as we come in on a red-eye and got charged $40USD so that is our only complaint.

Best dog-friendly option

Best option for traveling with dogs. Very reasonable pet fee and at the time of our stay allowed 2 dogs up to 50 lbs - which most hotels do not. Everything was very clean.
