Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Utica

The hotel is the sort of place you'd hope to find after a long day's drive — very clean, comfortable, dark at night and quiet. No spectacular views on either side. The room we were assigned looked out onto an empty car park and a garbage bin, so we were glad that the staff member on the registration desk was able to find another room on the other side, which at least looked out at some lights and activity. Bathroom had a bath, and all the expected amenities—shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, tissues, hair dryer. Fortunately after having spent the last three nights at motels with bathroom lights that turned noisy fans on at the same time as lights, this one did not have a fan. It was New Year's Eve the night we stayed, and we had arrived tired and hungry. We were hoping to order some take out asian food but discovered that there was nothing open in Utica with decent reviews. We eventually settled on going to the restaurant next to the hotel, Chesterfield's Tavolo, and had a wonderful meal served by very efficient staff, in a very lively and happy atmosphere.

Breakfast was good they refilled everything quickly the location of the hotel is good it’s easy to find the staff is very friendly
