Dip into Miami with Fare field Inn

Fare field Inn is a perfect place for pre-cruise stay. It is on the west side of the airport. What I like the best of it was the service they provides which makes it a great value hotel.
First, you don't have to spend $25-$30 on taxi to get to your hotel. They have 24 hours pick up service. Since they are very close to the airport, as soon as you land, give them a call, they show up within 10 minutes for us. (I've heard people have problem many other free hotel pick up but our experience with this one was excellent. ) P.S. we didn't get in until almost midnight as well.
Secondly, they provide free breakfast. That's perfect for me to start a morning. The variety of their breakfast is more than fare. Probably one of the best in those "Inn" standards.
Third, which is the most important things for me is free wireless. Not only you can use their free internet, they also provide free online access with two computers there so you can do research before you head out.
Last but not least, they also provide shuttle service to the port of Miami for only $7 a person at 10 and 11 in the morning. So if you are there for pre-cruise stay, you can check in , check out, have some free breakfast and hit your road to the port of Miami.
The price is around $100. What you would expect to pay for most Inn standard hotels in Miami.
The bonus for the location of this hotel which was also one of the reason why we chosen it was because it has quite a bit golf courses around. If you are there for the golf trip but don't want to spend too much money, take look at Fare Field Inn.

Room was a little small, but clean and livable. Beds were not at all comfortable, no one slept well. Had to make 3 phone calls and wait 40 minutes to be picked up by shuttle at the airport. Booked shuttle to port months in advance and they did not have a spot for us. Only gave us shuttle when I argued. Overall worked out okay, but not without some frustration.
great place

The experience from lack of shuttle bus service to lack of customer service at the front desk left me with a poor view of the hotel. The in-room wireless internet service was very low in reception. breakfast variety was good.
Shuttle Bus unreliable

I got into another Fairfield Inn shuttle bus at the airport after over one hour 20 minutes of waiting for the Fairfield Doral Bus. Breakfast was fine, the exercise room had good equipment in it, and the internet facilites were indeed available. For the price, it is okay, but I would stay at another hotel whose shuttle bus service did not keep you waiting...even the front desk staff did not have an explanation once I arrived.
