They always try to meet any special requests and are friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. My Mom loves the biscuits and gravy.

More room outlets. All outlets in the entire room were already in use. I had to unplug lamps to charge my phone.

The FairBridge Inn is a clean, comfortable motel with a friendly, helpful staff.
Pros:

Easy-access location on Rt. 95; our room faced the back parking lot, so we did not hear any traffic. Several options were available for breakfast (biscuits and gravy, hard-boiled eggs, waffles, cereal) but I only tried the apples and coffee, which both were tasty. Late afternoon Friday the staff put out a crockpot of chili for the guests; it was a delicious bean and beef chili which tasted homemade! I especially liked the 104 degrees hot tub with optional jets; it was clean and comfortable.

Cons:

A slightly larger room would have been better, but we were comfortable and the price was inexpensive.
