Uptown Motel still open

[rinard gal]

The problem with the UPtown is that it is a flop house for the illegals in the area. The restaurant out front is good but it looks like the mexicans live in some of those hotel rooms year round. I don't know who owns it now but its pretty trashed out which happens when the field workers and the mexicans who work in the restarant kitchens in the winter take over. Thats pretty sad.

That's why we stay in Evansville or Mt. Vernon (IL) when we come home to Fairfield to visit family. I still remember my grandma taking me to the restaurant there at the Uptown to eat - back when it was good. It's a shame. :-(

A few years back we were in Fairfield and got a room at the Uptown hotel. We left after about 1/2 hour due to the condition of the room. Yikes

I must say,it is worse now than it has been ever since it has been built.if staying in the area,make plans to stay at the Brierwood Inn,located behind the Five Brothers Cafe,in Fairfield.also Five Brothers Cafe is a very good place to eat!!!
