I would think its B. Although putting a comma after "however" is correct, putting a comma after "fairly" doesn't really work.

I know that B is the answer since fairly and good should not have a comma between it - I just don't understand why C is correct? Shouldn't you put a comma after Unfortunately?

I would think the same thing, but since we both know that B is incorrect I would personally go with that since in c there is no commas in the wrong spot.
