“You get what you pay for...but..”

We chose this location as it was very convenient for traveling to our daughter's apartment. I called ahead to make sure it wasn't still under construction, which several reviewers had... more »

This past weekend we stayed here after booking this hotel through Travelocity as a Top Secret Deal, who classified the hotel as a 3 star hotel. The hotel's was not up to a three star standard. Here are my issues:
Upon arrival, the hotel smelled very strongly of marijuana. The management should have picked up on that and immediately removed those guests from the hotel.
The carpets, ceiling tiles, and walls were dirty. It looked like an animal had peed on the floor in several spots, the ceiling tiles were dusty and had holes, and the wall paper was peeling off, had food stains, and was scuffed up.
The guest room doors had different room number signs, some nice looking some cheap stickers. One of the guest room doors also had its handle removed leaving a huge hole in the door. You could sew in through it and it showed a room that looked like a tornado hit it: torn up curtains, flipped mattress, stuff all over the place, it looked like someone through a party and trashed the place.
In the room I stayed in, the curtain was partially torn down, the toilet would randomly run, the shower was clogged and didn't properly drain.
Each morning that we had the continental breakfast, there was a different excuse as t. why the waffle maker was turned off early.
The fitness center was closed and messy from the outside.

I would not recommend this hotel to anyone and I feel the upper management of Clarion should come in and see what is going on. « less

“Can not recommend it”

This is the second time I’ve stayed here. We stayed here for many days, and had many friends (in town for the same event) stay here as well.

First, the good:

1. The included breakfast is above average. You get sausages, sometimes bacon, cereal and milk is available, bagels and toast, two types of juice and coffee. The dining area is large so you’re sure to find a table even if the hotel is busy.
2. The front desk staff is friendly.
3. You can not beat the price of the stay here.

Now, the bad:

1. There was no wi-fi for the durataion of our stay. I believe they just do not have a wireless network capable of serving wi-fi for all guests and in all areas of the hotel . You would call the front desk and they were unable to help. There is a business center with one computer in it so that you could use that if you really needed to.
2. Only one of the two elevators was working and it is very slow.
3. Friends complained about their room smelling bad and had to be moved to a different room.
4. Friends complained about unclean sheets.
5. Spotty room cleaning service. (Our toilet paper wasn’t always replenished. Not convinced they even vacuumed our room daily, or even washed our bathtub.)
6. Entire hotel appears to be run-down, you can hear your neighbours, and there was no fan in our bathroom.
7. T.V. has a lot of fuzzy channels. (Friend’s t.v. was the same.)
8. Water pressure and/or hot water may not be available, for some reason, late at night.
9. Hotel offers no room service (but there are vending and ice machines available).
I don’t think I will stay here again and I can not recommend it, but if the “negatives” are not that important to you – it may be worth the low price and the above average breakfast. « less
