This property is an unsafe dump. Dirty floors. Ripped curtains, run down buildings. We did not stay after reviewing two rooms. I made the reservation online without seeing the property and they would only refund 1/3 of what I paid. Do not fall for the nice pictures online. Do not stay here.

Great service!
We have stayed at this hotel for years! One of the main reasons is the wonderful service that we have always received from Alan. He is always friendly, accommodating, and informative It is obvious that he loves his job and helping people. We also love this hotel because of the indoor/outdoor pools, large rooms, and comfortable beds. We highly recommend this hotel!

The website and even the sign out front claimed an indoor pool and spa. Unfortunately, those are unavailable due to renovations but that should be revealed before arrival. The breakfast was limited but still very good. The staff were all friendly, personable and service oriented. I would stay there again.

WORST HOTEL EVER
The room smelled so bad of musty odor. Went to front desk and asked for lysol to spray the room, they had none. Sign outside on billboard said high-speed internet what a joke. I was in room 116 and it keep saying I was too far away. It said free breakfast another joke, I thought i would get a breakfast where I can have cereal or eggs etc no it was a grab and go. I stay in choice hotels when i go on vacation and this was the worst hotel ever.i will never stay there again and I will let others know not to stay there using Facebook i rate this hotel - 5

No whirlpool
The reason we picked it was for the whirlpool/jacuzzi. It wasn’t open only outdoor pool and the place was under construction throughout the place. There was no milk for cereal in the morning and no coffe

Upon arrival we were told that the indoor pool and hot tub were not working. Also, that there was no hot breakfast as advertised. It would only be a grab and go breakfast. I believe that this should be advertised on their website as you clearly aren't getting what you are paying for. The walls around the entire property were being held up by 2 by 4s. When we got into the room the furniture was all stained and dirty. The room had cockroaches in it. When we went to the front desk and told them about the cockroach infestation they did not question it one bit. There were people out partying at the pool at all hours of the night. Needless to say we did not stay here and would not recommend this place to anyone!

Mixed emotions
My stay at the Clarion Inn was a pleasant one, except there were no towels or wash clothes on the second day. Each trip to the front counter was met with excuses, as to why there were no towels. I had to shower and dry off with my clothing.

Cozy but probably won't return
Well, the hotel said I could not check in early. Yet, the hotel was only partially full. I did not have a key card for my room. So, I had to ask someone from the front desk to let me in everytime I left and came back. They said the key card system was updating. Upon entry, the room had a stale smell, not pleasant(moldy). I used the air freshener from my car. It was a double room, but only one set of linens. The security blinds were very worn in certain areas. So if the lights were on, someone could definitely see in your room. However, I did have a very comfortable sleep. The beds were cozy. The front desk staff was also very pleasant and courteous.

We just checked out from this POS this morning. We were in town for my Daughter's graduation. The property had a smell soon as we entered the lobby. We were hesitant to stay but do to a time crunch we stayed. The keylocks didn't work. And we had to have guess services let us in. Which made us feel like we had no privacy. The rooms had the same smell as the front lobby. There was also a notice on the propertys wall...to not rent the upstairs due to it being unsafe. The whole hotel needs to be torn down. The rooms also had roaches...and the mattress covers had stains. Do not stay at this establishment. It wasn't worth the cost.

I ended up eating the money I spent on this place (because I booked through Expedia) and stayed at another HOTEL. First off this property is listed as a hotel it is not, it is a motel. Before booking I made a point to read through reviews, I have no idea how this hotel has so many good reviews. First off the hotel looks closed down when walking up. The check in staff was super nice and friendly. The first sign I was probably not in a safe spot is the sign they have hanging up that says no one with in a 50 mile radius is allowed to stay at their hotel. The second sign was signing an additional document saying that I would not not bring drugs, openly drink alcohol, keep the noise down and some other weird random stuff. As I drove around to my room I seen a couple of cars in the parking lot that looked like they were being lived out of and people hanging out in them. As I walked to my room which I felt unsafe, the building was literally falling apart, painted plywood up as a wall, unfinished areas. As I entered my room it smelled awful. The lights flickered, covers to plugs in were falling off, nasty brown stuff running down the wall. When I pulled the blankets back and the top sheet to check, you could tell the bottom sheet at not been washed as there was brown stuff on it like something had spilled. The curtains were tattered and piece of toilet paper was being used to cover the peep hole in the door. Noisy dog barking in the next room. Pictures on website are deceiving.
