Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Easy check in. Rooms x02-x10 are on the street side with some traffic noise. The others are on the rear-parking-lot side. Clean. Comfortable. Came with 2 free drink coupons (draft or wine with 4 options for “red”). Nice bar. Continental breakfast was very basic. Nothing fancy overall but well-priced and convenient to town and SU. Would stay again!

Staff is friendly, beds nice. I liked the smaller pillows with both foamier and softer filling. The room was clean, but the bathroom tub area needs an upgrade. We also thought the Ugrill restaurant right in the building was convenient and nicely priced.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Cheap for a reason

The elevator was creepy. The hallway was extremely hot. The tiles were sticky, the carpet was moist, and there was no soap in the bathroom. There was no shampoo or conditioner either. We ended up driving home because I questioned the cleanliness of the beds.

Good for the money

The Clarion is an older hotel that is being renovated and apparently be a future bigger brand hotel. The bar was great. The room was older. But it was worth the money being a lower cost alternative on the road.

Clean and quiet

Stayed here on a whim. Had very mostly good ratings on hotels. However, there was a concern because one person wrote about a problem. It was obviously not a problem. He wrote in all caps, which is usually a sign that someone is strange. We had no problems here and the place was clean, and the breakfast was excellent.
