Rooms were good enough. Didn’t changed the bed linings and cleanings as promised. The worst is the customer service. Breakfast was all packaged except yoghurt/milk. Fruits look like it was kept for display. Not recommended. Don’t want to visit again.

The room was clean and smelled good. The woman front desk worker during the day attitude was not nice or friendly. Due to the way, she spoke to people she is very rude. The man front desk worker at night had the correct attitude. He was very nice and friendly. The pool was not open, yet. I am not sure if the Clarion Inn is pet-friendly or not because we did not have a pet and we did not hear or see anyone with pets.

Room was very clean, beds were very comfortable, 830am we went in for the breakfast, only thing that was there was 2 mini muffins and cereal. there’s no elevator so if stairs are not easy for you, I would for sure request for lower level, For a one night stay it’s great and there are many things right down the street

This was reasonably priced and all we needed for an overnight stay. The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. To make this a 4 or 5 star would only take 2 investments. 1.) Exterior and interior doors need painting as paint was peeling off both doors. 2.) Better quality towels.
