Mattress was comfortable and the breakfast selection was good

Our room smelt like cigarettes and the bathroom was still a bit dirty they gave us a shampoo bottle which was clearly used and for some reason the peep hole on the door was covered up ?

Clean, comfortable and a good value.
Pros:

The breakfast is nice. I wish more motels would have Bacon instead of sausage, this is not just about the Clarion but many others as well. The room was clean and comfortable and they accommodated my request for a walk in shower.

Cons:

I could smell Marijuana smoke in the elevator occasionally, not a smell I like. The facility is showing it's age but they are painting and doing some updating. We've stayed there before and will stay there again when we're in the area.

Pros:

Bathroom clean, sheets cleans and towels clean

Cons:

The person who checked me in was very ill-tempered and seemed annoyed—bordering on racist and indifferent; I feel like I was given the absolute worst room in the hotel. Perhaps it was because I booked through Booking.com. The room I got had a strange, musty smell—you could notice it the moment you walked in—a sort of stale or dirty odor. I wouldn't come back. My 3-year-old took off his shoes, and his socks quickly turned black from the dirt on the carpet (which I think was the source of the smell). The mattress was old and of very poor quality, the walls were only half-painted, and the furniture was scratched and missing paint. It was only for one night, so I didn't bother arguing with the grumpy staff member. The bathroom was clean, though, and the blankets were old but clean.I reserved because it was closer to my friend house. I do not recommend this place.

Pros:

I booked this hotel through Booking.com and unfortunately had a terrible experience from beginning to end.

Cons:

The first room I was given smelled absolutely disgusting and was in very poor condition. I complained and was moved to a second room. While the second room was somewhat better, the shower did not have working water. I was initially assured that the issue would be fixed as soon as possible, but the following morning I was told they didn’t know when they would be able to repair it.

Not what we expected with a "Clarion name".
Pros:

The location was good, and easy to find right off. The highway. It was close to a lot of restaurants and eateries nearby.

Cons:

It was very run down, garbage piled up outside was the first thing you seen when you parked your car. Also, it was run down and dirty on the inside.

Never ever again. Do not stay here.
Pros:

Nothing!

Cons:

The rooms were dirty. The area was sketchy. There were ants in the room. The lamps did not work. We left and did not stay at the hotel. When asked to speak to the general manager, they refused and hung up. I left 3 messages and the GM DID NOT call back at all.
