What an absolute crap hole. The carpets are disgusting and have stuff caked in them. Furniture in the room was stained and had sticky stuff all over. Mold in the bathroom. Sheets were stained and dingy. Smelled bad and the shower head was caked in nastiness. Don’t ever stay here

We left after five minutes at the front desk. We had two small dogs and a parakeet which we had informed them upfront would arrive with us. We were told there was a $50 charge for each of them The surrounding area including the parking lot was atrocious. My wife said she would be afraid to walk the dogs at night. The building had damage and looked as though it had maybe been a bowling alley at an earlier time in the 70’s or 80’s likely. The area around the building and parking lot had overgrown trees, shrubs and weeds and the neighborhood was industrial. It was 4:00 PM and it appeared there were no other guests checking in or even staying there. We were told the $77 charge was non-refundable. Clarion Inns anywhere are on our list to avoid going forward. We want our money refunded.

Smelled very clean and comfy given the price point. Everything looked great except for I did find one bug on the ground, but I checked the sheets and bed and those looked ok. Again, smelled and appeared clean. Bed was not the best and not the worst. Staff was friendly.

I was unpleasantly surprised when I was asked for an extra deposit for any damage to my room. Your hotel is so unslightly that I thought that was too much to pay for a hotel that was totally run down. Plus breakfast at most motor inns is usually complimentary.
