Issued room did not have working AC. After checking two additional rooms one with working AC and no holes in doors or broken items was available. Not sure extra charges should apply to those with animals when inferior rooms to the main building are issued at the full price to those traveling with dogs.

I would not recommend staying at this hotel. The property is in serious need of maintenance and upkeep. The buildings were dirty, poorly maintained, and gave the impression that cleanliness is not a priority. We also encountered a significant bug problem throughout the building.

What concerned me the most was the apparent lack of security. The doors did not seem to lock properly and there was a noticeable gap between the door and frame. Someone can easily bypass the lock by sliding a card or similar object through the gap, which made me feel unsafe leaving belongings in the room or sleeping there overnight.

Overall, the combination of cleanliness issues, bug infestation concerns, poor maintenance, and questionable security made for a very disappointing experience. Management should address these problems immediately to ensure the safety and comfort of future guests.

This property is probably a good value for the cost. It’s affordable, but just kind
of old and looking it’s age. Pictures made it look better, so I was a little disappointed. Also picked this property because it had a restaurant - but restaurant was closed for the weekend. So, all in all, I would give 3 stars.

I had a very pleasant day clarion inn—-it is within walking distance 9f River Riders, also known as Snow Riders in the winter it took me five minutes to walk there to their headquarters. They offer a good breakfast not elaborate but sufficient several choices you could make your own waffles, but I was disappointed that they’re beautiful pool is not functional because the heater needs to be fixed or replaced after a long day of hiking or kayaking. We’re exploring. I wish I could use their beautiful pool otherwise it was excellent.

The hotel has a great setting for a traveler with a pet. There is a lawn in front and behind the building to walk a dog. Everything else is just awful. A toilet bowl with rusted spots, a dump floor, barely working wi-fi, broken safe, broken locks at the entries of the building… whoa, it is a shame to run such a poorly maintained facility for &100 +l

The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. It is very close to town and that is nice.
I was on the 1st floor, which you have to take the elevator down to it.
My WiFi did not work down there and they tried to blame it on my phone, apparently my husband’s phone must be bad too.
There is a trail behind the hotel and ppl were walking by our window often. That would have been ok but our window did not lock so I was afraid to sleep.
The breakfast was delicious and fresh, however they did not have coffee ready and they told me to go into the lobby get some.

The interior of the building was clean and the staff was friendly. I appreciated that coffee was always available in the lobby.
The exterior needs maintenance (weeds in gardens, building damage, dirty windows, just overall uncared for)
The “heated” pool was as cold as a mountain spring.
The breakfast that was provided was acceptable, but did not include fresh fruit as shown in the online photos. As a celiac, I looked for fresh fruit and yogurt in containers so that I could eat.
The gentleman setting up breakfast was very nice.

Hotel was slightly run down, but they’re working on it. Tub wouldn’t hold water for a bath, but it was no big deal. The breakfast was awesome, the staff were super friendly. We didn’t get a chance to swim, but the pool area looked super inviting as well. We’d stay there again, and I’d have no problem recommending someone to do the same. The restaurant attached to it is pretty good too.

The pool was not in service.
The breakfast floor was sticky to walk on. There were only two towels in a two queen bed room. The noise level was pretty extreme all around the first floor till about 1am. The coffee area in the lobby was scarce in supplies and the water was tepid. There was one gentleman checking 5 guests in which took some time. There is only milk in the am to use as creamer for coffee in the breakfast area. The showerhead in the bathroom was loose and needed a good cleaning. The sink area crevices needed a good cleaning.

I didn’t even stay 1 night and no refund for the horrendous conditions. I was traveling with my dog for almost 13 hours in the car- booked online because it said they accepted pets-also when I called ahead of time- they said they had a restaurant available.
Checked in at 8:00pm
- after walking my dog I took a shower only to find bugs in the drain by my feet! And there was NO HOT water
Mortified- I got dressed and went to the available restaurant that stopped serving food at 9:00 on Friday night- however at 9:35 they did allow me and my guest to have a drink at the bar while they closed down. At 9:55 am ish the man from the front desk said my dog was barking so loud it was echoing down the hall way- I immediately apologized and went straight to my room which was at the end of a very long hallway. I didn’t hear a thing approaching my room- my dog was just chilling-

I sat on the bed and a cockroach ran across my had-
I grabbed my belongings and my dog to leave- I put my dog in the car- no one to be found anywhere- starving and exhausted- I had no other choice but to leave- I asked for a refund but apparently my dog barking for 5 minutes is a reason to deny this- also I was not even there for 3 hours-

Let me start with this , the hotel is not anywhere near as nice as the pictures online. I stayed in room 1105 the bath was broken, the actual floor of the tub was patched, caulk everywhere haha. The bathroom sink had a crack in it, The room smelled. The light switch covers were broken, the electrical outlets were so worn out you couldn’t plug into them . The chrome luggage holder was extremely rusty and nasty,There was a power strip laying on the floor with everything plugged into it, Hair on the bathroom floor, carpet was sticky , the vent in the bathroom had been replaced but was cobbled up there with a big gap around it, the frame of the bathroom door was rusted clear through. We checked out early for our 2 night stay and were told we couldn’t be refunded because of a 72 hour cancellation policy. I have pictures of all of this. They will be posted if I’m not contacted and refunded in 72 hours . Clarion do better

The bathroom was not clean on arrival- dirty sink, trash not empty, empty tissue box
- the decaf and hot water at the breakfast set up were not hot - in fact I suspect the decaf coffee was stored overnight in the fridge - it wasn’t room temp -it was ice cold.
The main restaurant was very slow - there was one other table when we arrived and it took 20 minutes for the food to arrive. The waitress said there was only 1 cook - I was a professional chef -I’ve served over 180 people in one dinner shift by myself

The hotel delivers exactly what you’d expect for the room rate. While the property is a bit older, it is well-maintained, clean, and comfortable. The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming, which really enhances the stay.
One thing to be mindful of is the parking—I experienced my car’s alarm going off unexpectedly, though I’m not sure what caused it.
On the positive side, the breakfast is excellent, offering a wide variety of options. Overall, it was a good experience and a solid choice for the price.

Other than that I enjoyed my stay. If I decided to come back to that location good chance I'll book this hotel as long its all functional.

The main building may be nicer, but my daughter and I stayed in building 2 that allowed dogs. It was disgusting. The first room we were in had an odor coming from the heater as though the belt was burning. There was a fuzzy worm/bug on the wall. The bathtub wouldn’t drain and left you standing in a slimy mess. I opened a window to air the room, turned off the heater, and tried to avoid the request to change rooms, but it became so bad that I was concerned it was toxic.

We were given another room. It did not have the problems of the previous room, but there were brown water stains in both toilets and heavily deodorized in a way that felt it was to mask odors.

The staff were nice, but the facilities were horrible.

Convenient location but not worth the safety concerns. We were awoken at 1am to guests yelling in the hallway and lobby, this went on for at least an hour even after the police came. Police were questioning a guest in a room next to us while the screaming drama continued. After a day of travel this impacted our sleep and following day travel. Whatever was happening the screaming lady should have been removed quickly to address her issue and not impact all the guests in the hallway. Mold from a repaired leak in the bathroom ceiling showed the quality of work and the hallway needs some serious attention. Front staff didn't even acknowledge the drama grom the night on checkout.

I am very disappointed with this hotel. I specifically paid for a hotel with a pool, and when we arrived the pool was out of service and not heated. They told us it would be fixed the next day, but that never happened during our entire 3-day stay. I requested a partial refund, but they only refunded the pet fee, which was useless since the pool was the only reason I chose this hotel and paid that price.

They also claimed that housekeeping was available upon request, so we asked for fresh towels and room service. No one ever came. We spent three days with overflowing trash, wet towels we had to replace ourselves, and even toilet paper we had to find on our own. The staff was polite, but clearly understaffed; there was only one person for all the rooms.

Breakfast was also a disappointment. On the second day we arrived in the middle of breakfast hours and most items were gone—no juice, no protein, only apples and bread. After 30 minutes they restocked eggs and sausage, but by then we had already finished a very poor breakfast. Several items available the first day, like muffins, were not restocked at all.

The beds were comfortable, but the room was not very clean. The carpet looked dirty, the bathroom was basic and had dead insects on the floor, and the water pressure was very weak. The shower took a long time to heat up.

For the price we paid, this stay was absolutely not worth it in terms of quality and service. There are beautiful cabins nearby for half the price.
