Unexpectedly BAD!!!
Overall condition of property was *very* poor -- hallways smelled of smoke, room was musty/moldy smelling, security latch broken off door, no security locks on outside hallway doors, pool not accessible, ice-maker broken, etc, etc. Hotel and rooms looked nothing like your photos. Immediately adjacent to highway (noisy) and several gentlemen's clubs. Main clientele appeared to be truck drivers. Not what I expected for a property billed as a "conference center".

Just passing through so was only there to sleep a few hours. But the beds had no blankets, only really old, thin sheets. They were able to get me a small blanket when I asked, but not a very comfortable night sleep

Horrible night. Loud couple fighting, yelling, slamming doors from 2 AM to 4AM. Apparently had a gun. Police called. Front desk admitted they knew person(s). No compensation offered for horrible lack of security and sleep. Stay away from this place.

Hotel was very run down.
Had stayed there in the past and it wasn't in as bad of shape. It appeared as if they were going out of business. Very poor condition.

Older hotel but being updated. Pool area nice. outside doors leading to room access hallway had notices on them to please close doors completely. this was not being done. so safety was an issue. on first arrival to room, our key wouldn't work. a maintenance man working down the hall promptly noticed and assisted us immediately, a big thank you to him!

OK Hotel
The hotel was average. The room was ok, but not super clean. The staff were friendly. It was an off the highway type hotel and it worked for my purposes. Was not there very much.

2/10 Poor

Not worth your money
Room was dirty, not maintained, extremely overpriced. The lobby was nice. The room not so much. Hallway and room smelled of passed gas. Cobwebs all over the ceiling. Furniture was in poor shape. The paint was unmatched. Bathroom was gross and barely lit. Trim falling away fromthe wall. Ac shut off somewhere in the mid 70s. If this room was priced at$80 i would have been disappointed so at 175 i was furious. Was there for 10 minutes. Checked in, seen room, checked out. Waste of money waste of time. I will never stay at a Clarion again.

Good value hotel near the Interstate.
Comfortable and good value. Good restaurants about 5-8 miles away, which is a bit much after a days drive on the Interstate. Typical motel, indoor pool; only 5 foot deep but had it mostly to myself for a couple of afternoon hours.
