False advertising breakfast

The shower did not drain. The breakfast was a to go bag. Not the breakfast buffet shown on website
Reid, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The room didn’t creep me out dirty but definitely run down. I think there were long term renters. Breakfast minimal. Property run down. Don’t stay here.

You get what you pay for.

The front desk were nice. But the owners need to invest some money in the property. The room was clean, the tv worked. The showers was hot. The breakfast was a sack breakfast handed over at the front desk. The place is run down. Glad I read the comments before going or I would have been very disappointed. 1.5 stars

It looks like this hotel was really really nice about 30 years ago. You can see how many layers of paint they're put over everything, and just how beat up everything has gotten over the years. We really wished the hot tub was working. But the pool looked pretty nice. Also, if the bar would've been open, that would've been super nice. Overall the stay was fine. This place just needs a major revamp done by a reputable contractor, and this would be a super nice place to stay. But then it wouldn't be as cheap as it was haha

Entrance doors to hotel do not lock. Crackheads running all over. People smoking in non smoking rooms and coming though vents. I would consider this a trap house more than a hotel. Not family friendly.
Nate, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

It is a beautiful hotel, but is currently under renovation and short staffed. Furniture is stacked in the common areas and the room did not have enough furniture or light. I did not get the room I reserved. Very dirty room and pool. They should close for awhile. Bad reviews are not good for business.

Better inside than out

Inside was good including lobby and room. The outside was sketchy. Parking lot concerned me, was my car safe over night even though it was outside my room. None of the hallway ice machines worked. Had to get ice from the kitchen. Breakfast was excellent with plenty to choose from and everything was freshly made. Hotel staff was pleasant and accommodating.

2/10 Poor

It was the worst place i ever had to stay. There were a bunch of people that outside by the main entrance smoking buts the hall and the room were really out dated and not clean. I was scared to get in the elevator and it was filthy. They didn't come to clean my room i had to go to the desk to get towels brought up. Very bad experience.

Great Staff, Poor Room

It was not a clean room. Flies in the room from the open threshold form the door that I blocked with a towel. There were no towels available the next day. I killed a roach. Trash under the bed. The bed was broken. Nice staff, but just a poor room.

In Progress Remodel with Potential

Front desk attendant at check in and check out was extremely helpful, attentive and friendly. Other review said amenities were not there, but every amenity listed is there, other than the restaurant and bar that are being remodeled and scheduled to re-open in May '24. There is a great Mexican restaurant a few bldgs down and several other restaurants. Breakfast was provided as a bag full of a perfect assortment to satisfy anyone. I25 was suddenly closed, and we were not planning on staying, so it was a last minute booking. We were provided a bag of toiletries to include toothbrush, toothpaste, razor, shaving cream etc. Once remodeled, the hotel will look amazing. The rooms need to be touched up, but the fresh clean towels and bedding was nice and enjoyed in room coffee.

2/10 Poor

We arrived at 10pm last night and were very tired after a 30-hour flight from Scotland to Denver, CO, and left at 3:30am because we could not sleep in such a run-down motel. The bed was lumpy, the sheets were dirty, the toilet would not flush correctly, holes in the walls, pealing plaster and paint missing, some of the lights did not work, stained and torn carpet, and the other questionable guests at the motel appeared to be long term and threatening. This motel should not be registered as a Clarion property.
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

There was obvious black mold in the bathroom, the room wasnt clean. TV remote didnt work, blow dryer and towel bars were barely hanging onto the wall, picture leaning against the back of couch instead of hung on the wall, front desk mentioned there were long-term and questionably safe people who live in the hotel.

2/10 Poor

Arrived after 3 for check in. Had to sit for an hour before getting keys for a dump of a room. And I booked a top level "SUITE"!!!! Advertised hot tub dirty and empty. Pool dirty and NOT heated. Freezing in the middle of July. Both pool tables broken and out of order. Entire hotel needs major work. 2 steps from being condemned. Cold shower before checking out topped of the experience here. Will never visit here again
Justin, 1-night trip

Will never go back!

Will never stay there again. The do not have breakfast like they advertise. People were drinking late into the night in front of our room.. they left a huge door ding in my car. Couldn’t sleep due to them slamming doors all night and running up and down the sidewalk.. pool was nice, but the people hanging around were arguing and appeared to be on drugs. It felt extremely unsafe, the door and most of the room were falling apart.. when we checked out the next morning the parking lot was full of sheriffs deputies and a K-9 unit!

4/10 Fair

It was an old property that was obviously converted. The price did not reflect the stay. The old window that was on old hotel was a hallway and the only thing between the window and room was a curtain. People walking in the hall could still see inside the room making safety an issue. With us being 2 women getting into the lot at night it was poorly lit with men hanging around outside and a homeless man in front. The parking lot was not maintained with lots of holes and again poor lighting. The room itself had water damage above the beds and trim pulling away from the wall. The shower and toulet are were dirty and the room had a strong rose purfume type smell that was irritating.

Needs Updated and Deep Cleaned.

Hotel is extremely in need of an update. Appears to be surface clean but deep down dirty. Bedding was stained, paint chipped off room wall, carpet frayed and loose, door does not fit right has been forced open, see where locking latches have been replaced several times. Parking lot dirty and trashy,. It simply needs completely cleaned and updated . Noticed Sheriff constantly patrolled parking lot. People out wandering around all night. It almost appears tthey are providing housing for homeless people in one section of the builidng. Wifi worked speratically. Did not try the Breakfast due to clenliness issue. On a postive note the the staff was professional and coureous.

Beware!!

This property is very aged. It doesn’t help when several people in the parking lot where working on there cars. Other’s hanging out in front of their unit smoking ( don’t know what) with pets. All rooms have this pixie glass front wall next to entry door. Don’t feel safe at all. Center/pool area has this massive patio cover over the pool area. Which is the only cool thing about property. As soon as you get to counter. There’s color printed signs taped to counter averting that complementary breakfast is no longer served. The owner needs to update all apps to this change. For myself, this was the one factor that swayed me to give this Hotel a chance. Also, indicating when the hotel was remodeled. Because halls stunk, carpets are dirty and bathroom’s moldy. Bathroom tiles look replaced incorrectly and stains/patches on ceilings. Clarion is a big chain and should inspect properties that carry there name. Maybe assist owners with remodel’s.

On the up side, the kids loved the pool and the breakfast was good, although they had trouble keeping up with the hot foods. The beds and bedding were comfortable. However, the room was not clean. Most of the time there were not towels by the pool. The keys usually did not work to let us into the building, but once in they generally worked on the room door.

The rates were too high for the conditions of the property. The place is old, smells, and needs to be remodeled/cleaned up. The staff was nice, very responsive, the beds were comfy and our room did have COLD AC which was great!

Ok stay

Floors in hallway were filthy and people were allowed to be barefoot in dining room. The place is fairly rundown. BUT…. The room was clean and tidy. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Some of the other guests were super sketchy. Almost seemed like they had some long term residents who lived there. Not sure. Anyway…. Good stay for what we needed. The pool seemed cloudy but the staff was cleaning it and we loved that the plants all around the pool area were real.

Make sure you don't forget any of your items.

It wasn’t a bad stay for my kids and I. They also allow pets for a reasonable fee. I thought it was kind of strange they booked us in the “extended stay” section of hotel- but, the kids and I still had a good time. The only problem I had was a few hours after we checked out I realized I forgot to grab my swim suit that I hung on the back of the bathroom door. I called as soon as I realized. I was told by the front desk it would be put in the lost and found by house keeping. I called the next several days asking if they found it, even brought in a picture. Somehow my swim suit vanished - or “housekeeping” just threw it away and now I’m out of a swim suit. Wasn’t offered any type of compensation for that.
