Front desk staff was friendly and willing to accommodate. However, there was no housekeeping AT ALL for our 3night stay. Plenty of parking amid the vast amount of potholes. Access to room was easy and convenient but stairs and walkways were in poor condition. We reserved king size bedroom; upon arrival we were advised it was not available due to broken heater and was given a 2dbl bedroom. Room was clean but smelled like smoke appearance did not match the website. Heater went out 2x and bathroom light in vanity area did not work. However the beds and pillows were very comfortable and we had hot water and nice tv. Remote control was missing the back. We never rcvd any fresh towels or toilet paper. Coffeemaker was missing pieces and not working.

Hard to do business when you're under renovation.

They do not have breakfast in the morning. The pool is shut down and it was very dirty around the area. The rooms were very clean but the lack of having breakfast and they’re offering and offering a pool on the website and then you get there and it’s all shut down and there’s no breakfast. We said something to them about the breakfast and they ended us a bag and it legit had Twinkie in it and damn water. And that was it Granny. It was cheap but I mean damn.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Staff were friendly and courteous. Room was large with nice appliances. Staircase was literally falling apart. Pool was greenish/brown, laundry facility out of order- empty boxes all over the main lobby. No phone in the room, tv didn’t work, hot water didn’t exist- “clean bed” had hairs on the sheets, didn’t even try to clean the chair in front of the TV- full of dust and peanut shells, only one small trash can in the bathroom, only one security camera per hallway (no idea if they even work) and surprise- a $100 security deposit required. If I hadn’t been exhausted for being on the road for 9 hours I’d have asked for a refund and gone somewhere else.

Don't arrive in the dark, room numbers cannot be seen unless you walk up to the door. It was like black numbers on Navy blue. Pet friendly-Pet stays free. It's not I was charged $50 "deposit" for my chihuahua. The accessible outlet near the desk looked kicked in. The Lamp outlets and USB ports were broken and couldn't charge from there. The working outlet was far from a table or the bed. Website said breakfast was offered --it was not. It did have a working refrigerator and freezer for my medications which was appreciated. Did not test other appliances. The toilet did not like to flush with a much of the top button. Had to Push the button all the way into the tank to get it to work. No decent outdoor lighting and the outside stairs by the empty planters were crumbling. As for ammenities there were 4 hair conditioners, two washcloths a hand towel and another towel. The shower did not work properly. Seemed every other room was derelict as I was searching for my room.

The beds & sheets were nice. The Grab ‘n Go breakfast was good - apple, cheese crackers, cake, water, & juice box. Everything seemed clean in the unit. We were put across from the pool where the lights were very bright & the blinds didn’t cover the whole window. People walking by could see in our unit & we could see them. Things were run down in & our, but the price total $66.00 was good.

stayed 2 non consecutive nights. Good price. 2 comfortable queens each night. Only 3 were clean. brown wooden specks found in one bed. Reasonably clean. Breakfast was: bottle of water, coffee cake and/or cheese cake. What? Who eats cheese cake for breakfast? Handicapped and asked for a room near the lobby. No such thing. 1st night gave us a very inconvenient room location. Learned and better the 2nd night.

Bed was comfortable. Headboard was dirty. If you want to watch tv you have to download Google TV to your phone and mirror to TV. No success with that. I couldn’t connect to TV. Bluetooth???The TV is new , furniture, floors, upgrades for sure but same old tub with new surround. My feet were dirty after walking on the floors barefoot. Where your black socks.

While Clarion has obviously purchased this motel, it is far from ready to rent under their banner. This is a rough motel with illusions of Clarion lightly brushed around. Rooms, linens, furnishings are a very cheap imitation of what we usually find in a Clarion. Doors do not seal, window coverings do not provide privacy,. Hopefully the renovations will result in better quality than what we saw in a room that supposedly had been refurbished. I do not recommend this l8cation and will not be back. The one bright spot was the woman working the desk who was friendly & professional!

Drama upon checking in with what appeared as regulars (maybe Longterm renters) cursing the guy at counter out about not being able to give them more towels (staff was calm & collected & apologetic though). Upon going to our room there were some people sitting outside with coolers & loud music playing. We switched rooms for a quieter one up stairs & a little further down. Beds were clean but there were dead bugs on floors, no trash can in room, no hot water (cold & warm only) BREAKFAST IS A “GRAB & GO”. Consisting of water, apple banana & crackers only. Not what we were expecting. No dining area just back to room. No outdoor seating either.
