The “savings” aren’t worth it!
I know this is a low-budget hotel, but it was especially bad. Ants in the shower; water damage on the baseboards; dips in the floor of the room (tripping hazard); dirty towels (stains and hair on supposedly clean towels); the sheets were melted; TV screen was low-quality and had a fuzzy picture; pool was closed for renovations; ice machine was broken; the list goes on. I would not recommend. The “savings” aren’t worth it!

A very dated motel that is in the process of being renovated, but you can only do so much. Restaurant was closed, free breakfast was very limited. Secondary entry door would not close therefore no security.

Stay Away
I checked in and 10 minutes later checked out. I could not possible stay in that Hotel. The room smelled of mildew as soon as I open the door. The bedding may have been cleaned but both the pillow cases and sheets had stains that looked like pee. The bathroom ceiling was covered with water damage and mildew. The hotel was under renovation, which is fine, but condition of the room was completely unacceptable for anyone to stay in. I wish I had remembered to take pictures but I was so disgusted I just needed to get out asap. I simply dropped off my room cards at reception and stated I couldn't possible stay another minute. I went to Hampton Inn instead.

Just a place to rest
The registration went smoothly, the motel was clean and neat, and the parking was free. With that being said, accessing the motel coming southbound was confusing and dangerous. There was an odor in the hall and lobby that reeked of sewer gas. The room was clean but the beds creaked from being worn out and were very uncomfortable. You get what you pay for so don't expect comfortable beds. The was great though.

This building is old for a hotel. It was built in 1972, so it's now 50 years old. You can tell by looking at the place, she has some miles on her. You can't really tell by looking from afar, but once you get up close, you'll know. The inside and outside of this place needs repair. It has a musty smell inside. Our room had ants 🐜 inside, everywhere! We did not find them until the next morning. They were all over our bed and all over the floor. The place needs pest control. The reason why this place did not get a bad overall review is because even though this inn is a bit old and shabby, it makes up for it in other ways. The staff was really nice and helpful. The gentleman I met while checking out had such a wonderful personality. You could tell that he was a sociable team member who really enjoyed his job. He knew the history about the place. He also listened and seemed to care about the guests staying there. Most importantly, this place had the best internet connection I have ever had, at any hotel I've ever stayed at! I was always logged on, even if my tablet stayed idle for a while. You don't get that at most places. Our room had a decent size refrigerator which kept our picnic food cold, and we didn't need our cooler. The TV worked and we were able to get weather report updates. I was really pleased at the amenities there. It's a cheaper motel room, so you get what you pay for. Even though the place itself has issues, there are also advantages.

Nothing really wrong with the hotel or it’s property. It seemed like a decent place to stay to just lay your head down and rest after a long journey.

Very Disappointing for a Clarion
This hotel DOES NOT offer shampoo, soap, or any amenities that other hotels do. It does not offer continental breakfast or any other breakfast for that matter. The heater in the room didn’t work. Definitely needs upgrading. We were also double charged for this room (currently waiting on refund a month later). I would recommend paying a few extra dollars and finding a better hotel.

Get what u pay for I guess. Room was fine. Halls in hotel are dark and missing tile on ceiling makes it feel like a dumpy place. No breakfast due to Covid. Covid has been around for two years take it off your hotel description. Bar wasn’t open, again if it was because of Covid say that in description.

They overcharged, committed fraud on our credit card. One night we stayed in our room $64. They charged $3800.00 by charging $407.68 nine times. Take this hotel off your site.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They are this locations best asset. There was big construction equipment and a huge pile of coal in the parking lot. The awning over the entrance was damaged. Breakfast wasn't very good, muffins and donuts were stale and the milk was left sitting out and was warm. There was an unpleasant odor that we could not identify. No coffee pots in the room. The ice machine was broken and we had to ask the staff for ice. Our room had double/full size mattresses on queen pedestals and we were banging our knees constantly. We were in Fairmont for a funeral so our entire stay was miserable. We will not be back.
