The Clayton Hotel was overall a decent hotel. We were disappointed that we were not informed ahead of time of the extensive construction on the hotel. We realize at times they have to be updated but disappointed we weren't given a heads up. Breakfast was decent and the rooms were large and well appointed. There is a walk to most things and dining establishments were at times a bit of a walk. Not too much in the immediate area. We would possibly stay again as for the most part it was a good hotel stay.
