I didn’t like having to compete for parking with people visiting. There should be designated parking spaces for hotel guests. Our room had a really unpleasant smell to it and the carpet wasn’t clean. The breakfast had a nice variety of food available.

Clarion stay

Was pretty clean. Staff was great especially continental breakfast women! My daughter loved making waffles with me! Was super convenient to have Splash in same building. My only complaint, not really fault of anyone, garbage truck came at 5 am Saturday morning and woke up my daughter and I (very loud). Apparently the dumpster was directly below our open window!

Fine for 1 night…

The hotel was fine for 1 night. Bed was comfortable. Room was dated with some stains on furniture and bathroom was very small. I was disappointed to find that we had to go to the hotel next door to use the pool as there is only a water park (for little kids) on site. Steamers restaurant downstairs was great.

We checked in a little early but I didn’t realize the first floor was an old motel and we had a glass door to the outside parking lot in our room. The bathroom was tiny and the chairs were stained. The curtains on the windows were ripped and the room had a well water type smell.
