Recent two night stay here. Located outside the Clinton Square area so within walking distance of the bus hub. Area not the bead hotel has a motel feel with small reception and breakfast bar area. Room itself was a decent size and bathroom functional. Lovely lady at reception who could not have been more helpful. Will be back in Syracuse and would definitely stay here again.

The original reservation was for the wrong night but the hotel staff was able to help contact hotels.com to receive a refund and rebook for that night. The Clarion went above and beyond to help with the rebooking. Cannot thank them enough!!

Expedia had listed breakfast as being from 6:30-10:30 (main reason I stayed here). Got there at 9:35, front desk said "Breakfast closes at 9, I just cleared it off at 9:30" I mentioned this to the Hotel after via Expedia messages and they appear to have changed it on Expedia now as well. Of course that doesn't negate the $20 I had to spend getting breakfast elsewhere.

My stay was for 1 week. Despite having the “make up room” sign out EVERY DAY, three different times I had to request the garbage be removed from my room and for clean towels and wash cloths. My sheets were only changed one time, and that’s because I went to the desk and demanded they be changed. The management really needs to do better.

The property has some sort of unpleasant scent as you walk along the corridors to your room. The flies were also unpleasant and annoying. It was in my room and the washroom and breakfast bar area. I actually saw the flies on the bagel. The bed was lovely and the room was tidy, so that was good.

This was a perfect overnight stay while visiting a local college with my son. We were minutes away. The staff went out of their way to be friendly and personable which which just added a positive vibe to the visit. The room was huge, clean, modern and newly renovated. Thank you!

Very pleasant check-in. Gave us a bottle of white wine as a thank you. The rooms were recently innovated, but some repairs needed to be made in room 218. The faucet was not attached firmly to the counter and there was a flashing light constantly in the bathroom.was
