I had the misfortune of spending three nights at this pathetic hotel. One night would have been more than enough. The staff at the front desk were incredibly rude. The hotel itself was really bland. I would definitely not stay there ever again.

I dealt with two extremely rude staff people at this one hotel. In fact, I haven't come across anyone in years who was less professional than either of the people who were working at the front desk there.

"Not my problem"

At the Clarion Hotel while checking-in the girl behind the desk said it wasn't her problem and was only concerned about her shift ending in 2 hours when the guests including my family and I could not enter our rooms due to the key card system not working. Other than that the other staff we encountered was helpful. The room was clean also had a nice indoor pool and hot tub!

Front desk is so rude and full of personal drama conversations. Housekeepers were INSANELY loud and fighting all two mornings i was there. Swearing and yelling at each other. Ill never go back here and I definitely will not recommend this place to anyone.

I paid for my room on a credit card before my stay then when I arrived at the hotel I gave them my debit card for the deposit and I got home and checked my bank account and there was a $200 charge on it. Contacted the hotel and still haven't heard back and that was 4 days ago. So I have to dispute it with my bank. This hotel isn't worth $200 a night.
