The staff was very friendly and explained everything as this was our first time staying here. The room was very clean and my kids loved the different lighting features on the wall/floor level. The free breakfast is amazing. Biscuits, gravy, sausage, potatoes, eggs, waffles, muffins, cereal, etc. The pool and hot tub were nice as well. Loved the little balcony off the room! Would stay here again!!!

Everything was clean! The staff at the front desk was super awesome. The location was great. You were close enough to walk to everything, but back enough you didn't hear the traffic along the main stretch. My family and I really enjoyed this place.

From checking in to checking out, all the staff we encountered weren’t just professional, they were kind, welcoming and genuine. The pool area was small but nice and plenty for our kids. The rooms were spacious and clean as well. This definitely wasn’t what I expected from a 2.5 star hotel.

Under construction. We picked hotel for pool and upon check in they said pool was closed. Smelled like wet paint everywhere. Got to our room and I opened the door up to see bare feet and legs and the tv on. Quickly realized that the room was occupied and shut the door. Stranded then in the hall by myself wrangling my kids and now my toddler was screaming and crying. All of our stuff then fell off the cart because I was trying to get off the floor and back to the elevator. Needless to say we left as quickly as we could and they gave us a refund. Out of the million times we have stayed in a room at a hotel I’ve never witnessed the craziness and I organization of a hotel like this. Unreal to walk in and see people in their beds watching tv. Imagine being on the other side and they see me with 2 little kids coming into their room!

I love the location of this property and have stayed here several times. This visit there was remodeling and construction going on all over the property but luckily we didn't hear any of the noise in our room and our room was quite comfortable. They didn't have some of the breakfast options available such as the waffle maker due to limited space in the dining area with remodeling going on and kids always look forward to the waffles so they were disappointed not to have them during our stay but there was still decent choices. The construction made it a little awkward but all in all we still enjoyed our stay and we will stay again.

Stayed here for four nights and now family and I are suffering with horrible bed bug bites, and praying we didn't bring them home with us. We had two rooms on the 3rd floor. First, the floors were not vacuumed and overall cleanliness was not the best. Then there was an ant problem in one of our rooms. The pool didn't seem very clean either and the outdoor spa wasn't working. Front desk was not friendly at all and even sighed when I asked for additional blankets.

Beds are always comfortable. Breakfast was great. Pool was heated. All workers were helpful and friendly. My only complaint is that both hot tubs were dirty especially the outside hot tub. Had leaves and orher debris in them when me and my family went down to use. The rest of the stay went great.

The Clarion was in a great spot!!! Right next to Calhoun's steakhouse and across the street from the castle which had an excellent indoor miniature golf course. The heated pool and the outdoor spa at the hotel was superb!!! The cleanliness of the room though was a little dirty as dirts was in every corner that you looked not in the middle traffic just all around the corners of the floor and there are a lot of children here so if you want a peaceful night you'll have to wait till the kids go to bed lol. Service was fantastic in the breakfast buffet was above average I give it a total of four out of five stars

This stay was wonderful for our family. We had a balcony off our room which allowed for fresh air when needed. The indoor hot tub was cold but the outdoor hot tub was hot. The breakfast was good and fresh each day! They have coffee and juices available at all times. The room was clean and staff helped when needed. The property was quiet and easily accessible to many attractions/dining options!
