This place is not disgusting; just really dirty. There are stains on the sheets, and I found more than 3 bugs in my room. I would not dare walk around anywhere without shoes. No hot water. The cable was out more than it was on and it was a HUGE hassle trying to get internet. Will not be staying again.

Another pleasant stay

This is the second time I have stayed here for a horse show. The staff are always so pleasant and helpful, and the place is clean well kept. The price is right, and I will continue to use this location every time I need to come to the MSU pavilion.

Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s are very close. The bed was big and comfortable. But the floor needed vacuuming and the entire property needed more cleaning.

The Clarion hotel was an absolute nightmare, the hotel had a peculiar smell and absolutely in un-hygiene condition requiring us to make alternative arrangements. After much search we were able to find a hotel for our 2 night stay while at our conference on July 11th, thus canceling the Clarion stay late that night. We suggest a full refund be granted to us given the inconvenience and the additional stress of looking up another hotel after a long 5 hour journey. Please look into the matter and credit my visa at the earliest convenience. Thank you Ingrid

Room had string musty, moldy, chemical smell which affected my sinuses. Was offered another room but with same but less strong odor. Housekeeping offered to spray the room with freshener but that just covered up whatever was affecting my sinuses. Just couldn’t stay. Refused room and went to another motel.
