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.
