There is no current gym or water park on site. Without these items, I think the hotel was overpriced. Room service did not come daily. The gym I was sent to use at the Clarion didn’t have very good equipment. Disappointed for the cost.

"Awful experience from arrival"

2.0

1st check in was very slow one girl was checking in another couple and the bigger girl was to busy to stop what she was doing to help out and was very rude. 2: the bigger girl said the pool was closed due to a call off and she was not going to walk down to pool to check it out. She said we could walk to neighbor hotel and swim there. Smh. 3 the room next to us was smoking so much weed we could smell it all night. 4: the beds were awful. They were so hard felt like we were sleeping on cinder blocks with 2x6 wood overtop.

My room was not clean and never got clean for the 4 days that I stayed. The room had bugs in it and we booked a room off the water and was told that they don’t even have rooms off the water. The room overall was nasty and had to be cleaned by me because I brought my own cleaning supplies.

"Avoid this if possible"

4.0

When we booked on Hotels.com, the room looked nice and clean but when we went there it was a completely different experience. The bathroom floor was damp, did not have enough towels and all the bathroom fixtures were old. The hallway leading to the room had a damp smell. The beds were old and my kid even found some sand on the bed. The only compliment I can give is that the room had a beautiful view of Lake Huron but that did not make up for the other deficiencies. One other thing - we were troubled by a lot of bugs, we thought they were mosquitoes but they were water bugs. This looked more like a cheap motel rather than a hotel.
