http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/hid17794 TravelPost.com - Hotel reviews, information, and rates from thousands of websites http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r653379 We stayed here to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium. The room was nicely remodeled with brand new carpet, crown molding, granite on all the counters, fireplace, new bath tub, and toilet. It was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The indoor pool was located in a separate building; it was not convient for us to use so we skipped it. The continental breakfast was nice with fresh fruits, cereal, orange juice, coffee, freshly made waffles, toast, muffins. This was worth the money and we will definitely stay here the next time we are in town. The hotel was not within walking distance of anything, but we knew that when be booked the room. Everything was within 5 to 10 minutes drive. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r653379 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694096 Affordable, very nice, and close to all attractions.NA“NA” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694096 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694098 Overpriced Motel.Overpriced.“"Trying" would be the best description of this hotel. The breakfast was tacky with no coffee cups in sight, cold breakfast, and seating that could only accommodate a third of the people wanting to eat. The room was out of a nightmare. The carpet seemed dirty and the bathroom was as small as the closet. Even if the room was clean it certainly didn't feel like it. I do not recommend staying here.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694098 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r560922 Do yourself a favor and spend a few extra dollars to stay at a different hotel. I made reservations online and paid $40 less than my friends who stayed at a different hotel. When I checked in at the front desk, the guy said "wait", then came back 5 minutes later. The guy says "oh I didn't know if you were going to be handicapped or not, so I put you in a handicapped room. And that's the last room, so you have to take it." Okay no problem with that. The problem is the room is all the way in the back underneath the stairs. I swear you could hear everything the people were doing above. They weren't being rowdy either, just normal movements. But from inside the room, you would swear a stampede was happenening. The room is ok, but black spots on the towels say something about their cleaning. I got back from my party dead tired at 1am, but kept getting woken up by the sounds from the ouside echoeing in the room every hour. At about 5am, I had it. I counted my losses and checked out. Just because it says Clarion in their title, doesn't mean that is anywhere near the standards of any other Clarion hotel I've stayed at. If Clarion knew what was going on in this place, they'd be ashamed to have this type of place. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r560922 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r560923 Clean, safe, reasonably priced for it's location. Their breakfast room was charming and sunny, with real OJ, milk, bagels w/ cream cheese, fruit and pastries, etc. etc. We also enjoyed the indoor pool and jacuzzi. Beds were comfortable and clean. Located a short drive from the shoreline attractions. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r560923 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694100 Good location within 4 miles of tourist attractions, food and supplies.The room was not worth the price.“Located in a good location to tourist attractions. Room was small and average, and in my opinion it was not worth the price. Staff was friendly, however, if you are considering the free breakfast, don't bother. Skip the stale cereal and muffins and have a real breakfast a mile down the road.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694100 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694102 Waffles yum.Could not set thermostat.“Great for the money, indoor pool was nice, and plenty of parking.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694102 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694104 Location, continental breakfast.Breakfast area could be larger.“This is a small hotel, well located. It is not a new hotel but is well kept. The staff was helpful.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694104 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694106 The staff went out of their way to accommodate us.One girl working in the office was incompetent.“One girl working in the office was incompetent. She couldn't give us directions to the hotel, promised us a crib, then didn't deliver. Not only didn't deliver, but just left us hanging and went home. We called the front desk at 11 pm to inquire about the crib and the manager answered. He apologized for what had happened, and arranged to move us to a suite to compensate us for the missing crib. This exceeded my expectations. I would recommend this hotel to anyone because of that.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694106 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694108 Convenient location, good breakfast, nice indoor pool, quiet.Rooms are dated.“Good choice for families, clean, and convenient.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Clarion_Hotel/r694108
