Clarion Hotel BeachfrontClarion Hotel Beachfront Jacqueline from Detroit stayed in October 2018The registration desk staff was very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The room with a balcony overlooking the lake was awesome. The reason I gave a good rather than outstanding rating is because my bedspread had a stain on it. I removed the stained cover from the bed because I didn't feel comfortable sitting on it. Everything else was fine.These comments are from a verified stay56 people found this helpful.

Clarion Hotel BeachfrontClarion Hotel Beachfront Michael from Lansing stayed in May 2018We had a great stay but a few flaws that were taken care of. We got a room on the second floor and the doors were covered in flies so went back to the office and she moved us to the fourth floor. We asked if there was an elevator and she said no, so we walked the steps up to the top floor. No flies and nice room with great view, but on our way down the stairs we see an elevator on the corner of the hallway. Geez we are old people she could of told us there was an elevator or maybe she didn't know. The rooms were clean and nice with great view of the water.These comments are from a verified stay81 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|
