Bonafide hotel snob, raising my hand over here! After reading the reviews, I was a little bit scared to check in at the Clarion. However, there aren't many options in Aiken, and the location and ability to have dogs couldn't be beat. I was quite pleased. Comfortable beds though scantily clad, no damp hotel stink in the room, shower was... More

I booked a room on-line through the Clarion reservation system and when I arrived to check in the place was in chaos. A storm blew out their key lock system and the whole town was booked solid so we couldn't go anywhere else. Once we got to our room there was no sofa bed as promised and the only response... More

This is the second time we've stayed at this facility. The time before it was still a Holiday Inn & Suites. Since Clarion has taken over, it has been cleaned up and I must be honest, it was a much more enjoyable stay especially since they take dogs. The indoor pool is nice and the staff was just wonderful.

We chose this Inn due to location and past stays with this type of Inn. We were unable to book our top choice of lodging, so this was chosen as a backup. We were greeted very gruffly upon arrival. We initially felt sorry about making the evening receptionist do her job. When we arrived at our room, my son wanted... More

We stayed because it was close to the Odell Weeks tennis center, where we were participating in a tournament. Positives include the pricing, which was good using the AARP discount. Staff was friendly, the room was clean and a basic buffet breakfast was included. The negatives were not all that bad. The property is older, without the amenities we have... More

Check-in slow and tortuous. Pool area grungy with whirlpool roped off and rather smelly. However, room well presented and bed very comfortable with lovely linens. Would stay again but only if the price was right. More

We should have known as soon as we saw the plunger in the bathroom.... The room was not clean (needed shoes to walk on the rug), the ceiling was dingy and stained, the spa was roped off with what looked like crime scene tape, the ice machine did not make ice, the door could only be closed with great effort,...

We stayed two nights and when we came back at the end of a long day, found neither of our rooms had not been touched: wet towels still in the bathroom, etc. When we called, they offered no fix except that we could come down to the office to get dry towels. I requested a reduced rate due to the... More
