Breakfast was good. All else was good. The room rate could have been more favorable. There was nothing that was outstanding. Why does Clarion not offer a military discount?

We only stayed for one night for a wedding. For me it was way overpriced for one night but small town with limited options I guess but breakfast had good options and the staff was very friendly like we were dining in a restaurant.

I like that the hotel is on the water-beautiful view. The restaurant downstairs was good. The hotel itself was dated. The 5th floor and my room smelled like sewage-though they did try to neutralize the scent. The parking lot was full-we had to drive around for 30 minutes to look for parking. Very frustrating.

Highly recommend!

Stayed here while house hunting in Oswego. The location was perfect! Close to everything! Sites and stores were just minutes away by car, and restaurant were just steps away! Beautiful view of the river and west side of the city!

Can't beat the location. Water views, and an indoor water park for kiddos. It's a no frills, budget friendly hotel that is beyond its prime. The older carpets, furniture, elevator, and HVAC system could all use updating. Our room had an indescribable funk to it that could only be attributed to the age of the building.

I booked a room here because of the stellar rating. The room was terrible. The air conditioner was a window unit that was noisy and kept cycling on and off without cooling the room. The bathroom was so small the door’s gonna smack smack you in the knees if you’re on the toilet. The tub looked like the cleaning crew forgot to clean it.

Our room was large and clean. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The staff were friendly, helpful, and accommodating of my dog, and it was just a short, well-lit walk to grassy areas. We enjoyed our stay.
