Taggerty Holidays

Room clean lack of cooking utensils and an oven rack Reception staff pleasant to deal with

Clean and well maintained, though a bit older property. Great stuff, good central location.

Upgraded to a Superior King on level 16…happy and pleasantly surprised. Happy with the cleanliness, the staff were friendly and helpful, buffet breakfast included was sufficient. The only downside was the noise during the day due to work being done and at night due to traffic. Even though I was on level 16 the traffic could be heard quite loudly. Better soundproofing is needed as the banging of doors from other rooms was quite loud.

The location was excellent, for walking and for access to public transportation.The 3 bedroom suite had plenty of space for 4 adults. I had one meal in the restaurant, a chicken caeser salad, which was very good. But considering the cost of the stay, I expected the accommodations to be slightly better. There was supposed to be a VIP gift card, but the only perk offered was a free glass of house wine or beer in the bar, so I assume that was it. There was no coffee maker in the unit- just a kettle and instant coffee packets. (Coffee drinkers know this is unaccrptable.) The combination laundry washer/dryer was not ideal - no instructions were provided, and the dryer function ran so hot that the unit door would remain locked until it had cooled down, effectively holding my clothes hostage. On one occasion I tried to order a cocktail at the restaurant (full) bar, but the staff member did not know how to make any cocktails, so she told me my only alcohol options were wine or beer. Additionally, and not the fault of the Clarion, the casino across the river shot huge flames into the sky, every night from 9 to 12, on the hour. It was surprisingly loud and disturbing, once the initial fascination wore off. So, while I would stay in this area again, I would probably book different accomodations.

Great place to stay.
