I made a reservation at this hotel. But, due to my mistake, the reservation was not completed and I was unable to stay at this hotel. Seeing my distress, a female hotel staff kindly helped me find another hotel. Although I was unable to stay at this hotel, I can assure that the staff are very wonderful.

Every time I go to East Lansing I stay at the Clarion. It is perfectly located. Close to where my friend lives and campus and downtown are a couple of minutes away. It’s clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff are friendly and competent. I will continue to stay there when I’m in East Lansing.
