This is a very serviceable motel right off the main highway with cheap rates, clean, large rooms, nice view of the meadow behind the motel, free WiFi, and free breakfast including make your own waffles. We had a room with 2 doubles that had a ton of space to spread out and toss your luggage but then the bathroom was really cramped with about 1-inch between the toilet and the bathroom door. Not a big deal but just not a well designed space. If you're looking for something with more character and charm, and in downtown then you should head to the Doherty. If you just need a place to sleep this'll do just fine. PS - The mural of leprechauns in the lobby/breakfast room is a little bit creepy. Not so much that you'll have nightmares but enough that you'll question why on earth someone painted it. read more

I know that there are not a lot of options in this town, but you would be better off driving 30 minutes to the next town than staying here. The rooms were dark, old and sketchy. For example, they have torn the decorative edging wallpaper out of the room and not refinished or even repainted the wall. The staff got the job done but really did not have much training in customer service. They were busy doing other projects like cutting out the decorations for the next holiday instead of focusing on the customer. I survived this trip, but would definately fin a new place to stay next time. read more

The gentleman that answered the phone was polite and quickly took our reservation. We checked in at 10:30pm. The front desk clerk was very nice. The lobby and our room smelled of smoke...though both were "non-smoking". Room was clean. Like other reviews, the bathroom is extremely tight, lacking any space to move. The beds are awful. Old, sag in the middle, only a bottom sheet & comforter. The leprechaun mural is creepy too. For $85 on a weekday, not worth the money. For $20 more another hotel would have been a better decision. read more

An orchestral cluster. I think they try to make this a bad experience. At Motel 6 they leave the light on; a clear step above this. This is one of the worst hotel experiences of my life. We booked it through AAA and they didn't honor the price. But we had no other choice but to stay there as everything else was booked. We had to haul our luggage up the stairs. The room had mold near the two fire sprinklers on the ceiling. Then we noticed no refrigerator or microwave. There was a big television cabinet with a TV from the Clinton Administration. The cabinet was water damaged. There was no place to put our luggage. It had to go on the floor. Then the WiFi wasn't working. We had two cell phones and two tablets. None could get Internet. Simple fix. Cycle the modem and router. I called the front desk. They said it was working. I said no. After arguing, they said they were going to send up the IT guy. A knock. A sweaty middle aged guy in shorts was there. Who let's their employees wear shorts anyway? He said it was our fault. Way to pump up your guests! I said no. I showed him that the devices were connected but there was no Internet. He said to look at the WiFi icon; that was proof that it was connected. I had to do a speed test on my phone and when that failed, I told him that I was in the wireless industry and I knew what I was doing. That got him to shut up long enough to consider that maybe I was right. He left. About 3 minutes later the Internet started working. The bed spread celebrated my 25th class reunion with me. The carpet celebrated its 30th. Yeah. We wanted one bed. We got two because our room wasn't done yet. How is the room not going to be done at 4? They told us that there were two queen beds. No biggie. We have a queen. They were doubles. I slept alone. :( Wow those beds were hard. After a terrible night sleeping, we discovered that the shower had this high pitch noise that ends about 10 seconds before you stop the water off. It was the if the shower could read minds. A shower that reads minds? Epic. The reason for the single star. Oh yeah. The bath. It's literally 4 ft by 4 ft. You have to stand between the toilet and the shower to open the door enough to get out. If you're a big guy you will need the help of whoever is staying with you to open the bath door but if you took the shower after them they won't be able to hear you until their ears heal from that damn shower head. Bring in some reading material if that is the case to pass the time. If you are getting married in Clare and you hate your future mother in law, book her room there. She won't be able to hear you insulting her for days after that shower or be able to Google lip reading tips from her tablet. That may help make you feel a bit better from them ripping you off. There is the added bonus of those leprechauns peeking around trees in that creepy mural. It's like looking at people that have to register every time they move. Your mother in law may need therapy after the visit and may not even go to the wedding. Next time I need to stay in Clare , I will sleep in the car in their parking lot feeling smug that I'm having a better experience than every poor soul in that building. To be serious, I hate this hotel. I will never stay there again. I'm actually angry. They don't care about the hotel, their jobs or you. I will tell everyone I know. read more

If you are looking for five stars, this isn't it. However rates are decent, location is good, rooms are clean and staff is awesome! We were in two double room. It had plenty of space in the bed area. Bed were extra firm, which is only one of the two negatives I have. Second negative is that the bathrooms are cramped but it wasn't a deal breaker because it served its purpose for one night. We stay here every time we visit family. Their free breakfast has a good variety. We will keep coming back and look forward to staying! read more

This place smelled absolutely terrible, the wifi is terrible, the beda are comfortable, but it seems they spent a lot of money on the stupid flat screen TVs that are really small. However, there is a lot of space if you need an air mattress. read more

Um....what can I say. Clean(ish). (Unimpressive) complimentary breakfast. But this place is bad. Sparse, frumpy, and even a saggy bed. Thank goodness we only stayed here one night for a wedding, because if I didn't have a ton of alcohol in my I don't think I'd have been able to sleep on that bed. read more

The hotel is old and unimpressive, there is no elevator so you have to drag your luggage up a flite of stairs if no rooms are available on the first floor. To add insult to injury I found that at $102.00 a night there was not even a fridge or microwave in the room. In short I would not recommend this hotel too anyone.. read more

I've stayed in every major and minor hotel chain, from 1 to 90 nights at a time, in almost every US state, many European countries, and Asia. I've averaged well over 75 nights a year for the past 25 years. This hotel is not good. Go somewhere else. I booked via the Days Inn website, requesting adjacent rooms, 9 weeks in advance. I had confirmations for 2 rooms, a Queen and a pair of doubles. Was told upon checking in that they no longer had adjacent rooms available, and I should have called them directly since they're independently owned, because using "The Internet" to book a hotel isn't helpful. Also, there was a surprise note that we'd be charged an "in-room safe fee" if I didn't have it removed at check-out. After checking in, with our children somewhat nearby, the clerk told us to move our car around to the end of the building and go in through the external door and up the stairs. It turns out she meant moving the car forward one parking spot and walking out to the end of the building, and then ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE CENTER. We walked twice as far than if we'd taken the stairs directly behind us. Only one of the hotel rooms opened with the key card without 20 tries. When we went back to the front desk a few minutes later (the short way because we're not idiot), the clerk had the gall to start asking if we'd stored the key cards next to our phones, and even after explaining that we'd held the cards in our hands, and that also, the few times it did unlock, the mechanism only mechanically unlocked for less than half a second, making opening the door somewhat tricky. After new cards (because of course, that's the only possible explanation for failed hardware), we had the same results and went back to request someone fix the door or give us a different room. They still treated us like idiots, but fortunately, the room next door was available, so off we went. Now, we're starting to run out of time to get ready for a friend's wedding, and so we don't have a lot of options to make more changes, as we all have to get dressed. But it was a close thing because the new (non-smoking) room reeked of cigarette smoke. So we prepared, in the world's smallest bathrooms, that smelled like Grandma hadn't cleaned since Grandpa died, in rooms that both had 1 washcloth, 2 hand towels, and 3 bath towels. Upon returning late at night after the wedding, both rooms also had problems with the keycards, but we were exhausted and once we got into our rooms we could not be bothered to mess about any longer. Unfortunately, I did not discover until morning that the room that my daughters were in DID NOT HAVE A SECURITY CHAIN. It was broken off. - The carpets were grubby, with a corn chip visible under the sofa, so much so that I brought my socks to the bathroom to put on before walking on the carpet. - My wife decided to wait until we were home to shower because she didn't think she'd get cleaner, all things considered. - The WiFi was practically non-functional, to the point where we just burned low-signal Cellular data instead. - The sofa and chair had what was probably food residue on them. - The furniture was water-damaged. - The sheets had small stains on them - The blankets were from the end of the cold-war - The comforters were both worn and stained - All of the vending machines were completely empty - The continental breakfast included in our room charges looked so disgusting that we walked away without eating. - The giant creepy mural in that area was just horrible. - The walls and ceilings looked like they'd had water damage and were poorly repaired - The beds were hard and lumpy. - The pillows were, with no question, were the worst I've ever used. I think they were balled-up worn-out bed sheets stuffed tightly into a pillowcase. WTF? In summary, stay in your car and spend the $100 on a back massage instead. You can thank me later. But no, seriously, there's at least one other hotel in town that's far better. This whole thing has soured me on Days Inn or any other Wyndham property as an option. read more

We had a good stay. No major problems or complaints. The front desk clerk was very sweet & helpful. 2nd shift -- On a personal note to her, I'm sorry we didn't bring our dog down to see you at the lobby. We dozed off. Hopefully he'll still be around on our next trip! - Thanks! read more

Clean and quiet. Staff is very attentive and responsive. WIFI is absolutely useless for anything beyond email. We had a last minute reservation change that was handled well with no charges. read more

We stayed there for a few days, the food was gross there food is cold or stale from being used everyday and instead of being thrown out. They claim the pancake maker works, but no batter why put it out if we can't use it. The gravy looks chalky and the biscuits are hard. Horrible experience of you want a decent hotel days inn in Clare is not the one for you. read more
