They cancelled the morning of my stay. They said it was because they had renovations we on going. These were major renovations. If they had planned renovations they should not have taken any reservations.

Nice quiet stopover on the way to Quebec. Revisited the colleges that our children went to and remembered when I was a student at Clarkson 60 years ago. Still a nice place to visit and the Inn was a great place to stay.

The service at The Clarkson Inn is impeccable. Very, very clean and all are very friendly. The common areas are well appointed. However, the rooms are showing signs of wear and tear. The bathrooms in particular need an update. This is still the nicest property in the area.
