After reading some of the Yelp reviews before staying at the Clarion via Groupon's Deal I went with low low expectations. To my surprise the place was not so bad. Our room was on the 4th floor and was very very spacious! It had a very cool couture feel to it and was clean and comfortable.
I guess as I'm getting older I don't enjoy being in the heart of the strip (well, I never really liked Vegas in general to begin with) the Clarion Hotel was a perfect location. Just off the strip, and just north of all the action, it was a great location to get in and around Las Vegas with ease via car. The staff was great as well. I had a couple shirts dry cleaned and they were awesome handling it.
