Welcome

Welcome to the Accessible Roadtrip Blog. I will be posting information about how accessible places I have been are, including information on bathrooms, restaurants, and hotels.

Clarion Inn – Grand Junction Colorado


August 19, 2013 – August 23, 2013

This is a fairly large hotel with two floors but without an elevator. There was some handicap parking in front with an automatic door to get into the building which I didn't actually ever use. We had to go to the back and to door F to get to our handicapped accessible room that was supposed to have two doubles and a roll in shower. But at door F there was no cut out to get onto the sidewalk. So we had to go down a ways to door E. There were no handicap parking spots near either door, but we never had trouble finding room to park.
 
When we finally made it to our room it was very tight and crowded but I could get between the beds if I backed in.
 
The table worked okay but it was difficult to get to. The light switches were very high especially for an accessible room.
 
 
The sink was good height but the bathroom door had to be shut for me to get there as it opened right in front of the sink.
 
The bathroom was not all that big and was kind of crowded my shower/ toilet chair worked fine for the toilet.
 
The "roll in shower" was too narrow for my shower chair so I had an interesting shower sitting off-center with two wheels in and wheels out. My lift could not go under the bed so we had to slide me to the corner of the bed which happens in most places.
