This hotel desperately needs some upgrades. It is clean and the staff were all very helpful and welcoming. They need better lighting in their parking lot. The breakfast was pretty bad; just pre-packaged muffins and oatmeal. Akron is a dying city and the area is sketchy. The hotel clearly does things to mitigate this like lots of cameras and lots of exits but only one entrance; however the guest should be warned, I don’t think there is a nice part of Akron.

Had to ask for additional towels, only provided one incomplete set, as well as extra blanket as not provided in room. Bed uncomfortable and old. Room spelled like cigarette smoke and staff acknowledged it did.

unable to re-enter hotel without coming through lobby, had a dog and had no wear close to take her to go to bathroom, no iron in room, had to ask for one at front desk. No hair dryer, no coffee in room. Weekend prior we stayed at another hotel in anothe city and it was so nice and compared to it this hotel was very poor.

Very strange and weary setup. People were outside of my window mulching/landscaping at midnight. The place looks like it’s in just a lot of chaos right now or maybe a remodel. There must be some type of security issue there because they have you go through a process that I’ve never dealt with before checking into a hotel. Lots of exits no entrances. You can only enter from the very front of the building, which is very inconvenient. Just a very uncomfortable place overall. There’s a gas station by the parking lot, but other than that, I didn’t see any places to eat or anything to shop at.

Not bad and weird at the same time

The room was very clean and in good condition. The room itself was updated. The furniture was somewhat dated. The strange thing was that there was no room phone. There were also no charging ports.

I only stayed a few hours(6). There was no running water when I got in due to a main line issue.
