Our room felt outdated, with water stains on the bathroom ceiling, and chips in the wood furniture. Lobby was spacious and clean, and the staff are very kind. We did not utilize the on-site restaurant or the gym so I cannot rate those amenities. Complimentary coffee, tea, and water available in the lobby. They also offered a parking garage pass, at a discounted price, which was helpful. Hotel is in a great location, with lots of eateries within walking distance. This would’ve been a great hotel if the room was in better condition.

We have always found this hotel as inviting and comfortable. We were disappointed this time that the gym was set at an uncomfortable 82 degrees and there was no way to change it. I spoke to the desk clerk and asked if the heat could be lowered or turned off in the gym. She said she’d speak to her manager, but nothing was changed by the next day. It was very uncomfortable.

The pros: Walking distance to many restaurants and friendly staff.

The cons: The maintenance and cleanliness of this hotel is terrible. Hallways are full of chipped and peeling wallpaper, the shower and sink had pink rings of soap scum and mildew, there were stains on the walls and carpets, and handprints from previous guests on the windows.

Our stay was a disaster. It started off well when we received a free room upgrade. I was so excited when I saw the huge soaking tub, only to find out when I went to take a bath that there was no plug. I called down to the front desk, but they said they didn't have one for me. Since I hadn't been expecting the tub in the first place, I didn't feel like I could be too upset about there not being a plug. However, when I went to take a shower instead, there was a hair at the bottom of the shower. The absolute worst was when we were getting ready to leave the next morning. We found a pair of dirty underwear under one of the beds!!! I was horrified. The lady at the front desk was apologetic and made some notes for the housekeeping staff. They did waive our $14 parking fee, so, I guess there was that. However, for what this place charges it was not at all worth it. We won't stay here again.

The rooms are keep clean and tidy, they are even planning on remodeling the rooms soon!! (So I have herd) the staff went above and beyond. My travel partner and I arrived a day early luckily they we nice, and extremely helpful in figuring out the best corse of action to get us settled in! The only complaint was breakfast dident come with the room. They did although serve breakfast at an additional cost at there little restaurant. The bar was ok i was disappointed at the strange hrs they keep, like not open on Sunday and Monday. It was not that big of a deal there were other places a short walk away that did serve those days.

With all said and done I would definitely stay again but not through a travel site, just straight from the sorce, they do have things like alumni discounts I was unable to utilize.

Our stay was short but nice. My only complaint was the bed. I know everyone has different preferences as far as pillows and mattresses, so this could very well be just me, but the mattress was too firm and the pillows were too full for my neck. My husband slept well, but I didn't.
Other than that, it was a nice, clean hotel. The room was lovely and very spacious and the staff at the desk were polite and helpful.
Location was perfect, as we were in town for our daughter's college orientation and it was a short drive back to campus.
I would definitely stay again, but I'll remember to bring my own pillow.

An hour after checking in, and during Kent State University graduation weekend, the hotel suffered a power outage. I understand this is a regular occurrence that usually resolves in a few hours. However, when I checked out the next day, power was still out. Third floor hallway was dark, had to use my phone light to find my room (power in my room worked). Strangely, the microwave in my room started buzzing with the glass table circling inside, only way to get it to stop was to unplug it. Elevators didn't work, had to use the stairs. The staff was phenomenal managing a very difficult situation.

Cleanliness was great! Staff was kind and attentive. Room service from the restaurant was AMAZING service, quality and taste! Loved how spacious the room was. The mattress was AMAZING. Unfortunately, there was no hody wash, the bathroom was SUPER small for the price and room, and there was only the tinest niche in the shower wall to set items and they fell out over and over and over… toilet lid and shower door SLAMMED shockingly loud (especially shower) if you did not take the time to slowly close manually. And the pillows were twice as high as normal pillows

Ive stayed at this hotel many times with 5 star experiences. The ceiling over the shower stall was cracked and mold was forming. It looked more like a leak from above than typical moisture build up. The TV swivel did not work and it was so crooked I had to place items underneath it to keep it close to being straight.
