The property was less than 15 minutes from Akron Civic Theatre, a big plus. The staff were nice. Rooms were spotless. The breakfast area was also very clean. Breakfast was plentiful and nice. The door closest to our room was inaccessible, which prompted the fewer stars. I would stay here again.

Good Value For The Money

This is a nice locally owned hotel. I was able to speak with one of the owners, and he has a great vision for the hotel. My room was newly remodeled, and the staff was wonderful. I will stay here the next time I'm in town.

It was okay for a quick night to rest. Not really a clean place. Found a stain in a blanket and the floor laminate was peeling off. Not super clean, mostly a truckers place to rest and shower.

Clean remodel

Rooms have been completely updated. Clean and nice. Only complaint is a little noisy. Can hear cars and doors closing. Would stay again as it’s convenient and prices right.
