Only thing I would “complain” about was that each bed only had two pillows and they were extremely firm. Most hotels offer 4 pillows (2 soft and two firm)

Great stay, great area especially for food choices, downfall the pool was out. Was told on the phone we would have access to kent states campus pool, then when we arrived we were not able to use the facility. Was abit disappointed in that as we were going to relax in the pool for a few hours before our event.

Not up to PAr
Staff was unfriendly and unwelcoming. Certainly made no effort to make us feel wanted. Pool was closed. Would not recommend based on staff alone.

I definitely recommend this place. We didn’t experience some of the amenities because we stayed on Christmas Eve and Christmas, but the rooms and the location are great.

Pool and hot tub closed
Very disappointed the hot tub and pool were closed and it wasn’t current information at the booking. Not sure if that’s an issue of communication with hotels.com app or hotel itself. Other than that hotel is clean and comfortable and always a wonderful place to stay
