Wonderful stay in Akron
Pros:

Beautiful hotel in a central location. Staff were so friendly and accomodating, moved our rooms so our party could be on the same floor. Tristan in the bar is great, fantastic cocktails!

Other than having to walk through the worse parts of the hotel, once you get in it’s a great stay.
Pros:

We liked the visual of the rooms and hallways as well as the rooms themselves.

Cons:

The back courtyard was the worse. I don’t think any of the cushions have been cleaned nor has the concrete been pressure washed. Very foul urine smell. The parking deck is also horrible. I’m not sure who maintains it but it also lacks care of the property.

Excellent hotel and Friendly Staff
Pros:

The hotel was very clean and was one of the best examples of turning an old office building into a hotel that I have stayed in. Often such facilities feel like they tried to squeeze too much into a small space but this did not. Very well done.

Cons:

Ticket dispenser for the parking garage was not working properly and we had to speak with Hotel staff about how to resolve. The Hotel does not manage the garage, but because guests park there it does have an impact on your stay.
The on working elevator was a bit slow when use was heavy.

Muy caro
Pros:

El hotel es bonito y el personal es muy amable. Esta muy céntrico

Cons:

La relación calidad-precio es pésima. Esperaba un hotel mucho más nuevo y mejores instalaciones por el precio que cuesta…

Very pleasant, would recommend and likely to come back.
Pros:

Nice hotel stay with friendly staff. Beds were comfortable and I loved the pillows! Enjoyed dinner and breakfast at the hotel

Cons:

No problems. A bit pricey for a single night stay. The parking garage could use more signage to get to the check in location.

Nice spot to stay during Akron visit.

The old marble hallways and beautiful trim with glass window doors were gorgeous. The room was great with robust A/C.

Very cool hotel, was a pleasant stay, any complaints are minor!
Pros:

Very nice room, location was good, parking great, enjoyed the stay for the most part!

Cons:

Room was cold and thermostat was locked so we couldn’t turn the temp up any higher. Bed is hard and uncomfortable.
