I would stay here again!
Pros:

It was clean. Microwave in room. Comfortable beds. Great television channel options. Evening entertainment available. Snack/needs store stocked extremely well. Located near major highway, several restaurants and entertainment. Near walking trails and Cuyahoga County parks and recreational areas also. Ample parking…

Cons:

Hallway carpet on first floor starting to roll up in middle. I tripped… Doors opening and/or closing was loud and vibrates or rattles our door (perhaps adjust door strike)… The window blind was broken and didn’t go up or down properly… No room fridge.

Pros:

I liked the bedroom size and how comfortable the beds were.

Cons:

My reservation had breakfast included but when I arrived at the property there was a sign letting guests know that the restaurant was closed for a private event so the other guests wouldn't have any breakfast option.
They Didn't refund anything or provide any voucher for us as an option.

The swimming pool water was really cold.

There was a guest next door making a lot of noise after 10:00 p.m. more than once.

We booked two rooms for to adults, a child, two grandparents, and I wouldn't recommend these hotel for a family. They treated us as if we were not important at all as they had a bigger event happening there.

Great location , with comfy bed & pillows
Pros:

Location, comfy bed & pillows, clean bathroom

Cons:

Some food on the ground next to the bed did not get vacuumed before I checked in. . Infact a few of us were there in different rooms and never saw cleaning crew with vacuum cleaners.
The paid breakfast on our first morning the buffet was cold. I guess the burners were not turned on. We ate cold eggs, potatoes, & bacon. We did mention it to staff.
