Check in was quick, room was clean, and the air conditioner was on full blast. I stayed for two nights and had no issues. The pool was open and being used the entire time. There is plenty restaurants and things to do in the area.

My family and I had a great stay at this property. Everything was clean and comfortable and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The price was very economical and close to downtown Cleveland where we needed to be for an event. They have a HUGE heated indoor pool that my kids absolutely loved. They even have a complimentary continental breakfast in the mornings which was a pleasant surprise. The attached restaurant was lovely and we enjoyed several dinners as well as drinks there which was so convenient. I would absolutely stay here again and suggest it to anyone that needs to be in the Cleveland area.

I paid $66 for a hotel room with AC, a clean bed, great water pressure, and a fridge and microwave. Plus free breakfast. Was there a huge stain on the curtain? Yes. Was the pool closed? Yes. But $66! I had paid $41 the night before for a camping spot and a shower house. Great cheap hotel option.

Terrible experience, arrived to a rude check in. Got to the room no fridge or microwave or working tv. Asked front desk to help with tv no luck 4 days with nothing. Room keys stopped working only to find out their system broke and they were opening doors with keys. Breakfast was a joke . Surrounding area nice with lots of things around.

Unfortunately, this was one of the dirtiest hotel rooms we’ve stayed in. We found socks behind a chair, a used toothbrush on top of a wall frame, dirt behind the entertainment center, stained and wet carpet, dirty curtains, and an unclean bathroom floor. It did not appear the room had been thoroughly cleaned before our arrival. We were only staying one night, but we couldn’t wait to leave.

Unfortunately this hotel needs a lot of work. The hot tub is completely out of commission. Breakfast is only cereal, yogurt, bagels, bread etc. and fruit every other day. Our bathroom was unfinished, toilet was loud, and ants were crawling the walls and vanity. Most frustrating was requesting towels twice (because there weren't enough provided for a two night stay and asking for help with the ant situation and they never came up or brought towels.

This hotel should be demolished. Lights don’t work in the hallways, or the rooms, it’s very dirty, air conditioning doesn’t work, and it smells of weed. Our first room wasn’t clean, had no toilet paper or towels, and was 120 degrees. They gave us a new room with a giant hole in the ceiling and lights that didn’t work. The place looks like a hotel from the shining. Run far away from this place. We checked out 5 minutes after seeing the second room.

The only good thing is the pool was clean. The tub in the bathroom was filthy. There was no phone in the room. In order to get In the pool You have to walk all the way to the front desk and get an Employee to let you in. Loud music playing all Saturday night. The bed linen had stains along with uncomfortable mattresses. The door to our room looked as if it was more than likely broke into. My check-in on Expedia said 3 but I wasn’t able to check in until 4. The pool hours are 12pm-8pm. The halls reeked of marijuana. Employees were smoking weed near back door. The dude at the front desk was ok, but did not try to provide accommodations at check in although my reservation said 3. He told me I would have to pay an early check in fee. You get what you pay for. Lesson learned.

My experience at this location was so mid. First and foremost the young man at the front desk with the Afro was so non engaging and dry. Very poor customer service. When I got to my room at first glance it was “standard” hotel room but then when I got closer there was trash behind the night stand, absolutely no toiletries, no microwave, dirty toilet. There was no ice machine on the floor, you have to go all the way down to the lobby just to get ice from the front desk. I was told that the fitness center was out of order and the reason was because the door lock wasn’t broken. Not broken where I couldn’t get in but because you can just walk in. So irritating when you on your fitness journey. Then no matter how high I turned the tv volume up it would not get louder. Truth be told I wouldn’t stay again.

I lost my Driver's License and had 2 other forms of ID however the manager wouldn't accept them and kept stating that he had problems before and wouldn't let me check in. I had to call in law enforcement to verify my ID and the manager was still hesitant to check me in . However in the end he finally allowed me to check on after 2 hrs and when I finally got to the room the TV had no remote or microwave the coffee pot did not work and the refrigerator was barely cold and missing the knob to adjust temp. The A/C only worked on constant air at 60 degrees for if it shut down it wouldn't start again without unplugging it and waiting 30 to 45 minutes to reset. However the bed was comfortable and clean as well as the bathroom and shower though a bit dated and used. It was also fairly quiet so I was able to rest well. Overall I give this place a 5 out of 10 mostly for the inconvenience of not having working ice machines and TV being dated (no smart tv) so whatever Chanel surfing you got. Also could not get a wifi signal anywhere but close to the lobby very dissatisfied customer most likely won't stay again.

I had a last minute reservation for a suite. When I arrived the hotel seemed run down and dark. The lights are out by the elevators. A lot of rooms were not ready and people were waiting hours for them. My room was available. When I went up it smelled clean but when I opened the mini fridge there was a drink in there that had been left. When I poured it down the drain the sink wasn’t working. Tried to call down to the front desk and the phone didn’t work. I had to walk down to tell Lucas at the front desk. He changed my room. Second suite smelled faintly like smoke and the floor across the sink was slick and I slid. I went to call down to the front desk and the phone in that room also didn’t work. I walked down to request housekeeping in the morning. When I went back upstairs I lifted the sheet off the bed and on the flat sheet there was blood. I immediately packed and went down to check out. First a full refund was verbally accepted. Lucas at the front desk said to email Shahad the front manager. I emailed him and didn’t hear back. Expedia had to reach out to verify with the hotel that a refund was approved. When they did that it was not approved. I called the hotel to speak to the manager and he said they would charge me for the first night stay even tho I was in the hotel for 2 hours. I was frustrated but accepted it because it was better than 0 refund. I said ok thank you and he hung up on me. Extremely rude. Avoid

I could see there was work being done which I understand. The major issue I had the the fact that the indoor pool closes at 7pm. I came to town to handle some family matters during the day, expecting to relax some in the pool to find out it closed 5 minutes after I returned to the hotel.
