Dirty is an understatement
This hotel was so dirty. My daughter and I stayed there for a night as part of our visit to Kent State. The only positive thing I can say is that it is close to the university. The first room we were put in smelled like someone was in there eating just prior to our arrival. There were crumbs on the nightstand and the beds were dirty. When I asked to be moved to another room the desk clerk said it was probably like that because the cleaning staff were eating in there! We were moved to another room and told that was the only other option available that night. That room also had a horrible smell, but the beds were “cleaner” than the prior room. We felt there was not other choice so we kept that room. When the heat kicked on an hour later the overwhelming smell of stale weed filled the room. Absolutely awful. It was so bad we turned the window unit off for the night. I would never stay there again and would recommend you don’t either.
