“What this place offers is a clean, recently renovated stay near the interstate, a good jumping-off point for Akron/Canton and Kent. I appreciate the security-locked doors and complimentary breakfast; that, plus friendly staff, can make an overnight a surprisingly pleasant experience. If you need an affordable room in the area, this could be it.”
