Cambria Hotel Akron - Canton Airport
We were displaced due to a power outage. This hotel was basic. The bed was uncomfortable, sheets were scratchy and thin. All towels were very stiff. It felt cheap for the price but functional.

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cleveland Macedonia
Hotel is dated, beds are small and it needs to be cleaned up. There was damage to the walls in the hallways and hotel. The elevator needed to swept and cleaned. Breakfast was what you’d expect for a continental breakfast.

They could use a breakfast bar. I thought they had one so I was on a quandary about what to do. My desk person was very helpful.
