Ravenna Reed Memorial Library Hotels

"The shower was dirty"

"Good experience overall. Relatively clean but aged and worn carpet. Staff was friednly and attentive. Shout out to Sai for being very helpful. "

"Nice place. Friendly staff."

"Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Beds were incongruous… one bed was very comfortable, while the other had a less comfortable, very springy-like mattress, but acceptable. Nice to have a microwave and mini refrigerator. Clean bathroom with adequate space and counters. Coffee & ice by the lobby was convenient. Front office staff was fairly friendly. AC/Heat & Fan unit easy to operate. The only negative was the strong smell of cleaning product (like Pine-Sol) that was eminent and noticeable during our entire stay (maybe somewhat less noticeable on Day 2, but still present). Would recommend highly, due to comfort, cleanliness, and cost!!"

"First thing when you walk in, you get knocked down by a horrible waft of unbearable cologne or air freshener. It smells terrible and was way too strong. Rm. 207. We had no hot water in the room all weekend despite running the faucets for 15 minutes. The faucets on the sink were loose and the toilet barely flushed. The manager came in and fixed the sink fixtures and tried to fix the toilet but it didn't make much difference. Overall the room was poorly maintained. We found a squished bug in the silverware drawer and the second day, a LIVE carpet beetle larvae in the sink. Talked to the front desk and was told they were sold out of rooms and the Mgr. wouldn't be back until Monday. For over $700 for 3 nights, not Acceptable!!!"

"An hour after checking in, and during Kent State University graduation weekend, the hotel suffered a power outage. I understand this is a regular occurrence that usually resolves in a few hours. However, when I checked out the next day, power was still out. Third floor hallway was dark, had to use my phone light to find my room (power in my room worked). Strangely, the microwave in my room started buzzing with the glass table circling inside, only way to get it to stop was to unplug it. Elevators didn't work, had to use the stairs. The staff was phenomenal managing a very difficult situation."

"Restaurant was great. Room was clean but dated. Staff was very helpful and gracious especially with having our dogs with us. Provided a room that accomodated them and easy to take them out. Parking in back was also convenient."

"The staff was helpful and professional and everything that they did"

"I went to the SPEAKEASY bar attached to the property at 11:50pm only to find out it was "last call" and they closed at midnight, on a Saturday! I wish I had known that as that was the catalyst for spending over 200.00 for a one night stay in Akron. Also, when taking a shower, the hot water pipes were shaking so bad and making a shrill sound, like the pipes were going to burst behind the tile, I had to cut my shower short as it was at 7:00am on a Sunday morning and thought I would wake up the guests next to me. Not up to Hilton standards in my opinion. It will take a lot to have me stay there again!"
