Okay, so I've stayed here twice and each time I needed to do some work in the afternoon and each time they acted like it was a big deal to give me a late checkout. Okay, look, I live a couple months a year in your hotel chain, don't hassle me when I request a late checkout. It's not as if every guest for the next night is checking in at 2 p.m.
The rooms are pretty nice, but you should know that this hotel has really bipolar views. The riverside has a view of a beautiful little waterfall which also creates really relaxing background noise. You can see the river better the lower your floor. The cityside has a view of, like, a couple gas stations.
The hotel has a respectable swimming pool. For some reason the designers were really asleep at the wheel when they built this place because they could have put the hot tub overlooking the waterfall but instead put it on the other side of the pool. Why even go to architecture school if you're going to miss opportunities to build hot tubs that have views of waterfalls?
The restaurant is really surprisingly pretty good and the architects were paying attention when they built it because it hangs over the waterfall.
I'll give it four stars, because it's much nicer than you'd expect from Akron, which by reputation is a city that smells like tires.
