Dear Anonymous, Thank you for staying with us. You happened to be staying at the hotel during Wizarding Weekend at Kent. McKae was the front desk agent that you encountered. He went all out for the fest. We are glad you appreciated it. Hope to see you again.

The staff was extremely helpful and nice. I wish the kitchen stayed open later but they were very busy down there and there was a wedding there the next day.

Thank you for taking time to review our hotel and for giving us a 5 star rating! So many guests enjoy our location for its' proximity to Kent State University and to Kent Stage. We hope to see you again in the near future. Safe travels!

I liked the proximity to an event I was attending on Sunday night. It was in walking distance. What was disappointing was their were stains on my bed sheet and the floor in the bathroom had some "stuff on it". The exterior of the hotel looks great, the lobby also very impressive , but once I got into the room, it was a letdown. I have a reservation to stay their again on 12/11/19 however I am rethinking that as I complete this feedback.
