“Great hotel, close to Cleveland, right off highway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 November 2011

We booked the Holiday Inn through hotwire.com and got a great rate. Rates were much cheaper than in downtown Cleveland. Rooms were clean, staff was friendly. Only a 10 minute drive to downtown Cleveland, access to highway just minutes from the hotel. Plenty of breakfast options within a block (Bob Evans, Starbucks, Denny's), and is close to the Winking Lizard Tavern, which I would recommend if you are a beer drinker. The hotel bar was alive and bumping but the crowd was a bit older (40-60 year olds). Big pool on site with sauna. All in all, a great place to stay, we didn't have any problems.

“Great for Business Travel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2011

I recently stayed at this hotel for business. The staff was very accomodating. they went out of there way to ensure my requests were served. The room was your standard room but it was very clean however, a bit worn. They are currently in the process of updating the hotel so I am sure the rooms will be redone during this time. Stayed on the executive club floor so I never had to use the coffee maker in the room because they had coffee with various options in the club room. They also had a continental breakfast in the morning as well as complimentary appetizers, beer and wine in the evening. The club room was also a good place to escape for a change of scenery from your room. Nice cushy sofas and chairs as well as flat screen tv;s. Not much around the hotel except for some decent restaurants. I would def stay here again for business but not a good location for leisure travel.

“Perfectly okay hotel, with extra perks for swingers.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 October 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

Stayed here with my Dad on a Friday night. He was a little chagrined during our 9pm check-in because the bar and lobby were seriously hoppin' with cougars and gents with loosened ties. The desk clerk told us the club was just warming up, and stayed open till 2am -- and more importantly, that he couldn't promise we wouldn't hear it from our room. But we didn't hear anything (rm 455, if you're seeking that particular magic.)

Other than that it was perfectly okay in every way -- not spectacular, but fine. Dining room staff in the morning were really lovely and deserve a mention.

“Nice - but certainly has its flaws”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2011

My husband is having an extended stay at this hotel, there for 6 weeks due to work. We visit him off and on and during our many stays here we have made a few observations...

*Very friendly and helpful staff
*The rooms dont offer that much - my husband had to request a minifridge and microwave for his room otherwise it was just a standard tv and bed setup
*In the first room my husband was in there was black mold on the bathroom ceiling
*In the second room my husband was in (moved due to the black mold in the first) - the plug for the drain in the tub was broken
*The restraunt / bar downstairs has lots of fun things going on that are fun and entertaining.
*The bar staff are very friendly.
*The booths in the bar are badly worn with many visible rips and tears - they need to be replaced
*There is a pool but no hot tub


We like the place, but its really starting to show wear and tear.

Room Tip: Try and get a room by the elevators
