DoubleTree by Hilton Akron Fairlawn

Stay was nice. Staff was great. They even allowed me to check in early. My only complaints are the rooms are out dated a little.

There were a few issues within the room, that I will address upon check out, overall the hotels is nicely reserved and quiet. Love the 2 options of indoor and outdoor pool.

Unfortunately there was only one elevator working. The floor in my room was wet and the lights kept flickering so we ended up just leaving them off.

The room is in need of multiple repairs. The faucet in the bathroom was extremely difficult to turn on. The countertop in the bathroom had a large crack in it that it appears someone had tried to fix. There was a phone or cable wire running from one wall to another - like a clothes line - without being covered or affixed to the wall. One lamp didn't work, the A/C intake and exhaust vents looked like someone pried them off and they had chipped paint. Areas outside of the room were fine, but the room was in poor condition for a Hilton.

We have stayed here before and the first thing is that the key cards never work on the first try. With that said, the room is clean and comfortable, however, our bathroom definitely had some wear and tear. The shower was really hard to turn on and did not regulate temperature well. Then our view was really as bad as it gets (see pic). Overall, just okay and not a good value for the money.

My college-age son and I stayed in a suite while visiting my parents at StoryPoint down the road, so it was great having a lot of extra room and privacy. One main room includes two king-sized beds, and the other main room includes a desk (where my son parked his laptop), living area with sofa and chairs, plenty of lamps, and a kitchenette (with microwave, mini-fridge, coffee maker), which was especially helpful one night when we warmed up take-out leftovers. The bathroom includes a shower plus a jet bath tub. This Hilton is our go-to hotel every time we visit, and the location is excellent, with the mall directly across the street, and plenty of shopping and restaurants in the vicinity. My son got in a workout in the weight room. There were a few issues with the room. A door knob for the bathroom came off, a train rack in the closet was loose on one corner, and the TV in the living room section did not get service, but the front desk was very responsive and repaired the doorknob while we were gone. We just used the TV in the bedroom section. It wasn't a huge deal, but the ice machine on our floor as well as the 2nd floor did not work. Everything was very clean. Towels were changed, beds were made, and everything was tidied up every day. Sheets were not changed, which was unnecessary and much more environmental. This hotel is not super luxurious, but for family members wanting space and convenience location-wise, it's a comfortable, tasteful, and reliable choice.

This place is legit. A well-managed and well-maintained locally owned hotel. The staff is great, the service is great, the prices are reasonable, and it’s a great location.

The only problem I had was the front desk attendant, Natalie, told me I would have to get my own Ice even though all Ice machines on all floors were broken.

The hotel is old and in need of updating. For the price I paid for double king beds it was not worth it. There’s probably better places to stay.
