What guests think

At Super 8 by Wyndham Kent/Akron Area, reviews portray a budget-friendly stay with mixed quality, citing dated spaces and noticeable smoke odors alongside praise for some friendly staff, comfortable beds, and a convenient location near the highway and local spots.

Cleanliness feedback is often negative, with reports of dirty bathrooms and floors, stained or threadbare linens, pests in some rooms, and inconsistent housekeeping. Rooms are worn and sometimes noisy, but several guests found the beds comfortable; Wi‑Fi can be spotty and basic maintenance issues like broken lights, fridges, and key cards recur. Facilities are limited: there is no elevator, smoking rooms exist, parking is easy, and some renovations are underway, while breakfast is minimal or inconsistent despite a few positives. Expect a no-frills stop with variable standards.

The staff was super friendly, helped with the refrigerator, got extra towels for us. They appear to be updating the rooms, new TV. However no gym on site as advertised. Very much a 2 star property. The other hotel guest were questionable. Heavy pot smell on the 2nd floor, plus a visit from the local police, approximately 5 police cars and their officers showed up while I was in the lobby they asked the manager for a guest list and a master key.... had me very worried.

Fast check in process room was clean but definitely needed some deep cleaning. Was an empty bag and a ketchup packet behind the nightstand a lil dusty on top of like lamps. Bed was super comfy. They are remolding so it was a lil noisy in the morning with all the renovations going on, but I understand that’s the only time they can do them. You are allowed to have pets and the people across the hall their dog barked a little bit more than I would like to hear, but overall, I would give it a strong eight out of 10 stars

When we arrived in the room the floor was cruddy and when we told the manager he offered to "let housekeeping know about it tomorrow". We went out and bought a mop and my wife cleaned the floor -- never did see housekeeping. Our two nights were punctuated by two or three loud buzzing alarms in the hallway. We left after two days-- nobody ever even came by to empty the trash or refill the toilet paper. Unfortunately I got sick after our second day and checked out -- the manager said they might be able to receive a partial refund if Hotels.com said they could. They also charged us for bringing our puppy to the "pet friendly" establishment- as advertised on hotels.com . So at this moment I really can say nothing good about the hotel, the service, or hotels.com .

I usually don’t leave reviews but we stayed 5/3/25 and this hotel was not as expected. Rooms were very dirty ( dirty refrigerator, dusty, sticky substance on end table ), the lights didn’t work ( only had 1 table lamp and mirror light in bathroom ) and shower wasn’t even a shower ( there was no way make the shower part turn on, shower was dirty also ). The only part that was decent was the bed was comfortable but yet the comforter blanket had stains all over it. We booked 3 rooms and each room was filthy and we will never stay at Super 8 again

I got a non-smoking room but it didn’t matter because as soon as you open the door the entire building reeked of tobacco. Upon entering my room the entirety of it was covered in stains. I would not recommend. It was cheap and convenient for a VERY last minute change of plans but had I known the actual condition I would’ve stayed elsewhere.

The hotel advertised as s being smoke free. The halls and lobby were so full of smoke we could barely breathe. There was no where to eat breakfast, and we didn't want to stay in the toxic air. Linens smelled like smoke even in the 'smoke free' room. There were bugs in the sink. The microwave and refrigerator could not be plugged in at the same time. The water pressure was barely adequate. Night staff was brusque and not welcoming.

I went back to front desk and she came to room acting like I was stupid and couldn’t figure it out. She saw real quick how the cards dint work. Once I opened the door, we immediately noticed one was was not made and it was soiled. The front desk agent was still wit us at this time and she witnessed it as well. With no explanation or apology. She tried to get us to accept another room. Absolutely not!!! The hotel will not issue me a full refund. Which is absolutely ridiculous. Completely unacceptable.

recently stayed at the Super 8 by Wyndham in Kent, Ohio, and was pleasantly surprised by my experience. The location is fantastic—easy to find and close to both Kent State University and Akron, making it convenient for exploring the area. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that every detail of my stay was perfect. My room was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything I needed, including a cozy bed and fast Wi-Fi. I also appreciated the complimentary breakfast in the morning, which offered a nice selection to start my day. For the price, this hotel is an excellent value. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly yet comfortable place to stay in the Kent area. I’ll be back next time I’m in town!”

Horrible is a gift. One man was there for 1/2 hour before I TRIED to check in. No body was at the desk, the phone was unanswered, there were guests that had checked in and their keys would not work. I left after 40 minutes of waiting no desk help ever arrived. The place is a dump and needs closed down. I was forced to drive four hours to get home. Customer service could not even reach someone there. I DEMAND a FULL REFUND.

Everything in the room worked and the beds were comfortable. They had room service come around every day to ask about trash, towels, and whether I needed anything. Overall it was money well spent for the week I stayed there.

The room was clean and comfortable. Towel rack in bathroom was broken and rusted. The sink was brand new though. Signs said property was undergoing renovations. Check-in was ok but clerk was on phone and couldn't be bothered to give us info like wifi password, checkout time or breakfast hours. Morning clerk did not speak to us and made us feel unwelcome when we went down for breakfast. A simple good morning would have been nice or even a smile. Breakfast was very limited (cereal,waffles-if you could get close to machine and packaged sweet rolls) and seating area was very small with only two tables. We were on second floor and there was no elevator. I am a senior and it was challenging to get bag up the steps but I wasn't given a choice. It was okay for a one night stay.
