Good value and clean
The front desk attendant was one of the friendliest I've ever met in my many hotel stays. The hotel and room were clean, well lit and in good condition. The room was very cold when I arrived (15 C, 60 F), and the "blanket" wasn't much thicker than a sheet. The floor was tile, which was a real eye-opener when getting out of bed in the middle of the night. The breakfast was bare minimum at best. It was a good value for the price and despite the issues noted above, I would stay here again.

The Royal Inn is my go-to hotel when in the area. It's an updated facility which is in good shape with plenty of parking. The bathroom was very nice as was the room itself with a good sized TV and comfortable beds. I don't like the Spectrum TV service but it does offer a lot of channels. The breakfast is ok with waffles, packaged egg & sausage sandwiches and other sugary breakfast stuff. I didn't use any facilities like the gym so can't comment on those. For the conditions of the place and price it's a great value. As a home renovator myself, one thing I would do which wasn't done with the updates is change the old outlets and switches which are the only things that look worn in the place.

This was a great hotel for the price. The rooms feel like they have recently been redone to give a clean and comfortable feeling. The location was great, only 10 minutes to downtown Akron. The breakfast had a variety of options.
