The Hotel Cleveland met our needs, as our work was very close by. However, I would not choose to stay there again. An older hotel, though elegant is not particularly comfortable. They were short of staff, so often our room was not cleaned, despite multiple requests. Though likely out of the influence ...

Bed bug alert! At first glance the hotel seemed to be clean enough to spend one night while my parent was hospitalized at Cleveland clinic.

Smelled like cigarettes at the check in desk. Had to go back to the front desk 3 times as our cards wouldn’t open our room door. Upgrades needed but for $100/night stay, it was ok. Breakfast didn’t look good so we went to a local restaurant.
