Best Hotels near Laurel Square Shopping Center, Brunswick

I don't know what hotel those other people were writing about. I found everything to be working. The man who checked me in was friendly and helpful. Checkout was very easy too. The room was spotless. The bathroom was very nice for the price point. The only thing I would change is that there was no microwave in the room. This is an amenity I often take advantage of for reheating leftovers from my meals. Also, there was no additional charge for breakfast as several other reviewers have stated. Aside from this, I will definitely stay here again the next time my travels have me in the Strongsville area.

I'm not from out of town, but needed a room for the upcoming night, due to repairs at my house. I checked the rates and availability online before arriving. Good location right off of Bagley Road, near I-71. Near restaurants, the hospital, and movie theater. Downside: you can tell as soon as you pull in the driveway, that something is off. A group of people, who appear to be the housekeeping staff, are lounging on the sidewalk, conversing (or, ”conversatin'”) right outside the entrance. Not a welcoming sight. Walking in, you notice the trash on the carpet. I didn't take a close look, but crumpled papers or wrappers or whatever scattered around the check-in area. Again, that kind of thing does not give you the feeling of welcome or cleanliness. I waited while the desk clerk talked to a guest/friend/coworker- I don't know. They seemed amused that I was standing there. The clerk greeted me. I told her that I wanted to know if I could reserve a room. She said the rooms aren't ready until 2pm- it was 11 o'clock am. I asked if I could simply make a reservation, to check in later. I had my suitcase with me. She said no. I would have to wait until 2, even to make a reservation. ??? Judging by appearances that this was not a nice place, I thanked her and decided to move on. Eventually checked in to the Quality Inn in Brunswick. Cheap rates are not worth this kind of environment.

No complaints or issues with our stay. I will add that we recently stayed at a ”very close-by” hotel to this one that we were not happy with. Our experience at Home2Suites was perfect! Clean room ( and bath!!! ) Friendly Staff. Free wifi, coffee in the lobby, and good breakfast selection. All good things to say about this hotel stay.

I rarely stay at Residence Inns but found myself in need of a place to sleep after my moving company picked up my items but before I relocated to a new city. This Residence Inn is very nice and it's in a good location right off of 77. The suite was clean and intuitive and very comfortable. The front desk staff was friendly. No issues at all.

I have been to many Hampton Inns in the past, but I will say that this is one of the poorest run overall. So poor in fact that I asked the GM to call me so we could discuss my concerns. Perhaps he called you, but not me. The rooms are very nice, clean and comfortable. No problem there. But, pray tell, how does the TV work? The most confusing station selection process I have ever encountered. And I never mastered it. The desk clerk indicated that this is a fairly frequent complaint. So why doesn't the hotel put in each room some instructions on how to use the TV? Also, they have a strange shower in our room. Turn the handle all the way on and it is supposed to get hot. Right? Not here. The more you turn the handle, the colder it gets. If you want hot water, you turn the handle only a slight bit beyond off. The mot negative thing is the buffet breakfast. The worst in all of the system. The oatmeal was very watery and runny. Not pleasant. Try and find some cold cereal. Only a couple of boxes of corn flakes were displayed. That's it. Last time we were here they had to go in the back and find some cold cereal. The waffle maker batter was liquid cement. Took several minutes to fill the cup. Thus the resulting waffle was mostly uncooked. No pastries like other places, either. No bananas, too. Way below the standards of others we have been to. It seems like this place is convenient and since it is near an airport they feel that people want a quick in and out. And they sure lived up to that requirement. Find another accommodation.

The hotel has a welcoming staff with spacious common spaces and rooms. The Orbit stays true to its name, playing on the theme, with colors, wall coverings, and appointments reminiscent of the early 60's when there were 7 astronauts, a Mercury program, and a new organization called NASA. It sits in the shadow of the NASA Glenn Research Center and across the street from the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. The room had a mini-fridge, microwave, K-cup coffee maker, and a nice big bathroom. The breakfast bar was well appointed with something for everyone to include an automatic pancake maker straight out of the Jetson's! I will be back.

Very clean, the room is large, the kitchen is fully furnished

I have been staying here for months, and this is hands down the WORST hotel chain in North America; honestly, I would expect better service at a Motel 6. If you are heading into town, I would recommend The Crown Plaza; it’s cheaper and much nicer; the amenities are 1000X nicer, they have hot food, and the staff is not RUDE, LAZY, or STUPID; heck you can go down the road five minutes and stay at The Best Western Plus for $50 a night and have much better amenities and a well-trained staff. It really shows what larger chains offers when it comes to Human Resources and Training Programs, and their parent company is heading into bankruptcy; hence why their prices are too high. I have several hundred hotels stays under my belt, and a hotel lobby should be welcoming and inviting, this one looks like a large storage closet/abandoned building/war bunker. They have stacked up furniture everywhere, garbage/empty boxes all over the place, and 10+ signs saying no guest access. Then when you get into the staff, it gets WORSE, much WORSE. Carla, The President/CEO of Sonesta Hotels (in her mind), has absolutely no business being in Guest Services, and you have to deal with her STUPIDITY, RUDENESS, and LAZINESS 80% of the mornings here; and talk about getting your day off to a HORRIBLE start; and it’s a race situation since I am white. If you need to get anything complete and she is working, your best bet is to wait till she leaves for the day or find a work around. She will literally talk in circles and confuse you, just so she can avoid doing any type of labor (she actually steals your intelligence and drive), she gets ANGRY when she has to get off her chair; grant it, she is normally sleeping in that chair, hiding behind a sign; hence why I was order not to use the dinning-room/war bunker entrance for coffee, and instead have to walk all the way around the building in the cold (she can’t hear me come in when I use the dining room entrance). I had an employee STEAL a package delivery, and then I got stuck working with the WORSE management team in the world. I was accused 6 different times of running a scam for $48; Please, I make 5x that in the amount of time it took to correct the PETTY THEFT. Santo demanded proof the package was delivered, which I supplied immediately, then 3 messages at the Front Desk and 1 phone call later zero response, I finally called corporate, sure enough, Santo calls the next morning ANGRY because I call corporate. When I first got here two months ago, I stayed right next to the noisy highway that pours pollution out, can’t be healthy, so I moved to the other side of the property, when I checked in the first time, I was given one key, on the second one, I was given two keys by Elissa. With the known THEFT problem here, I was straightening up for the 3rd time, since housekeeping was a no-show/no-call for two appointments earlier that week, and realized, I better grab that second room key before housekeeping STEALS it, low

Very clean
