The Alibi Cabin - Pool, Hot Tub & Private Trails - Secluded 17-Acre Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"This property was an absolutely delightful stay. We loved the hot tub and all the thoughtful and lovely touches the owners put into the cabin. My 4yo grandson, Kaiden, had a blast discovering all the rooms and "playing" hide and seek. The owner is extremely sweet and very quick to answer any questions. We enjoyed the games provided and the visitors book is a fun idea. Kaiden loved having the room to run around and burn off some energy before getting cozy in the daybed in the loft. Speaking of beds... they were sooo comfortable! Slept like a baby. All in all it was a great experience and we absolutely plan to go back."

Hampton Inn & Suites Youngstown-Canfield

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was very nutritious with plenty of options. The male breakfast service guy was passionate about his work and very pleasant. Employees greeted me with smiles and hellos. Quiet on a Monday and Tuesday evening. Great smart TV with plenty of apps. Nice bath and body products - Hampton being environmentally conscious with the bigger bottles attached to the walls. Close proximity to restaurants and fuel station."

Best Western Plus Boardman Inn & Suites

6/10 Okay

"My family has stayed here multiple times and this time we were a bit disappointed. The pool needed cleaned. the bottom was brown colored, the hot tub was broken and we asked for an extra blanket and was told the hotel only had 1 extra blanket and didn’t carry any extra pillows. Staff was wonderful as usual Like i said this was my first not so wonderful review out of my last 4 stays there"

Holiday Inn Express & Suites North Lima by IHG

8/10 Good

"Let me start with the property was fine. The room was fairly clean, at least as clean as my own house. The bed was big with lots of pillows and while not the best mattress, firm and comfortable. I was able to change the HVAC easily for my needs. TV remote gave me some issues but I figured it out. Breakfast, especially the coffee, was PHENOMENAL! Best hotel breakfast I've ever had! Coffee machine is fantastic! Now...I did have one issue....Checking in was a nightmare! I called multiple times to let the staff know that I wouldn't be there until around 10 PM and each time they said that wouldn't be an issue. I got there right around 10 PM and NO ONE WAS THERE! I had to wait for 30 minutes for the Front desk person to return and check me in! After a long day and in the middle of a HUGE thunderstorm that was not what I expected. I did find out that the front desk guy had an asthma attack and had to run out to the local pharmacy for a rescue inhaler. He had no backup and the "back in 5 minutes" sign was just insulting. I am glad that he was okay. I also asked for a ground floor room near an exit and I got one but that exit was closed off due to construction....grrrr! Then when asking where to park, I got a "you can park anywhere" response which wasn't what I was looking for! I wanted to know how I could park and unload my stuff NEAR MY ROOM! I used to work the nightshift at a hotel. So I expected better from the staff. Breakfast alone makes this place worth it!"

Fairfield Inn & Suites Youngstown Boardman/Poland

8/10 Good

"Breakfast menu was not quite as varied as other Fairfield Inns I've stayed at, but it was adequate. Glad to have non-dairy options for my coffee at breakfast (which seems to be rare for most hotel breakfasts) Room was clean. Decent shower and comfortable bed."
