I think you will find the Sheraton Suites in nearby Cuyahoga Falls a good place to stay. It overlooks waterfalls, the town is smaller and quieter, and has St. Thomas Hospital, where the "man under the bed" stayed and the first treatments were given. Akron can be a bit busy and noisy on Market Street where the Hilton is. . Also, there is a National Forest in the area. There are wonderful parks in this part of the country. They have a nice restaurant overlooking the waterfalls too. Its probably less than 20 minutes from Dr. Bob's. Their number is 786-308-3000.
