Loved it, the people were real not like the east or west coast. This is the birth place of AA. There are alot of related spots to experience. The parks were beautiful and peaceful. Hotels were priced in line with service and comfort. The food was reasonably priced and waitor/ress we pleasant and attentive.

They have built new parks (and dog parks for dog lovers) They have built ...

I was so suprised by how dirty this place was. There was some cool historical stuff though, however, that was about it. No nightlife, no shopping, and crime looked bad.

Family Fun
By Vanessa, 09/26/05
The city of Akron, Ohio is a family oriented town. The city sponsors First Night every New Years Eve. It is a non-alcohol way to ring in the new year with your family. They have many activities for kids of all ages. Feel like taking in a minor league baseball game? Stop in and check out the local Akron Aeros. The town is full of great ...

Akron
By miss tia, 09/26/05
Akron, Ohio is a great place for history buffs. You have the beautifully restored Civic Theatre downtown, the homes of the Rubber Barons on Portage Path and Merriman, the home Thomas Edison was married in, old churches, the canal, and too much to list!
What i dislike about all this history, is that you have to find most of it on your own. ...
