Every price is now filled. Glidden House is priced from its own site (gliddenhouse.com); Tudor Arms and Home2 from Google Hotels (they are on Hilton and the travel sites but not Booking.com). Two 7-night cells are estimates (marked est): Crowne Plaza and Drury are not bookable for the exact Sat-to-Sat week because of a July 4th minimum-stay, so those are estimated from each hotel's own 5- and 6-night rates. Drury is 4-star (use the "3-star only" filter if your expense policy caps at 3-star).

Bed bug screening (the near cluster)

Checked the bed bug registries (with dates) and recent reviews. Each has at most one or two OLD reports (2015 to 2023) and nothing in about the last two years, roughly baseline for any hotel.

Hotel	On-record reports	What we found
Residence Inn University Circle	None on record	No reports on the registries or in reviews.
Courtyard University Circle	1 report (Jun 2019)	One old registry report, nothing recent.
Hampton Inn Downtown	1 report (Apr 2015)	One old report, nothing recent.
Crowne Plaza Playhouse Square	1 report (May 2023)	One registry report, nothing recent.
Holiday Inn Cleveland Clinic	2 reports (2022, 2023)	Two older reports, nothing in about two years.

How to read this and what to confirm

Prices are pre-tax room rates plus about 17% Cleveland-area hotel tax (a verified 9.5% city and county bed tax plus Ohio sales tax on lodging). The exact figure shows on the booking site's taxes-and-charges line at checkout, and the suburb rate varies by municipality.
Where each price comes from: most rooms are from the Booking.com API (Jul 3-4). Glidden House is from its own site (gliddenhouse.com, marked dir). Tudor Arms and the Home2 7-night are from Google Hotels (Hilton and the travel sites, marked otA) because those are not sold on Booking.com. Crowne Plaza and Drury 7-night are est estimates because the exact Sat-to-Sat week is not bookable (July 4th minimum-stay); confirm those two by phone or on the hotel site.
Expense criteria: 3-star official and 8/10 Booking was the original filter; you added Google 4+ and TripAdvisor 4+. Drury clears the reviews but is 4-star; Holiday Inn South Independence and Tru Midtown were checked and dropped (TripAdvisor 3.4 and 3.9).
Move-in window: Sat to Sat (7 nights, Jul 4-11) and Sun to Sat (6 nights) run through unpack day (Jul 11); Sun to Fri (5 nights) to pod-arrival day (Jul 10).
Best near-home value: Courtyard University Circle, Sat to Sat, about $1,384 all-in. Glidden House is the highest-rated near you and is now priced (book on gliddenhouse.com, about $1,630 for the 7 nights).
