I have stayed in many hotels on trips returning home this is just as fair as any other hotel.its close to anywhere you need to be in town or could want to be. My only critique is that sound seems to carry more then Other hotels maybe some thicker walls glad I’m a heavy sleeper. Other than that. It’s average and reasonable. No issues.

Stayed one night, wasn’t a bad property and was super close to Cedar Point. Would probably have to stay here again during peak season to get a full experience stay of the hotel and area around it.

This a VERY well run property. The pond/lagoon in the back look GREAT at sunrise/sunset. The property is just a 2 minute walk from the road that leads to the entrance to Cedar Point. About 2 miles east of the property there are some beautiful bird watching/hiking trails something or rather Marsh.

Older facility but fine for the price.
Hotel was fine for an inexpensive night stop. With 3 guys traveling for an event it was great to have 3 double beds for the price. Beds were not bad and front desk clerk was very friendly.

Rest easy
The service was excellent. We were able to check in before heading into Cedar Point (so before noon). The staff was very helpful and friendly. The main room was outdated but very clean. The shower may or may not have been clean...it was so old it was hard to tell if it was dirty or just extremely outdated and impossible to make look clean. We skipped the shower. The breakfast was very good with a good variety of cold foods such as yogurt, cereal, bagels, donuts, hard boiled eggs and a pancake machine. Again, the staff was very helpful so unless you want to lounge in the bath tub this is a good place to rest your head and the end of along day.

Honestly, you get what you pay for. It was cheap and close to cedar point so that’s great. Easy check in and check out, staff was nice. The bed was pretty comfy. This is obviously an older place they are updating. But the floors were so dirty they stained my feet and there were ants on the floor by the nightstand. The phone was also gross looking and stained. It was okay for the night, but I don’t think I’ll be back for awhile.
