It’s an older building but very clean and reasonably priced. Perfect for a quick overnight stay when you’re going to Cedar Point and want a descent hotel at a reasonable price close to park.

Great location for cedar point, good stay

The location was fantastic for cedar point. For the price this is a great stay. The breakfast was pretty good, staff very friendly and helpful. They are clearly trying to improve upon a motel that was in bad shape. Some of it is good and some is lipstick on a pig. The shower leaked and kept the floor wet. The a/c pumped hard but was less than 12" from whomever was sleeping next to it, so it on/off blew on that person but the others didnt get much ac... i found that if i kept the thick blanket next to me, it could help block it so i could sleep.

Look, the staff is amazingly nice. Really they are. But we saw how they were cleaning today as we were gonna check in and for me it’s a no go. Before we went in the front we drove back by the pool where a man and woman were having seggs in the middle of the day in a very public pool!! My kids saw this.. not cool.

This place is very dirty!! My granddaughters walked in the room and took off their shoes and their feet were black from the carpet within 10 minutes. The smells in the bathroom are nasty and the beds are dirty. Had to go purchase our own pillows and sheets. We stayed two days and asked for housekeeping and the front desk said it would be cleaned by the time we got back from the water park that day. Everything was the same: dirty carpet, unmade beds. The TV didn’t work either. Asked to change rooms but they were fully booked. I trusted the reviews and the individuals must have been joking and purposely wanting families to get the worse hotel experience. Ruined our family vacation. If you book by reviews, take this one seriously. No new renovation, pure lies.

I expected better

I expected so much more out of this place based off of reviews. There was hair on the shower wall so I doubt it was clean. Room remodeling was like every other hotel in the area- shoddy. I.e. paint all over, ugly spots, and we had paint on our shower curtain. Bed was too firm. I like a firm mattress and this was just extra firm. I liked the layout of the room. We only stayed about 12 hours, but the AC did start leaking water inside while we were packing to leave.
