Bike Week 2025

This hotel was very close to downtown Sandusky for bike week. The family run Hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. We loved the classic and vintage style of the Hotel. We will definitely stay here next year for Mike. We can recommend this place to our friends.

Cedar point visit

Was spending time at cedar point and for the price is a really good place to stay. Friendly staff and close to the park. Neighbors was a little noisy but with bike week it wasn't bad! Great place!

It’s an older hotel that appears to have been renovated. It seems like other options in the area are also older. A nice feature was a well taken care of pool with slides and a hot tub, also a fire pit to make marshmallows. But maybe the best of all was the service. People running the hotel were very friendly and accommodating. Just a really nice atmosphere.

Overall, great property for the price and location. Our doors manual lock didn’t lock but told the front desk at checkout and they took a note. Front desk was nice. Breakfast was standard carb items. Daughter was excited about the pancake machine. I would stay there again.
