The property seemed to be a converted motel and the room was very nice and new. Biggest problem I had is that there is no staff/front desk, they gave me a code to access the room but the vode stopped working about an hour after arriving. Then around 9-10pm someone else was trying to get into our room, their code seemed to work but luckily I had the door double locked

The location was great! It’s right on the doorstep of Cedar Point, literally a 7 minute drive. The beds were comfortable. However, the cleanliness could’ve been better. There were dead bugs all around the window and bathroom. The shower curtain wasn’t the right size so water from the shower got everywhere on the floor. The sheets had stains on them and there wasn’t a trash can in the main room, other than the bathroom. We had the bunk bed room and it was so uncomfortable to climb the steps. The wood isn’t rounded so the edges really hurt and for tall people it’s very hard to climb since the bed is close to the ceiling. The amenities also weren’t available, no games in the back or anything. Other than those things, things were great!

Loved the easy online check in and out. The room was clean and the bed comfortably. The only knock is the overnight trains you’ll hear when sleeping.

Muh hotel The room that we were assigned was not cleaned. Bed was unmade and there were towels on the floor. We got a new room which was better. Also, our code was not sent to us for the door, we had to call to get it. It was an ok stay.

Bed spread was not clean. If you dont want to wash them, dont use white!! Walls are paper thin, enjoy everyone's business! Not worth the rate.

Had the family suite. Room clean. TVs are humongous. WiFi is super fast. Love the common area, where you can get ice and refill your water bottles with filtered water. Staff is friendly and very helpful.
