Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel room was very dirty. There was a stain on the sheet of the bed (I documented with a photo). I also took photos of the dirty floor with sticky stuff and hair stuck to it. There were crumbs under the sheet that my 10 year old noticed. I have to say, I am not feeling impressed by Cedar Point at all. There were several water slides closed due to lack of staff. I will not be staying here ever again. I was almost tempted to leave and drive home after I noticed all of this at 8:30 when we were in the room showering after the water park. Seriously yucky!

The waterpark was great for our kids. It’s really nice that it’s attached to the hotel. The park isn’t as extensive as a great wolf type hotel but was a fun stop while at Cedar point.
