This hotel is dated but is ETREMELY CLEAN and well maintained. The lobby is luxurious and the rooms are a throw-back to simpler times. Will definitely be staying again.

The exterior of the facility was poor-overgrown grass, cracked concrete in the parking lot. But the room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The pool was also in working order. This motel has great potential.

The elevator didnt work, the wifi was not working on the 2nd floor where we were staying. I wasnt told about breakfast. I was lied to that someone was out fixing the wifi and would call me when they returned. I was told they would try to fix it or change my accommodations and nothing was done. They did give me another blanket when asked but i had to come down and get it.
How we were given our room number and combination for our door.

The property was older than some, but overall very clean. There was a musty smell in the room but it was clean. For what I paid to stay there one night it was worth it. A little off the beaten path, so it was very quiet. I’d stay there again.

This place should not be listed on Expedia! I’m disappointed because I paid decent money. Yes it was across the street from cedar point but that doesn’t make it a good property and I would have expected Expedia to do some research before including such a dilapidated hotel (I wouldn’t even call it that)

Nice place to stay if going to the park. The front desk staff is very nice and helpful. Pool water was clear and warm. Have stayed there twice and will be going back again in a couple weeks. It is a dated hotel but clean and perfect for what we need.

This was pretty good for a budget hotel. The area was very quiet and we got a good night's sleep. The air conditioning system did not do a good job of pulling humidity out of the air, so the carpet and bedding felt perpetually a little sticky though.
