The staff here are amazing. They are friendly, helpful and thoughtful. A buddy and I were outside smoking cigars by the water when a person, possibly an owner, came across the parking lot to speak with us. We assumed that we were going to be asked to go back inside as it was kind of late. To our surprise, he asked us if we would like some wood for the fire pit. He proceeded to get wood and started a fire for us so we could continue to enjoy the evening and our cigars. Thank you to the gentleman!

We were here for Cedar Point HalloWeekend so the location was great. The hotel has obviously gone through extensively interior remodeling but the room was anything but soundproof. It was as if a window was open how loud the flocks of geese and the multiple train passes sounded. Out of 3 rooms only one had an exposed pole to hang clothes. The mini-fridges are noisey.

I have never in my life refused to stay in a hotel. But there was no way I was going to stay in this place and would never recommend it. I wouldn’t even let my dog sleep there. It was filthy, spider webs with spiders everywhere, dead bugs everywhere, the second room was just as bad. There were dead bugs and dead roaches smashed all over the walls, filthy and it just turned my stomach. They should tear that place down. I went to a different hotel to stay.
