The rooms, property and pool are definitly not as picured. The beds can not possibly be double beds, they look more like slightly over sized twins, there was a connecting door and im pretty sure itt was just one sungle door and very thin. It sounded like someone was in the room with us yelling in Spanish. I dont know how they can have good reviews. Terrible up keep. We were exhusted at 10:30 and couldnt wait to get settled but we walked in and immediatly turned around and left. I didnt even care if I got my money back or not i was not going to stay there. I did not feel safe. The front desk gentleman was incredinly kind though. They did refund me.

Great location for cedar point, good stay

The location was fantastic for cedar point. For the price this is a great stay. The breakfast was pretty good, staff very friendly and helpful. They are clearly trying to improve upon a motel that was in bad shape. Some of it is good and some is lipstick on a pig. The shower leaked and kept the floor wet. The a/c pumped hard but was less than 12" from whomever was sleeping next to it, so it on/off blew on that person but the others didnt get much ac... i found that if i kept the thick blanket next to me, it could help block it so i could sleep.

Look, the staff is amazingly nice. Really they are. But we saw how they were cleaning today as we were gonna check in and for me it’s a no go. Before we went in the front we drove back by the pool where a man and woman were having seggs in the middle of the day in a very public pool!! My kids saw this.. not cool.
