Good for the price.
Great place for the money. Only complaint would be that the walls seem to be paper thin and when our neighbors got back from the bar at 1am and turned on the tv we could hear every word. They were watching big bang theory.

We stayed here for 3 nights for Cedar Point. Short drive to the park. Staff was very friendly and rooms were clean. We did utilize housekeepjng each day as we traveled with todlers. House keeping was great. Breakfast was ok. Loved the pancake machine. Kids had a blast swiming in the pool. It was just what we needed as we didnt apend much time in the room.

The people running it were awesome, the breakfast was pretty good. The actual location of the hotel is a little weird to get into. Apart from that it was good.

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.

Nice rooms, but surroundings a little off putting
It was great for our short stay. The rooms have been redone, but the outside needs a little more TLC. The staff was super nice and helpful. You can tell they have done a lot of work on this place. I think they need to watch the pool more closely, as we saw some local kids climb the fence where the office couldn’t see and used the pool.
