We chose to stay here because of the short drive to Cedar Point. The room was clean, the breakfast was more than I expected, and the staff made checking in and out very easy. I would stay here again if in the area.

For the price, this hotel was excellent. Staff was very friendly and helpful, all spaces were clean and well maintained. Rooms and beds were comfortable with good pillows. Continental breakfast was well stocked and good quality. This was a perfect spot for us, and so close to Cedar point. We will stay again next year! Thank you to the staff!

Pros of this property Clean rooms, no dust, dirt or musty smells Clean bedding. No visible stains. Towels were replaced each day The room had laminate floors instead of carpet. My personal favorite, I was given cold bottled water so I had something to drink at midnight when I arrived! Definitely a wonderful personal touch this place did. And I will totally return just because this was such a personal touch that no other hotel has done. Cons I could hear people talking really clearly in the room adjacent! So not very private. I could hear freight trains several times during my 2 nights stay. They woke me every time. So it’s not the quietest place. No elevator so you’re lugging everything up a flight of stairs. If you’re on the 2nd floor. Overall nice place. I would have given a 5 rating. But being woken by trains several times made me extremely tired for my day at Cedar Point.

The rooms are outdated but clean. We stayed here after visiting Cedar Point. Location wise, it doesnt get much better than this. The price was fairly cheap, but again, the rooms are older but clean. If you're looking for a place just to sleep after visiting CP, you can't go wrong.
