Was by far the dirtiest place I've ever tried to stay. Floor was sticky, hair on the toilet seat and bathroom floor, and the door would not lock. It's not the quirky little place it's made out to be. It's just gross. Spend a little more and stay elsewhere.

Ran down and smells horrible!

DO NOT STAY HERE! Very ran down. We booked multiple rooms. Holes in bedding. We had to clean our bathtubs before we used them. One of our rooms had not been cleaned. All rooms had damage such benches broken and cosmetic marks such as big dents in the fridge. Food crumbs all over the floor and used plastic ware. The desk had marijuana and white residue lines all over it. The ceiling panels in all rooms had evidence of stained water leaks. Toilets were the only clean items. TV's didnt work, lights didn't work. Regulars were allowed to cut in the line of those checking in and were told "we can't wait until the off season". The only reason they got a 2-star was because the beds were comfy. The smell in the whole place is horrible. Cat pee or something like that strong. If you are a family, go somewhere else. If you want a romantic night, go somewhere else. Not worth being close to attractions such as cedar point.

There was no stay. We booked 2 non smoking rooms. When we went to check in they had one room as a smoking room. The girl behind the desk couldn't even get up off her butt to greet her guests (we were not the only ones) and then left the desk while we were attempting to find other accommodations. We ended up pay 3x what we had booked someplace else. We had booked with Wolf Inn a month in advance.

I would like my full refund. We did NOT stay at the Wolf Inn. We arrived at approximately 4:00 and we were given a key card. The door to the room was wide open, the tv was on and the room smelled like cigarettes. The bed was not made and had been stripped down to the mattress. There were several individuals hanging around in the parking lot. I don't really know what was going on and I won't speculate, but I walked back to the front desk and told them that we did not want to stay and that we wanted a full refund. The young woman working the front desk was kind and understanding - she said this sort of thing had never happened before, but she didn't seem to know what was happening either.

I guess when you book the cheapest hotel room you get what you pay for. You need to stop things up a little bit with maintenance and maybe change off the shower curtains. Other than that it was quiet.
