disappointed....
Not recommended
I would not stay here again. It was cheap, I'll give them that, but it was not clean. It had ants on the floor. There was lint left on the floor, so it had not been vacuumed. There was a used bar of soap and 1/2 full lotion bottle left in the bathroom. The ceiling tiles in the bathroom had water damage. It was not a comfortable stay to say the least. Cheap but clean is one thing. I learned a valuable lesson here......

Very dirty and outdated hotel. The carpet was not clean and the beds were dirty. The soap bar in the bathroom was opened and used. There wers also small ants in the room near the front door. Would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone. Will never stay there again

Cedar Point Disaster
Not Good
Sheets were covered in hair and only one worker so no one to do anything about it. Breakfast was a joke. Way busy and not even any water. Overall, website makes hotel out to be way nicer than it is.

Cheap and close to Cedar Point BUT very dirty!!!!!!!
My boyfriend and I along with our 2 boys had stayed at this hotel after a day at Cedar Point. We booked it due to the fact that it was so close to the amusement park. I had previously read the mixed reviews and decided to give it a chance anyways. BAD IDEA!!! The front desk clerk was very friendly which made checking in very pleasant. After getting the room key...it was all downhill. The musty smell of the room hit us in the face as soon as we opened the door. There were cobwebs on the window and bugs in the corners of the room as well as on the headborard. LIVE BUGS!!!! The carpets were filthy. Our sons wouldnt sleep with the blankets on the bed bc they had bodily fluid stains on them. The sheets had what looked like small black hairs ALL over them! I couldnt believe it! It was horrible. We will never stay at this hotel again. Dont chance it like we did. Dont stay at this hotel.....EVER!!!!!!
