There was no staff on property which was a surprise. Room was small for 2 queen room but it served its purpose. We used a code to get in our room, no issues. At one point someone was trying to enter a code on our door. It didn’t work but if u stay there, use the latch lock just in case

Not Yet

They are remodeling "I get that" however.... I went there to go to Cedar Point and figured I would just use the room to get some sleep, so didn't need fancy. Ok, so the room had an air conditioner from 1975 and it could not cool the room. I sat on the bed and it flipped up, like a see saw. The room was like a remodeled garden shed. They did have real hotel rooms but they were in the remodel process. It will be fine in a year or so but not ready for guests yet. This time hotels.com got me.

We were amusement park hopping, so Quality Lodge was our first and last stop before heading home. When we walked into the room on stay 1, the room had a distinct smell to it. Not terrible - but not exactly pleasant either. I couldn't place it until I took off my shoes and realized the carpets were wet.....they had just been shampooed. Not sure if this was routine maintenance or if something had happened with the previous guest. The room for stop 2 smelled more normal.

The location was excellent, especially for somewhere just for spending the night. Room was very clean. The area around may feel slightly unsafe at night if alone but other than that, I would definitely stay again!

Try sleeping in a sauna

The air conditioning doesn’t work. I was one of several guests that had our doors open with the fans they left in the rooms attempting to cool the room down to the outside temperature of 80. There were even a couple who gave up and slept in their cars. There is nobody present that works for the motel. When I called the number on the office door, they placed me on hold for 25 minutes at which time the phone system ended the call. Not that it mattered at that point but the tv didn’t work either. Absolutely will never consider them again, nobody else should either.

This is the perfect cheap hotel if you’re looking for a very basic overnight stay, or a basic stay in general in a CLEAN room. Check-in was perfect, got the room number and door code ahead of time so when we arrived we just walked into the room and that was it. Most cheap motels are dirty or scary and still charge nearly $100 because they have a coffee maker in the room. This place is much less expensive and very well-kept, doesn’t have a coffee maker or desk but had two night stands and a mini fridge, what else could you need from this price point? Thank you for offering this kind of motel for travelers looking for a bargain but not wanting to compromise on cleanliness and safety in exchange!

Hotel Stay

The place was nice but far from being fancy. There was no housekeeping so if you needed anything you had to contact the owner. The shower bathtub had no anti slip pads or no hand rails which is very dangerous especially when you're traveling alone if you fal the tub you are screwed. The toilet was very low to the ground which isn't good for someone that is tall or experiencing back problems. But it located about two miles from Cedar Point if that is why you are in Sandusky Ohio and in a very safe location. The lady owner was very nice and helpful and you can't beat the nightly rate. Again it's far from Paradise but for myself it works.
