I apologize that your stay didn't exceed all of your expectations. Although a season property is much more difficult to manage from a training and development standpoint, there's no excuse for anything less than clean, comfortable, functional surroundings. Your comments will help us hone our focus toward constant improvement. Thanks for taking the time to review the property. Hopefully, you... More

Unfortunately, managing a season property like this one comes with some additional challenges that might not exist in a newer, full-season property. However, we continually strive to offer clean, comfortable, functional surroundings for all of our guests' pleasure. Your comments will help us to make the necessary changes to ensure this goal is met. Thanks for taking the time to... More

This place was absolutely terrible in every sense imaginable. The nightmare began with the customer service at the check-in desk. I found a blood stain on one of the comforters in my room. On further inspection, I also found hair strands in between the sheets and blanket (which felt like a brillo pad). I mentioned my findings to the "manager"... More

We needed to find a room to fit 6 to 7 people. Not many motels offer a room for that many occupants. The price was very agreeable. The room was dated, smelled musty and old, and could have been cleaner. The pillows were flat and only one a piece. We went to Wal-mart and bought our own. Someone needs to... More

Decided to take a trip to Cedar Point with friends and spend the night here after a day at the park; that decision was a mistake!!!

Our room was supposedly in the newer section, but we could not tell. The hall was stained, the windows were unable to see through, and the room smelled like must.

My boyfriend and I went on vacation with his family and this year they chose this hotel, I can only assume because of the price.
