This property is what it is -- an 80-year old, family-run, seasonal motel that boasts nothing more than a comfortable bed and a clean room (and cable tv). No frills, no extras. And every few hours (including at night) a freight train screams by just across the street. Now that we've got that out of the way, I can tell... more

We just stayed at the Maples Motel and had to change hotels. They were very kind folks and returned our 2nd day stay. We were first taken aback by the musty smell of our room but figured we had little choice at the hour we arrived. The beds were hard, the train goes by what seemed like every 20-30 minutes... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Maples Motel for the last two nights of our road trip vacation to visit the African Safari Wildlife Park and Cedar Point. We stayed on Labor Day weekend, and when every other hotel in the area had nearly tripled their rates for that weekend, we were able to get a cozy little cottage... more

We have been going to the Maples Motel for the past 28 years and have always had a good stay. Atmosphere is cozy and we have always been treated very nicely. It's a nice place to unwind with your family. more

The staff is always friendly whether on the phone or in person. There are trains that pass by, but Maples Motel offers ear plugs (which work beautifully,... more

We (myself and 5 very picky teenage girls) staryed at the Maples Motel for 2 nights for our trip to Cedar Point. i read reviews of several motels in the area. We have visited Cedar Point for many years and I have been very disappointed with our accomodations in the past. We decided to take a chance on the Maples... more

Clean, air-conditioned, double room with cable tv and a nice pool for under $70 (with tax). I don't know what more you could possibly ask for in that price range! Throw in a friendly staff and you have a comfortable, affordable hotel within minutes of Cedar Point! more
