You can tell the owners and staff take pride in their motel. It's an older place, but rooms were clean and well maintained. Great location and close to Cedar Point. The breakfast was a nice bonus. I met the lady that works it and she was so nice. Would definitely stay again!

Clean hotel to lay your head down
I liked that it didn't feel like a chain. It was very clean, and the location was close to the highway. They offered free bottled water at check-in. Jetted tub was nice. Although they had shampoo, body wash, and lotion, there was no conditioner available. The room was nice and spacious. Everything was very clean in the room and in the common areas. The breakfast was pretty minimal, with some fruits, mini pastries, a couple of cereals, and a pancake maker; but any free breakfast is better than nothing. Bed was decent enough, but there didn't seem to be enough layers (just one topsheet and a fleece blanket), so I wouldn't call it cozy. Overall satisfactory place to rest for the night.

So the manager was very cranky even other people mentioned that. Not helpful at all. There was a constant leak or drip from the overhang entering the room. There was a fridge there was updated bathroom those were the good things. Couldn't pull the curtain all the way shut it was a huge gap people could see in. It was a place to stay fairly clean ... Price fit the room. If you're just looking for a place to stay it's okay.

Quiet, convenient location. Breakfast was far below expectation. Staff was mostly courteous. Desk personnel, at check-in and check-out, seemed to be bothered by the interruption of a guest requesting their attention.

Stayed for a weekend to visit Cedar Point. Hotel quiet, conveniently located. Breakfast was pancakes, bagels, assorted muffins, oatmeal, juices - nothing fancy but enough to start day. Pool closed for season, but looked like it would be refreshing - it had a slide and hot tub. Will stay again

The hotel is about as close to the Cedar Point causeway as possible. The staff checked us in quickly and gave us bottled water to drink. The room was clean and the beds were nice. The television had surprisingly good sound. Parts of the room looked updated. The air conditioner worked great. There was a fridge in the room. The location is quiet, but there isn't much within walking distance. The free breakfast was as basic as could be. I actually couldn't find much to eat and would just prefer a little discount on the room rather than pay for the "free" breakfast. Currently this is our go-to hotel when visiting Cedar Point.
