It was a very nice place to stay clean friendly staff showers were nice and hot. Very quiet. There will be staying again this summer.
Room was clean, staff was friendly, breakfast was good (but limited), close to cedar point which was our intention, gave us water when checking in which was super nice. Overall would stay again

The rooms are a little run down. The pool and the spa are closed after Labor Day which was not stated. We stay for the amnesties of the spa after a long day at cedar point. In the summer this is our families go to for fun pool play after a long day at the theme park.
This is a great location close to Cedar Point. Staff is very friendly, rooms are clean, nice pool with a slide, and breakfast was a nice plus. We have now stayed there twice and plan on booking again soon.
