I like that it was affordable and the staff was very friendly and easy to work with. The parking was very easy. The location was perfect for shopping and close to cedar point. The only thing I think could use fixing would be the cleanliness, it's a little outdated but other than that it's an okay hotel.

It was a cheap room, so I got what I expected. It wasn't DIRTY in the room, but it was dingy, no apparent updates in half a century. The noise pollution from outside is pretty bad - train woke us up many times. Prp: close as heck to Cedar Point.

This hotel is dated but is ETREMELY CLEAN and well maintained. The lobby is luxurious and the rooms are a throw-back to simpler times. Will definitely be staying again.
