The property was very convenient to Cedar Point and Sports Force Complex. Room was recently refurbished and very clean. Mostly quiet, except for the passing train.

This property is adorable!! They did an excellent job of taking a old motel and turning into a great place to stay. The staff is amazing. We had problems getting our room code. The staff was on top of it, and personally called me to make sure I received it and if there was anything else I needed. We will definitely be staying here next time we are in town.

We went to Cedar Point, so the location here was perfect. Super easy check-in! We went up to the lobby at about 10:30pm and they- I believe the owner- asked for my name and phone number on a Ring doorbell. He then called me on my cellphone to give me my room number and access code. Our room was very clean except for a small stain on our bedsheets, but the bed was super comfortable! We felt safe in our room overnight as well. The shower was a bit shallow, and because it is small & the shower head wide, a lot of water got on the bathroom floor. The shower curtain was kind of short so maybe if it were longer there would be less water on the floor. Other than that the bathroom was nice! There are train tracks nearby, so I woke up to that a few times throughout the night. Overall, for the price, location, friendliness of staff, and ease of checking in, we are so glad we chose to stay here! We will definitely be visiting again.
