Hotel is a bit dated and the room cleanliness wasn’t the best. The front desk staff was very responsive and helpful. They checked in with us during our stay to make sure our stay was going ok.

Amazing. The front desk lady was very nice. Breakfast was also good.
Clean & comfort room. The staff was nice & pleasant. The breakfast was delicious what we had because there was a lot of teams present and she couldn’t keep up with how much the guys were eating.

Although the property appears a little run down and the plumbing wasn’t great, the customer service was excellent. We visited for the Half Ironman in Sandusky and were beyond impressed that breakfast (both sit down and bagged) was available from 4:30am!
