Very clean! They say in the listing that they offer a crib upon request but they did not have one so just prepare for that if needed. Other than that checkin was very easy the room was clean and quiet.

Nice stay

Nice little place- no frills but very clean and comfortable. Bed is a little soft for my taste but other than that it's a nice place to stay for an overnight.

Great 1 night stay!

Even though I’m 5’4”, the shower head was still too short for me and required me to squat when showering. Otherwise, great renovated place to stay!

This was a clean room with easy self check in. When we were the only ones in the building, we got upgraded free of charge which was kind of them. It was a perfect stay for two adults taking a weekend away from the kids. There was a bit of noise pollution, which is the only reason for the four stars on the "area around the property"

The room was updated. Beds were comfortable. Unfortunately the shower was very dirty. There were a ton of dead bugs on the couch and windowsills.

We were in sandusky for a weekend softball tournament. The room was very nice with the perfect amount of amenities and we loved having 2 full bathrooms. There is nothing on site though. No laundry, vending, office etc. The owners were very easy to contact if you needed something but otherwise it was just you and your room. Very quiet area.
