We stayed 3 nights while visiting Cedar Point. Location was perfect to get to the park and the downtown area quickly. Older building, but dont be fooled it was very clean and comfortable for a family of 4. Pool and Hot tub area were a great place to gather at the end of the day. Breakfast was good each day!

Bike Week 2025

This hotel was very close to downtown Sandusky for bike week. The family run Hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. We loved the classic and vintage style of the Hotel. We will definitely stay here next year for Mike. We can recommend this place to our friends.
