We have stayed at cedar cove a few times this year so we could take our kids to cedar point and get the most out of our passes. Its affordable and very close to the park. Theres a restaurant/bar right across the street and gas stations close by to pick things up if you need to. They also have a very helpful and friendly staff, very comfortable beds and an outdoor swimming pool our girls used allot. Then they have a free small breakfast in the morning with a pancake maker & toast or bagels, cereal, juice or coffee and some little donuts or muffins. Its a great little place for a basic stay and very convient if your going to cedar point. The only issue my family had was the dirty floors, we had to wear our shoes in the hotel room or your feet get black. You cant tell they are dirty by looking at them but walking on them is a different story. All in all we had a great stay and for the price we can deal with the dirty floors!

The hotel is actually great and convient. We go to cedar point and it is very close and easy to get to. The staff is great and friendly and the breakfast is basic but free and good with different options. The beds are super comfortable too, the only issue we had was the floors. You cant walk in your bare feet bc the floors will make your feet black. I dont know why they are so bad but we've stayed 3xs in this hotel & everytime it's the same way. They have the fake looking wood in their rooms and my kids feet were so dirty from the floors i made them wear their shoes, we arent super picky people so its obviously not a big enough deal to keep us from going back, we are planning 2 more trips there this year and we will prob. Stay here again bc everything else is great!

This was a traumatic experience for my family. On the first night in the hotel my daughter woke me up crying in the middle of the night saying there were bugs in her bed. I checked and found 3or 4 ants. I assured her it was ok I got them all and she should go back to sleep. She ended up sleeping with me. The second night same thing. Middle of the night ants on the floor in the bathroom dad. Again 4-5. Killed them and went back to bed. The 3rd night was the bad one. Woke up and there were ants everywhere!!!!!!!!! My bed her bed our clothes our bags the bathroom. I’m not talking 4-5 ants either I’m talking thousands and thousands of ants. I work in a lumber mill and this was worse then anything I’ve ever seen. I could not for the life of me figure out what was attracting them because we didn’t bring food into the hotel. So after I wake up to my daughter literally covered in ants I look around and find the remnants of someone’s grapes. Which means after 3 days of “cleaning” our room there was still the guest before us’s food garbage on the floor. I changed hotels for the remainder of my stay in Sandusky. I called the hotel and someone was supposed to have called me back. Been 2 days and haven’t heard nothing. I feel like a terrible dad for putting my children through this. Please Learn a lesson from me. The early access just isn’t worth the trauma this has caused my child.

Happy traveler
Convenient to cedar point . Budget friendly . Staff friendly , quiet rooms , pool open from 9 am - 11 pm , it’s a decent priced motel without all the bells and whistles . The 100 deposit hold was a sticker shocker . Still waiting for that to be credited back to my account but it’s been two days so hopefully soon . Only shampoo dispensers in room no conditioner dispenser . But room was clean bed was a tad bit uncomfortable. Some chips on wall in bathroom . Internet accessible was good . This is an excellent choice for budget family vacation stay . Located at entrance to cedar point drive . Have stayed at higher price places close near there a noise level was insane , so this was a breath of fresh air . Occasional train but to me it was soothing . Continental breakfast : cereal , yogurt ,bagels , toast ,fruit , coffee , juice , muffins , etc . Will def revisit when the family visits the Sandusky area again .

Overall very satisfied, bathroom was clean and updated, which I appreciate. Beds are extremely small, but comfortable. The breakfast offers a lot of carbs and very little to no fruits or protein options.

Beds were comfortable, good value for the money. Rooms were small but adequate. Make sure to bring a noise machine or earplugs because the train goes through every 15 minutes all day and night. Breakfast was good. We will be back.
