All good except for breakfast

Was excited to stay here. Loved the look of the place and the set up. Only disappointment was the breakfast - low selection and no hot foods - guessing it was because not many guests but wish we would have known. Breakfast is big deal for us.

Updates needed ASAP

The hotel’s exterior signage requires adequate illumination, and the building’s exterior necessitates repairs and repainting. It is difficult to understand how this property has received an excellent rating.

Perfect place for King's Island goers

Perfect location. Close to King's Island. My room was under $100. Clean. Check in was a breeze and the woman at the counter couldn't have been nicer. The breakfast far FAR exceeded any continental breakfast you'd get anywhere else. I had a waffle, cereal, coffee, juice, a banana, and yogurt. I will be back!

Everything from check in to check out was great. I believe at check in , Alisha, was on top of everything and made you feel like you were at home. The room was great..i was impressed by the lobby area where it was an open area and you could just sit and relax. Will definately stay here again when im in town for a little getawy

The ceiling mold over the shower was likely unsafe and unclean. I wouldn’t think that room would be rented out until repaired. I take prescription meds for allergies and woke up with a sore throat and hoarseness. I can’t rule out that didn’t play a role in my sickness.
