I loved the fact that they give you free ice cream every night and that breakfast was extended til 11 (although we were too tired to even get up in time even with the extension 😢) and they offer free bowling (though we didn’t get to use it) the housekeeping staff was extremely polite. Super close to Cedar Point and everything else. Overall a great experience.

I picked this hotel because I read they had an EV charging station. But I guess it wouldn’t fit the kind of car I had?

Close proximity to cedar point

The staff was very unprofessional. While eating breakfast I could hear employees talking about their personal life and using profanity. There were several families with small children within earshot. The walls were damaged on the 3rd floor just outside the elevator in the hallway. Wallpaper peeling and significant cosmetic damage to the drywall. It looked like it had been there for some time and the issue not addressed. It didn’t look like clean or presentable by any means. Tub drained super slow, standing water in tub while taking a quick shower.

complimentary bar area, boutique style room, cozy and intimate For my birthday, we headed up to Cedar Point for Media day of TT2, and were incredibly surprised to be given a room at the cedar stables boutique hotel when we checked in at the holiday inn desk. incredible room, one of the most memorable birthdays of my life. Can't wait to get back again although I am not sure any experience could compare to what we experienced April 25th!

I liked that it was clean and very close to cedar point.

The morning staff for the breakfast was very rude. I simply asked for bacon very nicely cuz I could see that there was very busy. She looked at me and completely ignored me. She finally brought it out and I said thank you very much and she didn't say nothing she just looked at me. I just think it's very unnecessary to be like that. I do work in the hospitality business as a banquet manager. And if you can't have a smile on your face or just seem pleased a little bit then maybe this is not the job for you.

Very nice location and close to cedar point and very clean and everyone was friendly....

The breakfast buffet was good, but it was so crowded, not enough room for everyone to get what they wanted without bumping into someone, and the toaster was dumping the bread behind the machine 😔, but the lady trying to keep everything rolling did a phenomenal job 😃

The room was exactly what we asked for. Traveling as a family of six, we don't always get to stay in the same room. There was plenty of room with the two queen beds and sleeper sofa in a living room off of the bedrooms. Breakfast was delicious, and the pancake maker is always a win for the kids.

The pool was a little small and was busy when we arrived so didn't get to check it out.

Friendly staff. Great breakfast. Food was hot and ready and easily accessible.

When we got there, there weren’t even enough towels for our family of four. I had to go down and ask for another one, which was easy enough but I think that since they know who will be there, there should be enough towels to begin with. Also, we stayed 3 nights and each showered once a day. There wasn’t even enough body wash for the third night. These are things that should be refilled a little more frequently. It wasn’t something I could just go get because everyone else was sleeping. The pool room was crazy hot and super loud with kids not following the rules. I had to take my kids and leave. Was quite expensive to have these kinds of experiences.

The staff were very friendly and kind and quick to get us a new room when we found mold and a broken shower curtain rod in the bathroom. A staff member helped carry our bags to the new room, as well.

The first room we were given had black mold all over one side of the shower/wall and the shower curtain rod was hanging on by a thread. The new room we were given was in the new section of the hotel and it was very nice. Beds were comfortable, room was clean and spacious. The only complaint I had about the new room was that we only had one washcloth, but that was easy enough to rectify.

Hi the breakfast was good..I loved the cinnamon rolls..the orange juice was very cold and had a good taste to it not gritty.

Hi the sausage was just ok nothing to brag about..I think they were not cooked as long as they should have been..but overall the biscuits were good and the eggs.

The fact that the park was close to the hotel, the restaurant nearby Thirsty Pony was great, the hotel was pretty clean, the bed was comfortable

I didn't like that were spider webs outside the windows, a few areas in the room needed dusting, also that Netflix and YouTube weren't installed to the TV. Also there were no hot tubs:(
