Avalon Inn | Hotel in Sandusky, Ohio

“I would say this place was okay if you are just using it for a bed. Positives: one of the lower priced hotels in the area. Less than 10 minutes to the pier in less than 10 minutes to the parking lot of cedar point. The rooms were clean and the beds and pillows were very very comfortable. As always I checked for bugs and did not see any. The receptionist was very friendly. The pool area was quite a bit older and the cement was run down around it but the pool itself was very clean. Not so positive the area surrounding the hotel is pretty old. Most of the bricks were crumbling. The courtyard was not even close to what the picture showed in the ad. But I'm not there for that it's just Aesthetics that I didn't need. The so-called breakfast was a clamshell of mini donuts and a clamshell of mini muffins. For coffee they only had powdered creamer which is a big No-No for me. The hallway in the room smelled very strong of sweet deodorizer which is a big turn off. Sad to overpay for such a room but I guess what the area called for in peak of summer. The location was great the bed was very comfortable.”

“Staff was great. Room was gross. Shower curtain was moldy, crumbs on the bed, Pillow case had ashes, But it was cheap and close to where we needed to be.”

“You get what you pay for. I needed to keep expenses on the lower end for this trip and this hotel fulfilled that need. However, the nicest part about it is the main entrance inside, with the outside area near the pool a close second. It’s like finding a book with a super cool cover that you’d assume would be a great book, only to open it and be disappointed upon reading. I expected an older hotel based on the pictures, which it was, but the room, especially the bathroom, was dirty and the plumbing seems to need to be snaked as water filled up very quickly in the shower and sink! One corner of the bathroom floor was filled with so much dirt, the shower tiles didn’t look like they’ve been cleaned, and the shower head had so much build up on it and also needs a deep clean. Overall, nothing seemed unsafe and the bed was comfortable, which was important to me after a long day at Cedar Point. The staff were friendly. If they clean more thoroughly and make some updates to the actual rooms, it would be a decent place to stay. I personally won’t be staying here again and will be checking out a different place for my next stay.”

“The hotel is definitely run down. It is however in a very good location to cedar point. It is very safe and parking is ample. I’d recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place to stay on a cedar point getaway.”

“Staff was very helpful and has a nice pool to use as well”

“Very kind staff, spacious rooms, full sized refrigerators, gorgeous outdoor socializing area with pool and grill in courtyard!”

“Just a place to sleep so not much of a review but it was comfortable and John was helpful and personable.”
