Front office staff was so nice she signed me up for IHG awards. We normally stay at Hotel Breakers but the breakfast and hospitality at Holiday Inn is awesome!
The hotel was nice, the rooms were clean. It had a friendly atmosphere. The two ladies at the front desk (Angela and Ashie) were what really made me want to come back. They were very helpful, super friendly and overall just great ladies!
The evening cider, donuts and caramel apples were the topping on the cake.
Such a great staff! Had an amazing stay, will be back!
The staff was nice and attentive. Breakfast was convenient and fresh, and they gave us a late check out since when came so late. Would stay there again.

The floor tiles in the bathroom were loose and they had spoiled milk in the refrigerator for breakfast. I was woke up out of a dead sleep around 12:45am to a bunch of drunk people yelling in the hallway. Other than that everything was fine. The staff was friendly for the most part.
Nice hotel. Convenient location. Comfortable room, but had an incident with a bedbug. We got upgraded to a different room balcony suite and was compensated on one of our nights that we stayed.
Room was spacious, comfortable, very clean, no bugs, loved the continental breakfast, staff was very friendly, extra shampoo, conditioner, body wash, handsoap, and lotion was nice, and just down the street from Cedar Point. Will stay here again.
