La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Sandusky near Cedar Point

10/10 Excellent
"Really nice experience at the hotel this week. The breakfast was great, particularly because the person serving it, Stacia, was friendly and extremely competent at serving and cleaning on the go. Breakfast was well stocked with waffles, eggs, meat, bread, cereal, yogurt and fruit. Thanks to the housekeeping of the room for preparing it so nicely for us. The pool was nice, a little too much chlorine, but fun especially on hot days. And everyone at reception was friendly and helpful. Great choice for a hotel, short drive to Cedar Point and much cheaper than on-site properties."
