Staff were all congenial and eager to please. Nice breakfast buffet included, and outdoor pool & hot tub are open until 11 p.m. Not "fancy," but nice, neat, clean, well kept, safe, quiet, and a great value - EXACTLY what we wanted! We'll definitely choose South Shore Inn again if we're ever back in the area.

Overall it was an okay hotel. The property was well maintained but the room itself left a lot to be desired. The beds and table were clean, however, it is clear that it is a very basic cleaning done as many areas, like floors, baseboards, lights, mirror, etc were covered in dust/grime Check in is weird - no one is available and you have to call (not great when you’re coming from out of town). Didn’t receive a very warm welcome and felt like an inconvenience. The next morning we had someone walk in our room at 11am. Felt like we were being rushed out. Overall, it was an alright stay but I probably wouldn’t return.

You might think you need a more expensive place to stay at Cedar Pointe. You don't. This the spot. Cheap, clean.. safe.. great place to crash and close to the park. Smartest option.
