Courteous staff, very clean hotel. The bed was pretty comfortable, the pillows very lumpy. The A/C worked great, but the bathroom door a bit wanky. The location good, great value for the $. I would stay there again, and maybe bring my own pillows! An additional chair might be nice.

A very clean hotel. The location was good. The room was beautiful, it was a loft room with a porch. The outside patio was good and had a beautiful view.
There is only one bed and we were 4 so that was a slight problem. But the main problem was that the bathroom door doesn’t close and it has a big gap so it was a little uncomfortable. But I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Very well stocked bar for a small place but only open a few nights, fire alarm was going off due to the waffle maker in the lobby but everything within the lodge's control was very well done, better than most hotels.

I have stayed here multiple times and always have a good experience. My only complaint this visit was the shower would not get hot, warm but not hot. Never had this happen before.

It was a nice, clean, cozy lodge (room).
The scenery around is beautiful country but yet close enough to get to places! Friendly
People!

We got in late around 10:30 pm the gentlemen was really nice got us all checked in and made sure we knew where to go. The room was amazing gave more of a home feel than a hotel feel. When we checked out in the morning the lady was very nice made sure everything was good for us, got us checked out, and told us about the breakfast if we wanted it. I would love to come stay here again if I'm in Ohio again.
