A place to stay.
It’s a place to stay. It was clean and the staff were friendly. Affordable and the view from the back patio is beautiful. It’s within walking distance of everything, which was nice. We’d stay here again!

We loved it!
We had a great time and we'll be back! This hotel is a time capsule from a bygone era. It is not fancy, but it has fantastic people, an incredible view of the Marina, and perfectly located to walk to many wonderful restaurants and shops. They also made accommodations for us to plug in our electric vehicle!

Good place for value
Reasonably priced basic hotel for an overnight trip. Waterfront room was decently clean and had good air circulation. Check in and check out process was very quick.

Stay here several years ago and it was a nightmare, but decided to try again and was pleasantly surprised. A bit outdated, but comfortable. If you’re going to Port Clinton for a fishing trip, highly recommend staying here. Choose a waterfront room. View is beautiful.

This is a very old motel it was clean. It had no heat and it was a cold night the heater refused to work. The mattress was so worn down it was bowed. The bed had no top sheet so we had to sleep against the blanket ok at home not in a hotel. The front desk computer kept coming up with a rate that was 1 1/2 times the rate I was told thru hotels. When I questioned the math she just kept saying it’s what the computer said. Never at this hotel again
