Hi, most of the lower priced hotels i have found seem to have bad reviews. what are the best ones to stay at??
I think the Hampton Inn or the Fairfield are your best bets. They range in the $79 to $139 range. Fairfield Inn & Suites hands down is the best hotel in Sandusky. If you want to look at ratings for all 40 hotels in Sandusky, her ya go. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g50940-Sandusky_Ohio-Hotels.html

If you want cheap, but decent accommodations, I would recommend the Maples Motel on Cleveland Road or one of the cabins at Bayshore KOA Campground. I also stayed at the South Shore Inn one time and had good luck with a room there, and the rate was good.
I have found that all the hotels on 250 are either overpriced, nasty, or a combination of both.... Just my 2 cents.

^What...your feet turning black when you walk around your room barefoot is not normal/common for a nice hotel??
I can second the cabins at the Bayshore KOA. I stayed there opening weekend and they were pretty nice. I searched in vein for a hotel for Coastermania yesterday. I ended up booking with Rivers Edge Inn in Huron because it seemed to have alright reviews for a decent price of $70 a night.
I had to book a room for 4 of us last week and got two full beds at Comfort Inn for $99 AFTER tax. I think a room for 2 was like $10 cheaper. It's about 4 miles away from Cedar Point though.
The Econo Lodge is an excellent place to stay for an affordable price and is 2 miles from Cedar Point.
I've stayed at Super 8 a couple of times (the one near route 2, not near the Turnpike). I don't remember it being expensive and it was always clean. The breakfast wasn't bad either.

I looked into it and Breakers Express was going to run $130 a night. I'll take the room that's nearly half the cost and only 10 minutes further away.
Stayed at the Maples over the weekend. Two double beds $58. Clean room, dated decor, but who cares. It added to the charm. The staff is extemely friendly. Free coffee and doughnuts. Outdoor pool too.
^^ When was that remodeled? I am just curious because when i stayed there in October, they still didn't update to La Quinta standards.

attending coaster mania this weekend and I have two questions.
1. The Maples Motel, do the rooms have AC?
2. is the Knights Inn at 2405 Cleveland a good place to stay?

The hotel itself is fine (stayed there 2 years ago), though certainly nothing special. However, if you're a light sleeper, beware - the train passes by on what seems like an every-five-minutes schedule, and it is pretty damn loud. But if you sleep like a rock, you may not be bothered by it.

The Maples has A/C. It too has trains nearby. You do hear them.My wife who is a light sleeper survived the trains with no complaint.
I just stayed at Roadway Inn and found it to be quiet. They have free WiFi, AC (which was turned on before I got there). Mini-Continental breakfast, free newspaper. I think I paid $55 a night on Memorial Day weekend.
The only one I would say I would definitely never stay at again was the Value Inn. It was nasty. Room was very dirty, drywall was falling apart, the bathroom floor was wet when I got there. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. That's the one that typically shows up as cheapest on Orbitz.
The other one that I've stayed at a few times and liked was the Sandusky Inn. It was clean, Quiet and has a Continental Breakfast. When I stayed there last year, I got a good deal. The pricing there seems to be a bit higher this year.

Which Roadway inn? The one on cleveland or milan? The one on Milan has dirt cheap prices this coming Saturday ($65 for a King), I may jog over and stay this Saturday night IF the weather starts cooperating.
I stayed at the one at 1021 Cleveland Rd. (419) 626-6852

I think I'm going to give the one on Milan a try. It's about $10 cheaper, though, at the same time, that concerns me. Hopefully it's not right next door to a railroad track or all night club :)
