Will stay again
Pros:

Checking in was easy and lady working was very polite. Breakfast was offered though we decided not to wake up for it because we were whipped from cedar point. Definitely a great deal in the price!

Cons:

Floors needed cleaned better, socks turned black from the floors.

Worth it!
Pros:

Better than to be expected. Rooms were clean and well equipped for a brief stay. No, this is not a luxury experience, but it's perfect for an affordable place to crash the night before and after Cedar Point - and the water pressure was great to wash of that day at the amusement park. Added bonus with the pool!

It's Been Awhile
Pros:

All of the rooms (except for the suites) are on one level, you just pull up to your door. The rooms look like they were remodeled and the toilets don't sit low.

Cons:

I have no complaints.

Friendly, helpful staff, clean room
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean. Beds were comfortable for full size.

Cons:

Beds were small. Also, booked room for 6 adults- room was advertised to have 2 full Beds and sleeper sofa. The sleeper sofa seemed to be smaller than a twin size & very uncomfortable. Our 6th person was unable to come at last minute, but I don't know where we would have put her with these bed sizes. They do not have rooms with more than 2 beds available on first floor, there's no elevator, stairs only.

Pros:

"All three staff members" I met were kind and accommodating. The only thing I didnt understand was towel pickup and room clean wasnt necessary because I tidy as needed. I even re-cleaned bathroom just to make sure and there was no uncleaness left behind.
I really do enjoy staying at Sandusky Econolodge on Milan RD and staff. I only had coffee, no breakfast because I left early for errands.

Cons:

Re: towel pickup.
Normally, I thought housekeeper would pickup towels; however, I was more than willing to take to office after the second day because towels wasn't picked up.

Pros:

Staff was very friendly and the place was clean. The beds were probably about 20 years old lol But it was economical and convenient for a one-night stay. I would go back again
