    My only complaint was the mattress. It was very firm. But that is all

    Staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. It was an extremely cool room even in a hot, humid condition outside. The area seems safe

    Cheap and comfortable. I'd suggest this place to anyone travelling under a budget

    There's no wi-fi. If you're going to Cedar Point without a car, the motel is a bit far, so you'll have to pay for a taxi. I would suggest "A Sandusky Cab". Good luck trying to get an Uber, cause' there's none when I was in Sandusky on a weekend solo trip. If you're looking to cool off, there's no pool. But from what I heard from the staff, you can get ice and water for the room. As for the rest, nothing else negative can be said about Seacrest Motel.

    The staff was friendly, the room was nice and air-conditioned, beds are comfortable, power outlets are avaliable for charging phones or tablets, and bathroom is included. As for breakfast, it is not included with the motel, but there is a nearby Kroger with a Starbucks cafe, just of a short walking distance.

    Clean, quiet, EXCELLENT customer service in an AMAZING location

    ZERO complaints! Love this place. Only suggestion would be some air freshener in the rooms could be a nice addition.

    I've stayed here a couple times, and Seacrest has already become THE place for me to stay when visiting Cedar Point. Nick (the owner) epitomizes everything good about small motels - individual customer service, a smiling face, and sincerity and charm that is lacking from corporate properties. One time, I had a late meeting and Nick graciously gave me a super late checkout with zero hassle. Another time, I had a late arrival, and Nick stayed up personally to greet me (sorry for the late night, Nick!) The location is super convenient, and the rooms are clean. The rooms are exactly how every roadside motel used to be - park out front, with the room layout we all remember. Even the traditional keyring - love it :). Nothing fancy, but it's clean and quiet, and all you need before or after a day at Cedar Point.

    We liked everything!

    Friendly owner, so accommodating and relaxed! We will definitely be staying again. We love the vintage room, so nostalgic and brought back great memories when all hotel/motel rooms were like this. The rooms, bathrooms, carpeting - basically everything - were absolutely spotless. Oh - and the water pressure is second to none in the shower.. if you are looking for something fancy or modern, this may not be for you, but that's fine. Plenty of places to stay near the Lake Erie islands and this one is on our list going forward!

    For us personally, the mattresses were a bit firmer than we prefer

    Super friendly and accommodating owner/operator! Gave us the easy directions on how to get to Cedar Point and recommended good places to eat. Pet friendly without a bunch of extra charges. Would definitely stay again!

    There isn't anything that I didn't like.

    Nick greeted me upon arrival. Very pleasant man. Showed me where to park and informed me of when he had coffee made in the morning. I like my coffee anytime of the day and he offered to make me a pot for the evening. I asked for recommendations to eat at which he provided. The location was off the street enough that it was not noisy. I would stay here again and recommend this motel to anyone.

    Everything was good.

    It suited my plans exactly. The owner, Nick, is very friendly, caring and personable. There was a mini fridge and microwave and the wifi worked fine. Because of price I think, the word “Motel” can sometimes be regarded as a lesser quality accommodation. Not so with the Seacrest. I was impressed.

    Bed was a bit too firm for my preference. Spouse liked it.

    This property is a traditional motel. It is rather dated but was exceptionally clean and spacious enough for a few people. Owner Nick was on sight and ready to help. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.

    This place was great. Nick the owner was very accommodating. He made sure I had everything I needed and I didn’t even have to ask. I didn’t feel Seacreast was outdated. Probably hasn’t been updated since the 70s. I felt it was nostalgic. Don’t change a thing! Very clean. Cold a/c. Great price. I would definitely stay there again!

    Wi-fi was spotty. If important to the renter then one should secure a room close to the office.

    The owner, Nick, was a very gracious, considerate and helpful host. Parking available directly in front of room making it so easy to unload/load our vehicle.

    Nothing to be honest, the TV' was a little small but I brought a projector so it wasn't an issue.

    The location was close to cedar point, the owner was amazing! Showed me the room before I paid for it and made sure the facilities were up to my standards. Said hi to us every morning when we saw him too! The room was homey and the bed was comfy. No noise complaints. Will stay again in the future!
