When I called to cancel she said we would still be charged the $241 deposit as they have a 3 day notice to cancel policy. This would have been more acceptable if we had made the reservation 3 days in advance. There should be some consideration given. We made reservations exactly 3 days prior so other than canceling at same time of booking they take your money regardless. Warning to those wanting to book a last minute get away, don't do it here, book somewhere with realistic policies.

The heat in our first room was only marginally working, but the front desk gladly moved us to an upgraded room. That heat was a newer, more efficient model and was also somewhat cool. Both rooms had space heaters, so we were fine. Noticed the room provides ear plugs. Staff said if it was noisy it should quiet down after midnight when the bar closed. That said, we didn't notice any noise. food and beverage We drank at and Yelped both Oh Taco downstairs and Moseley's Rooftop Bar upstairs. In addition, within walking distance is a surprisingly vibrant restaurant scene, with everything from gastropub to sushi. The next morning, we brunched and Yelped Wake Up and Waffle. Who knew Sandusky was a foodie town? staff Front desk staff was professional and polite. Great recommendations and suggestions. Desk is not staffed after midnight, but they have a number you can call. Desk also not staffed in the morning. You just drop your keys and go! There is a local gift shop in the lobby which has some cool, local options. location This is a renovated three-story building in the heart of downtown.

The pool hours are long 7am-11pm but if you are looking for a big pool to swim in, this won't be for you. The entire pool is 3ft 9" and it's cold as ice. If you just wanna cool off for a few minutes then it's fine but to actually swim no. Also it is incredibly small and if more than one family gets in there, you will all be on top of each other. The breakfast area is clean and well-maintained. The attendants are super nice and friendly and they make sure you have what you need. The breakfast isn't horrible but it isn't the best. Eggs are a little runny for my liking but overall it isn't too bad. The rooms are large and clean. Everything worked, nothing was dirty. Room wise I have zero complaints. Beds are very comfortable.

The views were amazing from every angle and direction you looked. 2 pools and hot tubs. Indoor pool and outdoor pool. Game room. 4 different places to eat. A few bars. Beach access and activities. I would love to go back for a day and not even go to the park but just enjoy the hotel and its amenities. I do want to point out one thing that was kinda frustrating for us. The guy who checked us in told us that the pools closed at 9 but the hot tubs closed at 11. That didn't make sense to us. So we left the park early so our kids could play in the pool just to find out they're both open until 11. Both pools and both the pools and hot tubs. That caused us to take time away from the park when we didn't actually need to. The park closed at 10. It didn't make sense for the pool to close at 9. It also didn't make sense that the hot tubs which are in the same area would be open until 11 but not the pools. While we only stayed 1 day here, we spent Saturday evening-Monday afternoon at the park. Had we only been there for one day, and been given wrong information about the pool times and left the park early for the pool when we didn't need to, I would have been more frustrated. Everything else is and was amazing

Hotel Breakers - Waxing nostalgia turning to disappointing modernity…read more My wife and I have been visiting Hotel Breakers annually now for about ten years, vacationing with her parents, sister, and all of our kids. My wife and her family have been visiting since she was a child. For them the return visits continue to be largely motivated by memories and tradition. I have the benefit of a more objective look at the resort, but even they agree on the following points. Reservations / Check-In : My mother-in-law calls to reserve rooms the first available day they can be many months in advance. Every year she requests three adjoining rooms in the same location of the resort, even supplying specific room numbers as an example. Ever year the results vary. Sometimes we end up on different floors or the wrong area. One year one of the rooms wasn't reserved at all. This year we were in the requested area, two rooms adjoining and then one down the hall. I've never had anything close to this situation occur at any other resort and it continues to boggle my mind how this ask is never accomplished without incident. We were once told the reservation team was not part of the resort but either a fully siloed team off-property or maybe even a separate entity entirely. I am not sure if that is still the case but the process of reservations has been around a long time and is not as complicated as it seems to be made here. The front desk / check-in team has always seemed unprepared and without much empathy. The Pools / Splash Pad : The pools this most recent trip were the dirtiest we have ever experienced. An incredible amount of bugs and debris were in the water and the filters did not seem to be turned on our whole trip. When we asked a life guard / attendant at one of the pools she let us know it was "her first day" and was unsure of what to do. There are elements at the splash pad that I don't think have ever worked in the near-decade I have been visiting the resort. The liner of the pools is an extremely coarse material that I don't think has ever changed and I have never experienced anywhere else. The quality of maintenance and upkeep in the pool areas was summarized this trip by a food tray leaning against a trash can for the entirety of our weekend. The Rooms : Less egregious than the first two points, I don't believe I have noticed much of an upgrades to the rooms here in our years visiting. Furniture and walls displays wears and tears and everything feels clean...enough. Our patio set was pretty filthy this past visit and it was disappointing to have to clean it ourselves compared to the room rate. Speaking of room rate, the prices at this resort feel tough to justify based on the experience on the property. What you are paying for is proximity to Cedar Point and Shores, as well as the beach. The proximity is a great amenity (especially with kids) and we would find it hard to do the trip without it. Much like Cedar Point and Cedar Point Shores, everything appears to have taken a budget cut since the merger with Six Flags. I would love to see the Hotel Breakers put some emphasis on returning staff service levels to their former high levels, put money and effort into maintenance and upkeep, and justify the high room rates by offering more than just proximity to attractions. The Breakers is a historic and beautiful resort that deserves to meet the expectations of those who visit it.

I have to give a special shoutout to Kayla who was awesome checking us in! The lobby was decorated for Halloween and looked super festive and fun, so that was a nice welcome after a bit of a long travel day. The amenities are pretty good, with an indoor pool, fitness center, free breakfast, and a little snack area to buy items. Our room had a mini fridge, which I always appreciate to keep my water cold. The shower didn't drain well, but the bed was comfy. The room was a bit loud, but I sleep with earplugs so that doesn't really bother me. Our room had a door to the next room, which I always think is kind of weird if you're not with a group that you are traveling with, but we didn't have any issues. We could definitely hear people in the adjoining room talking, though. The location is nice and super easy to get downtown, plus you have a huge entertainment complex right next door with bowling, a bar, sports book, laser tag, etc. There was plenty of parking in the lot when we were there.

The arcade is also nice and spacious, with a great variety of games that seem well-maintained. However, there's some issues that really detract from the experience. Customer service was my biggest gripe. The check in guy was pretty cold at first, but later he was more helpful. I was especially disappointed with the snack bar staff. The water park snack bar is in a dimly-lit corner, and when I went in, there was no one visibly working there. After a minute, a lady came out from the back, and I asked if the snack bar was open at that time. She gave me a condescending look, and didn't say anything, as if I should obviously expect the location to be open, despite the lack of an open sign or employee behind the counter. Then another guy comes out and starts making the order and neither him nor his coworker talked at all, just kinda scowled and made my partner and I feel like we were doing something wrong just by being respectful paying customers. They were the kind of workers I'd expect to see at a run-down McDonald's late at night, not a family vacation resort. The hotel itself is also nothing special. The beds are small and not particularly comfy, but the rooms are clean and nice enough. But the walls are THIN and you hear way too much noise from other guests. Overall: good waterpark+okay hotel+bad staff=mixed experience

Location 10/10 Up to 10 minute drives to cedar point, bars,…read morerestaurants, and downtown Sandusky. It would be super lovely if there was a shuttle between cedar point and their hotel properties. Rooms 7/10 We had a combination room. The doors were difficult to keep open so we could go between the two. They were okay. The floors were kinda gross, wouldn't recommend walking on them without shoes. There isn't really anywhere to unpack your clothes. The mattress was okay. The pillows were terrible and super flat, my neck hurt waking up each morning. The bathrooms were clean, there was shampoo, conditioner, and body wash mounted on the shower wall, but one of the rooms conditioner and body wash was completely empty and the staff never replaced it even after we asked. It was really nice to have both a mini fridge and a microwave in both rooms. Waterpark 8/10 Decent. Lots of slides, different sizes for all ages. It was really disappointing that the hot tub was closed though. Woulda been nice to stick our feet in after long days of walking at cedar point. Cafe in the Lobby: - Coffee 0/10 The employees don't know how to make majority of the drinks they have on their menu. We ordered an American with cream and a vanilla latte with oat milk one morning and the americano had no creamer and the entire latte was white; It was fully oat milk and no espresso at all. Absolutely disgusting. - Pizza 8/10. actually was ok. Looked like a frozen pizza. Tasted like a frozen pizza. Other amenities: Very little kid friendly between the dance parties, and craft room. The arcade was a decent size and lots of games. I also like that they offered mini golf, bowling and an escape room. However, they were kinda pricey.

Fridge is a tad small if you're staying more than 2 nites. Shower is short so 6 ft is the max w/o hitting head on shower ceiling. Bedroom needs hangers for the closet bar. And could use shelves or hooks. TVs & microwave & hot water was all nice. Main issue was MayFlies all over which is expected, but attendants just sat around instead of skimming the pool or especially the hot tub where there was a couple thousand floating in it. Prices were pretty high but w/ a bogo deal it's on par w/ most mini cabins.

We checked in on July 5, and luckily they could accommodate an early check-in for no fee. We were able to drop off our bags and chill for a minute before heading to the theme park. The hotel stay was a great deal, as we needed a place to sleep anyway after being at the park all day. The deal was $280 for one night stay, plus two park admission tickets, early entrance to the park, and parking. One thing we liked about the room that isn't in most hotel rooms was the size of the mini fridge--there was a separate door for the freezer. We also liked that checkout was moved to noon from 11am for no charge when we called the front desk. The worst thing about the stay was that we were woken up by banging on our door at 10am by an employee asking if we needed room service, when we had the "do not disturb" sign on the door. We are from the west coast and had not adjusted to the time change, so it felt like 7am to us, and we had been at the theme park the day prior. Ya girl needs her beauty sleep. The rest of the stay was okay. Again, totally fine for a convenient, no frills location near the park for just a night or two. $50 charge for later-than-noon checkout, for those who are interested.

Rooms were fairy clean my wife said the house keeping did not do a good job as the floor was dirty. We were able to check in at around 2pm coming here on a Sunday which was nice. We stayed there for 5 days and paid $125 a night with using a season pass discount. It does come with a refrigerator and a microwave which is nice. Downside is it does get really loud as there are kids running in the hallways and making a lot of noise at night. I ended up taking sleeping pills to sleep. They have a nice pool in the center. Overall, it was a good place to stay and would come here, but I might want to try there other locations to try out next time.
