There are several stairs to get to the rooms with a lake view. No Hair dryer or tissues in the room. The bedspread was thread bare and looked like something from the fifties.
I paid extra for a view of the lake from my room but the only way I could see the lake was by going outside. We did not have the code to get into the room upon our arrival and when I called the posted phone number for problems no one answered. Fortunately there was a cleaning person who happened to see me at the locked lobby door and she was able to get a hold of the person with the codes.

Great location but other than that, it was just OK. Parking is a real issue here. There's very little parking and several spots were taken by people not staying there but couldn't find another spot on the strip. No soap, shampoo or lotion in the bathroom either. Not a single staff member on site.

This is an old motel when we pulled in I didn’t know what to expect. At 3p they text you your room number and code to get in. Rooms are very small and basic. It does have a frig and coffee maker though ours didn’t work. There are no ice machines. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was basic no blow dryers no irons anything like that. But rooms starting at 10 are in the back of the hotel sitting right on the lake so that made everything worth it and there are chairs that you can sit out there and look at the water. Parking is bad very cramped not enough parking spots so you have to park on the street sometimes. Because of that view, I would stay there again

Great for solo travelers. Everything you actually need, and anything else you want is close by. Good location near the strip where the bars and reastaurants are. Pool was warm and clean. Had some issues and they helped resolve them as well as being quick to respond when I accidentally locked everything in my room and had to communicate through some kind strangers. I will be a regular guest there in the future.

The location was perfect. The view of the lake and sunset was beautiful. But, the floor was dirty, the walls were dirty and there were spider webs everywhere. The beds were clean and comfortable. The shower was clean and the water pressure was great. The pool is down the street at The Palms. But, we didn’t discover that til is was too late to enjoy. The pool location needs to be communicated better.

Had an enjoyable stay. Check-in was very easy: received a text with our room # & lock code prior to arriving. The rooms are basic, no frills, all you need for a short stay: clean, great location, comfy bed, cold A/C & hot shower. Love sitting out on the deck just enjoying the sights & sounds of the lake-but you can only really enjoy it during the day; at night the bugs take over, swarming around all of the lights. You’ll get that anywhere near water. Overall, we had a great time & will be back. Some suggestions for improvement: (1) Parking: we found street parking without problem, but cut down on the complaints by painting the spaces bigger so everyone can fit into their own space. (2-and most important) The stairs leading down to the lower rooms are very unsafe. The rise of the top concrete step is steep & the handrail is too low & short. (Ohio Bldg Code mandates a continuous handrail on both sides that must measure the entire diagonal length of the stairs plus a min.12-inch horizontal extension at the top & a one-tread-depth sloping extension at the bottom.) I nearly fell backwards trying to get my old butt up that step. I did, however, fall on the bottom section of stairs (in pic). The steps & deck being the same color & the bright sun aided in me missing that step & taking a tumble. Simply painting or adding a strip of reflective tape on the nose of the step (like in pic) would help tremendously.

Although the view of Lake Erie from our room was incredible and it is in a great location to the strip and all the local attractions, the maintenance of the room and daily cleaning, supply of coffee, towels etc. never took place. In checking in, we received no information other than key code. Nor did we receive information about shared reciprocity with the Palms, pool and access to other levels of decks in our facility. That we received from another guest.
We spoke to other people within our motel area and they all were having the same issues and none of them were satisfied with hotel accommodations. We had to walk a half a mile every morning to get coffee. The current staff maintaining daily chores were very young and it's obvious they weren't given the proper directions on how to maintain the rooms.
The air conditioner change filter light was on. We pulled the filter and had to rinse it out in the shower. It was filthy black. Also, the bathroom sink drain was partially plugged, the shower was needing to be thoroughly cleaned, the floors were obviously not scrubbed. The office was never staffed to address any of our concerns. Our neighbor called the number on the door of office and never received a response.
Our hopes for this motel are to address these concerns to improve future clientele experiences.

Great location and view as well as beach access. However, while in the room we kept experiencing feelings of dizziness and nausea, along with headaches. After a while, we called management and informed them we were leaving. They explained there could be no natural gas leak as the facility is all electric. The next day we researched the effects of leaking wall AC unit refrigerant in small areas, and the results listed our exact symptoms. Informed the motel who said their carbon monoxide detectors had passed inspection, but those types of detectors would not detect refrigerant.
Anyhow, it just would have been nice of them to at least offer to reimburse us for some or all of the cost of the room.

I have no complaints about our stay. But wanted to share some things that might be helpful for others when booking This place is very simple....not a lot of amenities, which was expected. But a couple things that I didn't count on...1. no hair dryer. 2. No USB connection to charge phones. Again, not complaining, just making sure others are prepared. (And I may have just missed that info in the description)
There are cosmetic things that could be addressed, but the room was clean and comfortable. The AC worked great....and thank goodness it did as we were there over 4th July and it was insanely hot. But AC was great
Parking is limited on site as others mention, But we had no problem with street parking.
The only thing that was somewhat bothersome, was the check in process. Ultimately, it all worked out fine, but I tried reaching out to them for hours to get my room # and door code. Had to wait until we arrived and called a different number that was listed on their office door. Again, it all worked out.... But i didn't love having to wait until last minute. Would've preferred to have all that info well before arriving since nobody is on site except for a few hours each day.
Again, simple place, fine for a place to sleep and shower etc, but not really to hang out. Location is good. Right on strip & the water. Private beach is very very small and not a place you'd \"play\" on. Not a \"postcard\" beach. Overall, worth the stay if you are okay with small & simple.

This 15 room motel was simple, quiet, and a great space for my husband and I to get away for a couple of days for our anniversary. We got a King bed lake view room (def. worth the extra $) because you can sit on the deck and watch the sun rise/set. There were a variety of people staying--families, singles, couples, and everyone we met was nice!

Things to be aware of-- the lake or something around our hotel had a bad smell at times--the first night I noticed it the most, but night two it had lessened. WiFi is not great, so if you have your own hot spot I highly recommend bringing it if you need it.

GOTL is a quaint, low-key area to stay on a budget and still have a great time with those you love! We did shopping, walking, wine tours, and sunset gazing. Next time I will reserve Jet Skis in advance because in the mornings the water was so calm and beautiful! We walked everywhere, except when we needed drinks for our room. The local market store across the street wasn't open the whole time we stayed, so we did a little drive east on the strip to the nearest convenience store for drinks to keep in our room. We would definitely stay here again.

Friendly manager and cleaning crew. The cleaning crew only replaced towels no actual cleaning during stay, not even sink or shower. The coffee pot was disgusting with mold inside. Very minimal and tiny shampoo, conditioner and soap. No tissues or extra toilet paper. Also, no hair dryer. Dirty baseboards and floors. Cobwebs and spiders in corners, ceiling edges and shower. Open gap under door at street level for anything to crawl in. Deck area around is decent and everyone seems to use it. Not exactly what I would call a beach. It's metal steps down and a small potion of rocky sand to the water. The walls are ceiling are thin and you hear people stomping among other noises. I would hope that repeatedly reported noisy guests would be asked to not return. The parking lot is very tiny. The sister motel the palms had a pool to use but no towels. It was also, a bit dirty. The pool is also not manned and kids are were left alone to misbehave and act dangerous with jumping and flipping. The location was ideal for walking and being near the action.

Everything was great. Only complaints are parking is really tight. The last parking spot next to the building is scary. You can’t see where the edge of the cliff is. My wife had to stand outside a tell me when to stop. The only other issue was the shower curtain is about 3 or 4 inches to short so water runs all over the bathroom floor and is causing the new molding around the shower to decay. The room was clean. The location is very convenient to the strip. The view from the balcony out back is amazing. Maybe cement a few posts in the ground so folks can see where the edge of the cliff is. Other hint get your items out of the car before you park. Its really tough to open you door without hitting another vehicle. Great stay and location. Ps. Some restaurants only take cash. The breakfast diner a few blocks down on same side of the street is amazing.

The lake view was breathtaking. They were quick to respond to text messages (within minutes). The main issue was the parking. The lot is VERY small. Other guests did not park within the lines, but there is plenty of free parking on the street. The steps leading down to lower levels and the lake balcony could be marked better. The location is perfect for a quiet place away from most of venues, a short walk. I would stay again.

Check in is different, there isn't anyone there to meet you. The process is through a text on your phone and that's difficult if your cell service isn't great. However, when I connected to their wifi (posted on the office door) and called the number for help, everything worked out. Parking isn't great, spaces are very tight, but there's additional parking close. There's a nice night life and you can get some beautiful sunrise and sunset pictures.

Check in was easy, there were no extra locks on the door, just the electronic lock, no deadbolt. Terrible internet, cable tv was good. The room was not cleaned thoroughly it was still dirty in some spots there were dead bugs behind the nightstand,some kind of beads from the last guest all over the floor. The
Fridge was making noises all night
You can hear everything in the rooms around us, we hope the neighbor that was dry heaving all night is ok. The sheets were dirty including the comforter and pillows. We asked for new towels because the other ones were dirty and it took 45 minutes to get, then the on site manager who delivered just handed me the towels and walked away. The
Parking lot was a mess, no one parked in the lines so we had to park down the street. This hotel was not worth the $140 we paid for.it but we were stuck because everything else was booked. We also had a full size bed and it was supposed to be a queen. I asked the management about it and they said it was indeed a queen but it was not! I have a queen at home and there is a difference so i didnt bother addressing any.other issues. Sometimes you get stuck i guess.

The motel is no frills and I wasn’t expecting much but this place needs TLC and while yiu have an older motel there’s no reason for it not to be clean. As soon as we walked in there’s a huge spider we with bugs in it by the door. There were bugs in the shower as well. There’s a window with no covering in it that everyone walks by and an outside light so my husband used 2 hangers and pillow shams to cover it for privacy and to block the light. It is right on the water but not pretty due to trash. I will not stay here again the price was too high for what you get.

Unbeatable Lake Views

This place is great! We had a room by the lake. Our room in particular had a kind of hall to get into the room and unfortunately the AC was in the hall so it was very hot in our room. We did have to buy a fan to sleep comfortably. Had no problems with the keypad entry. Is there actually a pool here, because we did not see it. The weather wasn't great, so we wouldn't have been able to use it anyways. Walk to bars and the strip. Tiny little beach available and limited parking. Bed was a little soft for my liking and the room could have probably used a coat of paint. Long story short, we would definitely stay here again.

Extremely disappointed. Check in at a different hotel 2 blocks away. Website showed lakefront with balcony. Did not receive that. Our view consisted of the parking lot. Could barely fit our vehicle in the parking lot it was so small.Website showed a pool. Again, you had to walk 2 blocks to a different hotel for the pool. No attendant at the hotel. Called because Direct TV was not working, couldnt get anyone to answer until 2 days later after we had left and we already home. Asked if we needed something. Website advertised a private beach. It was the size of a small room in a house. And access was extremely unsafe. Railing was not anchored and moved a lot. Someone could get very hurt. I absolutely would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Will be posting on Social media all the untruths on this website and the false advertising about it.

I was looking for a quiet waterfront room, and Pete's was perfect for that. The room was small but had what we needed. Very comfortable bed, mini fridge, and a great porch looking right over the lake.
Parking is cramped but manageable.
The not so great things:
no staff on site at all. Had to go up the road to get a key.
Sand and dirt in the shower, and someone's dried up bar of soap. Yuck.
It says no smoking, but there was a smoking pole on the porch and the peopme next to us smoked nonstop. They were very nice, but were often on the porch smoking right outside our room. I am allergic to cigarette smoke so that was a big disappointment.

Parking was awful. Access to room was dangerous as steps were uneven and steep.

Cons: pool you can use no shade, but heated nicely. No bathroom to use. Not connected to motel. Air conditioner when it came on was very loud. Lock on door is 7 digit number you had to punch in every time you closed door. Of course that number was in my phone in the room when door closed. At the far end of strip. Let ng walk to get to most places.

The room was very clean. Staff was very friendly. This is not a marriott hotel, this hotel is the norm for the area. Most everything is in walking distance.

This hotel could get 5 stars with just a bit of care. We noticed the “for-sale” sign out front, so hoping maybe new owners will take some time to polish up the place and take advantage of the potential it has. If we are ever back in GOTL, we would consider staying here again.
POSITIVES: Adorable beachy theme, quite roomy, clean & comfy. There were 2 chairs provided outside of the room to sit and enjoy the sunrise and sunset each day. Hotel is close enough to walk to the main strip but far enough away from the crowds to enjoy the quiet calmness of the water.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVEMENT: There was a sign instructing guests to park within the lines. However, the spaces are so narrow that there is no way to park within the lines or get in/out of vehicle. We were forced to park on the street if we were lucky enough to find a spot nearby. The stairs leading down to the lakeside rooms are treacherous, steep, with a useless handrail. The shower curtain rod was broken so it was just laying on top of the shower walls and kept falling off when you moved the curtain. There were not enough outlets in the room for c-pap or charging devices. The one available outlet was missing an outlet cover. The bed could have used some non-slip pads under the feet to keep it from sliding across the hard floor whenever you leaned on it. The worst thing was the bugs-we couldn’t turn any lights on without the bugs congregating above it on the ceiling.
