The beds are terribly soft, unsleepable, they charge a $200.00 deposit upon arrival, with 10 to 14 day before return. They did not tidy up the room and supply clean towels the nest day. We left before staying the second night, they would not refund our second night but the condition of the room and crappy TV we felt like we were in a third world country. DO NOT STAY HERE, !!!!!!!

Really enjoyed our stay. Comfortable beds and a clean room. I just really wish our room would have had a mini fridge, it would have made our stay much more enjoyable.

Fun weekend

Stay was fun. Room was good. A/C unit was a little loud and cut in and out and could use more towels, but overall was a good place.

It was okay for a last minute trip. It smelled musty and the hallways smelled bad as well. Could be from the water tracked in from the pool though.

Liked: Staff & service
The room was clean but the entire hotel has a musty mildew smell. Also, drunk men in the hallways harassing you anytime you step out of your room. But that can happen anywhere. When you go to the pool there’s no towels, so you have to bring them from your own room which is annoying. But, it is a cool pool area and the location is great for walking to pretty much anywhere. I love that Level 2 is attached, it made going out in the evening really easy.

Hotel needs updated. Did not like that there was not a refrigerator in the room for medication, left overs from dinner or even water. Pool could be cleaned and skimmed daily.

Liked: Staff & service
The room was basic but clean with no bad smell. The pool and swim up bar could have been really great, but the pool was dirty. The water was cloudy and slimy; you couldn’t see your feet. However the location was great. All the shops, restaurants, and the lake were an extremely easy and short walk. Some are right across the street. Just plan on swimming at The Sand Bar instead (which was a lovely oasis that didn’t feel like Ohio).

The Riot House

The Hotel is pretty much a dorm, with it being attached directly to Level 2, the only true “nightclub” in Town. The rooms are much closer to a roadside motel than a city Hotel. But look, come to Put In Bay for the party and not the hotel stay. The hotel is right dab in the middle of the party so we expected lots of noise and shenanigans. There were a few arrests right outside of our first floor window and a few fights after hours when people just couldn’t handle their alcohol. But you’re a short walk to everything on the island. Check in was quick. Rooms were clean enough.
