After having to leave the filthy Microtel, we ended up at Castaway Bay because there was literally nothing else available elsewhere. Though this was better much better than the Microtel, it wasn't the quality I expected.
Mattresses could have been much better quality. I want a good nights sleep on vacation.
The lobby was nice, but the in room amenities weren't great. No wifi conection, and everything was so expensive. For instance, a 12 inch Pizza Hut pizza 1/2 pepperoni & 1/2 cheese cost us $22.00.
Seeing that this is owned by Cedar Point, it would have been so nice for them to have shuttle service to the park, instead they make you pay $10.00 (full price) to park. There were no ticket bargains that couldn't be found elsewhere. I would have liked to have the option to not use their indoor waterpark for a reduced fee. I'm so tired of being taken advantage of financially, unfortunately I felt very financially taken advantage of at Cedar Point.
The room was clean, sans the many F bombs that magically appeared on the bathroom mirror when the bathroom was steamed up. This leads me to believe that not all surfaces are thoroughly wiped down after every use.
And beware the so called deal packages listed in the big brochure sent out at the beginning of the year. The brochure offers what appears to be a 2 night package at a price worth the extra bucks, but doesn't mention that this price is per night. Because there are no discounts given on admission, etc..., you can pick and choose your own extras and save. This package is not worth the extra money, and believe me, it's all about the money.
