Fremont Travelodge

When I arrived at the hotel there was no one at the front desk. I had to ring the bell multiple times. Was about 5 minutes to have someone greet me.The lobby and the hotel main hallways smelled of mold and a bad odor. There was not enough outlets to have the fridge, microwave, TV and desk light plugged in at the same time. The TV was unplugged. The alarm clock was not set to proper time. No do not disturb sign. Three rooms down there was a large party with smoking and drinking.Could not use the side doors to load / unload car and luggage had to always go thru main lobby. Breakfast was stale in the mornings and had to go off site to eat. Very old hotel that needs updated .

We booked this hotel because we were going to Cedar Point the next day, so we were really just looking for a place to sleep and hopefully have some breakfast before heading out in the morning, at a cheap price. While the price wasn't too bad, the hotel fell well short of our modest expectations. And I will stress that our expectations were modest - we've stayed in cheap motels while on road trips before, so we weren't expecting anything world class here. But even by cheap motel standards, there were issues here. Everything about the property was dirty. There was a vaguely unpleasant smell, and that's if I'm being charitable. The deadbolt lock on our door was broken off. The breakfast consisted of some cereal, some individually wrapped Honey Buns and muffins, and some bagels in a Tupperware container (we opted to go nearby to Tim Hortons). To give credit where it's due, the free WiFi worked just fine, and the TV was good with a lot of channel options. In short, this place probably can charge $78 for a Saturday night because Cedar Point is somewhat close by. If your expectation is to get a place that's no-frills but still provides the basic essentials, I'd steer clear of here and pay a little bit more for a slightly higher-rated place.

The price was inexpensive. The room has a musty smell when we arrived. It basically looks clean. The hotel was dated though. The staff was neither helpful nor unhelpful. The buffet was lacking and nobody was even maintaining it. If you're looking for a cheap place to stay this is it.
