Arlington Inn

The bed and pillow were rock hard so difficult to sleep. No clock in the room, no ice machine, no vending machines. The room was tiny! Partial bathroom fixtures stuck out of the wall - I had to be careful not to bang my head as I got off of the toilet! Continental bkfast was muffins, danish, and coffee, and I don't drink coffee! To be fair, the woman who seemed to be running the place could not have been NICER. There was just nothing there, including a razor ffor my husband to shave. My advice is to stay far away1

This place is ok, but it is dated and definitely past its prime. It has the bare minimum basics that one would need for a hotel room. Visible stains on the carpets, moldy shower curtains, dirty tile grout in the bathrooms and the toilet is so close to the wall, it’s almost impossible to sit on it. The room does have a mini fridge and microwave. The tv channel selection is not good, so don’t expect to rely on tv entertainment while there. The included breakfast is hardly anything and very, very sparse. Coffee, individually wrapped muffins, danishes and cereal bars - more so snacks than an actual breakfast. It has more of a motel vibe than a hotel. Pros: the staff was very friendly and nice. There’s a large park and beach basically next to the hotel. There are a handful of restaurant choices within walking distance. Room price was decent.

This an older hotel and the styling is a bit dated. However, this did not take anything away from our wonderful experience. We had a ground floor room facing the water front (about 10-15 feet from the window). There is a common patio between the room window and the waterfront (not accessible directly from the room). Even when we could not go out, just looking out the window was so relaxing. Many guests were were there for fishing and you can see fishing boats leaving and coming back. The breakfast was pretty basic (store bought muffins/Danishes, coffee, Juice) but available very early in the morning. They have good restaurants close by (an Irish/German one, and a Hibachi carryout, Wendy's, a subway, the hotel bar on the waterfront, a grill on the waterfront that you can see from your window), and a beach within a few minute's walk. Also, they are about a block away from the Jet Express station (with ferry to Put-in Bay ). During our time there, we visited attractions in Put-in bay (around 30-minutes by ferry), Sandusky (Around 30-minute drive), and Catawba Island (around 15-minute drive). The hotel staff was hospitable and friendly. Overall, I would say that Arlington Inn provides great value, and if one is able to look beyond styling/aesthetics, is unmatched in what it offers in terms of views of the waterfront, and access to a wide range of recreational activities. We will stay there the next time we visit Port Clinton.

The staff were very helpful. Although it's on the water, you can't fish which a place on the water you would think that's an option..also having a porch to sit on but you have to walk around the hotel to do so. Beds not the most comfortable.

Very friendly staff and you can't beat the location. You can walk to bars and restaurants. Rooms need a little updating for the price . Also , no elecators and staircase was slippery. Would stay there again however i little expensive

No coffee machine but could go to office. Older motel but very clean. Close to The bait bar. Really nice to sit outside or stay inour room We came for the eclipse but also to relaxby the water. Planning to go back in May

Its a very nice place right on the water. That was our room. Can watch all the boats go by.The lady at the desk was great. Only thing I noticed needed grab bars in shower, We enjoyed our stay both times we was there, We had same room. We really liked that room. Took pictures from our window. We sat out back on deck. Have nice tables,chairs,umbrellas. If was younger we would go again

Tolle Terrasse mit schöner Aussicht auf den See. Strandnähe

No cups . But all around not bad

Just an older hotel. Clean but nothing fancy. Wished for a coffee pot in the room. Lots of cobwebs around the windows- could use a good cleaning. For the price and location, I would do it again!

Always nice to stay here. Definitely not updated but that's okay because it's everything you need and always clean. Nice staff and love the area. We will be back.

The room was not clean as expected

Very clean and staff was great

The room was very clean.

The staff was very nice and it was in a great location for easy access to the Jet Express. The beds were hard as a rock, the TV barely worked, there was no additional lock on the door, and there were crumbs and dirt around the bed still when we checked in.

Always clean and downtown

Outlets are needing replacing. Very moldy smelling. No screens on the windows.

We come here every year and love it. Clean and super friendly staff.

Liked the view, walls are way too thin, could hear everything in the next room and they weren't being loud

Cute older property. Right on the waterfront.

Great location. Small bathroom.

Teeny tiny bathroom, small room, needs updating. No amenities. Clean and a good bed. Good fisherman’s hotel, but we’ll not be staying again.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Location was perfect for our stay. Bed was old and uncomfortable. Overall very nice.

Based on the price amd pictures, I didn't have high expectations. Let's just say the place could use a makeover. But we were really only there to sleep and the bed was fine.

needs updates. A/C was a noisy wall unit. No electrical outlet in bathroom. Couldn’t get TV to turn back on

Room was small but clean and comfortable. Bathroom was really small. Cramped toilet, sink leaked, could not regulate shower. You'd think you had it set right then it would either freeze you or scald you. Probably won't be first on my list if another trip comes about that way.

This is a very old motel it was clean. It had no heat and it was a cold night the heater refused to work. The mattress was so worn down it was bowed. The bed had no top sheet so we had to sleep against the blanket ok at home not in a hotel. The front desk computer kept coming up with a rate that was 1 1/2 times the rate I was told thru hotels. When I questioned the math she just kept saying it’s what the computer said. Never at this hotel again

Friendly staff worth the price.

Reasonably priced basic hotel for an overnight trip. Waterfront room was decently clean and had good air circulation. Check in and check out process was very quick.

There was live entertainment within walking distance during my stay. The front desk was very friendly and helpful. Would stay again!

The only good thing about the Arlington is the location. It’s right next to the beach house, which is a river bar they had a great atmosphere and friendly staff. It’s within a five minute walk to the Jett Express. I was also charged twice as much because I moved my room to the lower level and wasn’t told of the additional charge.

We had a great time and we'll be back! This hotel is a time capsule from a bygone era. It is not fancy, but it has fantastic people, an incredible view of the Marina, and perfectly located to walk to many wonderful restaurants and shops. They also made accommodations for us to plug in our electric vehicle!

close to boats staff were excellent new trainee was subperb hard worker everyone was very helpful and polite clean room enjoyed stay as every visit

Great location

Nice and low key motel on the water. Good restaurants nearby.

Perfect location if you want to take the Jet Express to Put In Bay. Book a water front room for a great view. Park your car and explore Port Clinton.

Stay here often… location is very convenient for what we want to do

Walking distance to everything downtown Port Clinton. Right on the water front.

Always clean and downtown

Great location.

Location was excellent

The location on the water is nice. Also close to the center of town.

Reasonable rates. Nice place on the water with close proximity to our fishing charter. Close to bars and restaurants.
