I was not informed that their indoor pool was closed. That is the reason I chose this hotel over the others was for the indoor pool. When I asked staff I was abruptly told I could go stay somewhere else. Thought that was rude to say. I also asked if he would discount the price he said that people who book on Expedia already receive a discount. The other 2 workers that I encountered were very nice and pleasant and helpful.

The outside doors allowing access to the rooms are completely broken, and dont even shut. So the hotel is not secure in any way. They were like this during our last stay last year, and we assumed it was a temporary malfunction. Clearly the hotel has no intent to fix it. The hot tub was also out of commission, and per the front desk had been for weeks, with no indication of getting it fixed.

Worst experience ever
I wasn’t even able to access my room. There was some problem with the room and they had no others. I had to find another hotel at 9:30 at night. I was also charged in full by the hotel so I paid twice. There was no manager on site and never even heard from them after.

Older hotel. They have done some renovations. Paid extra for pool side room but the patio was super hot and my view of the pool was blocked by fake plants. Temperature adjustments needed throughout the property. Lots of repairs needed. Staff was friendly.

I really enjoyed that this hotel books to people 18 and older. I’m 19 and I was so happy to be able to book a room. I took my boyfriend to Erie for the weekend for his birthday and it was so amazing. No complaints from me!

Need better service
Location was good. Was not happy about the rooms. There were ants in the first room,the moved us to another room and there were ants there also. Not as many. We ended up going and buying spray and resolved the issue. Housekeeping did not replace coffee and tea. We had to ask daily for them. Only had tea 2 days, because front desk didnot have. They said they would have some delivered to the room, and that didn't happen.

The first room offered had the heat on and it was uncomfortable. The window unit would not turn to air only heat. No wall thermostat. I called the front desk and the lady that answers was very nice and apologized and offered to send a repair man. I replied with a thank you and said we were leaving for dinner, perfect timing. Then I mistakenly joked that noone better touch my stuff. I laughed and even said I was joking. The lady then offers a whole new room. No worries. Haven't unpacked yet. I go to exchange keys to find that the lady at the front desk was very offended and had the owner present to tell me how offended they were by my joke. My bad. New room has ants all over table and in bathroom. I was nervous to say anything about it at this point. Went to the pool and got drunk. All in all not bad

The front desk staff person was rude. The hot tub water was brown and also no towels at the pool. The heater in our room was falling apart so every time it came on it make a loud noise and the windows were so bad that the wind was actually moving the curtains. Never stay again!! The only perk was the manager was very nice and helpful and offered to take one room off of our one night stay which helped.
