Ricky

Disliked: Amenities
The room felt neglected. The bed was rigid and had significant sag to it. Couldn't get into any comfortable positions. The air handler was very loud and squealing. We had no water overnight in the first night of the stay in our room. I do understand that it was very cold outside, however our plumbing lines were run inside the bathroom walls . Ultimately, we did not stay the weekend as planned and left overnight during the first night.
Poor installation of the air handler that was coming apart.

The staff is absolutely amazing, rooms well maintained, an ideal location, and an almost non-existent noise level all while being priced at an affordable price. I would highly recommend checking out the Steelhead Inn for anyone looking to visit the Erie area.

Was definitely a decent place to stay. You do get what you pay for though. Walls are pretty thin, so you might hear the people next to you. The bed wasnt uncomfortable but definitely worn out. The bathroom is very small but clean. We did have to go ask for toliet paper, as there was none left in the room. Overall, not a terrible place to spend a night, not sure if I would stay longer though.
