    When I arrived the clerk appeared to be new at his job and the young person teaching him chose to ignore my desire to check in and go to my room and instead spent 30 minutes instructing the new employee in how to check someone into a room. I will be sure never to stay here again for any reason.

    My children and I stayed in the family room. It was perfect for what we needed, close to presque isle, 3 beds, fridge with freezer and microwave. There was a mouse that visited our bathroom at night. Note that there is NOT any free breakfast on weekdays.

    The room was fithy. Half of the plugs didn't work. Not enough lighting. The carport was so dirty that after a shower my feet were dirt from walking in the room. The mattress cover was dirty and old. The box spring cover was dirty and old. Front desk staff was rude. Cleaning staff and maintenance were very nice. They still use keys but because the door knob was damage i had a hard time getting into my room.Breakfast was cheap and only on Saturday and Sunday. The picture don't match the property at all. It is run down, the wifi was awful couldn't work while there. Parking is okay as long as the residents aren't using it. There are people that live there that keep there animals outside all day on chains. I paid to much for this room. I have never stayed in such a awful hotel in Erie. I WILL NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN!! I advise no one does.

    We booked for 2 days paid 203$ and they said it was only for 1 day and chased us out said it was for 1 day im upset

    well, first of all, it was falsely advertised as free breakfast, which was not provided. which did not make us happy with a child. price did not correlate with the room. they managed to put 2 beds in a room when originally was one, so one should squeeze between the bed and wall (3-4" space) to get into it. wi-fi is a joke, even after rebooting the extender, wi-fi signal periodically disappeared. too bad, the location is fantastic, but humans can ruin all good, we know this well.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The Steelhead Inn is a clean no frills motel with fantastic location to restaurants and Presque Isle State Park. It is our 'go to' location for rwasonably

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    On entering, the room smelled like body odor/unclean carpet. This was lessened enough to just spend one night (we were pressed for time and would be leaving early the next AM anyhow) by turning the fan on on the air conditioner, but the smell did remain and there were some fruit flies in the bathroom. Additionally a long-term guest in Rm 7 or 8 made us uncomfortable by staring hard at us every time we walked by/were outside of our room.

    Needed area to hang clothing.

    STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! An absolute hell hole , have a “maintenance man” living in the parking lot . The fridge was broken and not fixed, the ac was broken and not fixed . The room claimed it accommodated 12 people but only accommodated 3 people . An the staff is a nightmare. Spent 400 for 2 nights and in the family room you’re only proved a microwave so we were grilling and they told us that it’s not allowed and made us cook elsewhere . Take your hard earned money elsewhere

    There was no type of breakfast as stated including no coffee. Pillows were completely flat with hardly any stuffing. Asked for 3 more and kindly brought 3 decent ones. Room had carpet and not laminate flooring as stated. AC was not needed it was a cooler day. Shower was decent but only half dollar size soap discs .

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Not far from the lake or food . Beds are comfortable showers hot. Great little hotel. Will stay there again No microwave.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    It was located close the boat ramps. The staff were decent at correcting the shortcomings I had with my stay The place is pretty run down. Upon arrival the tv in my room didn’t work, the AC/heating unit was very loud, they only table lamp in the room flickered on and off when in use and there were ants in the bathroom. There was no toilet paper or drinking glasses in the room. The hotel is misrepresented on their website. The website offers breakfast and coffee daily. I was told that only happens during the summer months. It also claimed electrical an electrical hookup to charge boat batteries. This didn’t exist. The staff had to run an extension cord from the building to accommodate the need.
