This motel was very clean, especially the bathroom. The beds were not comfy, pillows were lacking, and the wiring for the coffee maker/microwave was sketchy. Also, the TV remote didn't work and had to be replaced. Then, the TV just shut off and wouldn't come back on as we were getting ready to leave.

Check-In was easy and fast but other than that it was a very bad experience. Room was very small. Bathroom is almost claustrophobic neighbors screamed and yelled all night long fighting. I had no TV waited up till 3:00 a.m. for somebody to come and fix it and they never came

I stayed because they have a heated pool advertised. We checked in in 6/19 and stayed for 2 nights. Upon checking in I asked to cancel due to the pool not being open. They said I couldn’t. We went to our room. The tv didn’t work. There was no lightbulb in the lamp. The beds were so soft and the springs were poking through. The pillows were so soft. We had to climb over the bed to get to the fridge. The tv was reprogrammed and would randomly shut off and change stations. The shower didn’t drain and the toilet didn’t flush. I would not stay here!!

I inquired about late check-in because we were driving in from Ft. Wayne, Indiana. The front desk associate said they would leave the motel room door unlocked with they key inside. This made us very uncomfortable because it's very unsafe. My mother paid for the room for this reason and asked for a refund but was denied. When we arrived to the motel room, it was dirty and unclean. There were people hanging outside the rooms and drinking and smoking. The property felt unsafe. We left the property and went somewhere else for the night. I really would like for my mom to get her money back.

From the moment I pulled in I knew it was going to be a disaster. The property looks rough and the pool is green and cloudy. When we entered our room it was hot and SUPER small. We turned on the yellow stained, dusty window unit AC and got an unpleasant musty smell. At first glance it was clean but as we looked around we discovered a dirty bathroom, a used washcloth still in the shower, bugs in the sink, stained furniture, etc. We had to ask for toilet paper and towels because there were none. When we got the towels there were stains all over them. The walls are paper thin, which was unfortunate at 3am when the neighbors were fighting about getting high after we seen them standing in their doorway smoking what looked like a crack pipe. I felt extremely uncomfortable and unsafe, we blocked the door nightly with a chair because there is no deadbolts on the door by the way. Had I had the means to do so, I would have turned around and left the minute I seen the room. But, if you’re looking for a quick fix or possibly a prostitute, this place is perfect for you!

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.

This was a great little affordable motel. The room was nice and everything was clean, if not a bit cramped but all you really do is sleep there. Will definitely stay again.
