Ok Stay, Can’t Say I’d Return.

Checked in, staff was very friendly, slight delay of having a room ready even though it was a hour past check in time, but luckily got a room once they reached housekeeping for a status, property seemed newer and outside area was good. Upon arrival in the noticed a few odd things, no mirror in the bathroom, oil of some sort leaking from the door, went to turn on the tv and it turned on, but remote wouldn’t do anything else and tv appeared to have lines through it like it was broken. Bathroom was ok besides the mirror missing, shower could be cleaner. Went to the front desk on our way out and let them know of the issues with the room, staff was already aware of the issues with that room but did not offer to change our room, said the mirror was ordered a while back and gave me another remote for the tv, second remote changes channels and first turns on/off tv and controls volume so kind of a hassle. Once turning on the AC, it sounded like a generator was running in the room from then on, it was loud enough and vibrated enough to wake us up in the middle of the night basically every night, but being summer it was needed for cooler air. Pool area was ok, sand in the bottom of the pool but water appeared clear. Never tried breakfast. Overall we were disappointed of the conditions of the hotel being that it was newer, was hoping for a more enjoyable stay. Value wise, price wasn’t bad for the stay. Upon returning to Erie, I would definitely look for a different property to stay at.

The staff was friendly and polite. The rooms, lobby and restaurant was clean. Outside the lobby there was overflowing garbage during the day and later that night. It was cleaned up the next day. Please be advised breakfast is not free at this location. We have stayed at Holiday Inn Express in othet state's and breakfast was free. This was confusing. The staff explained very nicely that we needed to pay for breakfast when the hotel has a restaurant. But we did not know this hotel had a restaurant. Everything was explained to us and worked out but I think customers need to be warned.

We stayed at the same property as we went to our destination and returned home. The rooms are spacious, clean, nicely appointed. The stafff is very helpful. What I didn't like was a $75 hold on my credit card each time (I thought that was higher than most places), a charge for breakfast (most places offer that for free). At 2 am, I got a $5 charge for an unexplained expense. In the morning as we left, I asked about it. It was for parking. Are you kidding me?? If I'm staying at your hotel, why would you charge me to pay to park there? Should I park somewhere else ? It's ridiculous. Because of that feeling of being "nickel and dimed" with charges like this, I'm not sure I'll choose your hotel again.
