When you tell somebody that there is breakfast in the morning, it’s probably best that you wake up to get breakfast ready for your? I watched about 10 people try to get into the lobby for the breakfast that was promised to everyone.

When we entered the room it looked very clean. Upon looking for bed bugs [I always do] lifting the mattress I found potato chips and a bottle cap under the bed. If the sheets had been changed properly the cleaning staff would have also seen the items. So that worried me. I asked the manager for a clean room [ showing him what I found]. He was very kind and helpful and got me into a clean room. He also gave me extra towels since there were three of us staying in one room. The customer service was five stars. The pool was very well kept and super clean. We had a great stay there. We were there to go to the beach and Waldemere. It was a fun weekend.
My only suggestion would be to add an outdoor hooks, or line to dry beach towels. There was no wear to hang the towels after swimming or coming from the beach. Hanging the bathing suits on the shower rod didn’t dry them. We had to hang our towels on the chair outside but was not enough room. That would be a great add on for the hotel. Everyone there seemed to have the same problem.
Thank you for being so kind about switching rooms.

This is a motel. The rooms were ok for a motel. They had remodeled our bathroom but the toilet was wobbly. There were a couple dead bugs on the floor. The pool was open but you could not see the bottom. There appears to be a mobile home on-site with non-functioning cars.
I did consider leaving but I didn't know if I could get a refund.

Bed was really comfortable.

Needs a deep clean underneath the surface like the walls could be wiped down but wasnt too dirty though. Chris the maintenance guy tried hitting on my wife which he needs fired from the place. The room was nice beds and comfy. The shower was nice and hot water instantly and clean towels. It was quiet at nights and the pool was amazing, they should put some pool toys for guest though just a thought. The parking was great, you can park right in front of your room. You can hangout right outside of room with the comfy adriondack chairs provided. It was a cool place to stay and would do it again, we stayed over the 4th of July weekend for 5 nights and no major problems.

Overpriced for poor upkeep and lacking of basic items. Beds didn’t even have a comforter, just flat sheets. No box springs for beds. No clock, lots of old, rusty items (lamps), room was not cleaned well. Linen had old stains. Towels were very small and flimsy. Poor quality. Check in area was very dirty, had dirty linen cart in middle with linen falling out, cushion with no cover. Overall dirty and very overpriced. Pool was decent, water quite cloudy. Very close to beach and lots of restaurants.

This property was so over priced, the room floor was dirty needed to be swept and mopped, the bed only had a sheet and a thin bed spread no blanket, we went out and bought a blanket to use. The bed was actually really comfortable the best feature in the room, they are doing renovations but they are not the best craftsmanship. Have stayed in places that I did not pay a lot for that were outdated but was very clean, this was expensive and not clean, towels smelled clean but had stains on them. I would not go to this motel again.

I always say when we stay somewhere its not for the hotel/motel but we do want something clean and safe. Lake Erie Lodge was just that. Its in the perfect location.The man that I talked to in the office while we were there was so nice and helpful. We went on the off season so a lot of things were closed but the things we wanted to do were not far from this location at all. I will definately be looking at the Lake Erie Lodge again when we go back.

When I was able to enter my room with an old-fashioned key, I should have known what I was in for. There were no towels, nor even amy toilet paper. I had to call the hotel to get some brought over. Then I noticed what I thought was a multitude of mold spots all over the bathtub. It turns out those were burn stains from previous occupants. Seriously. Then in the morning when I went to shower I discovered pubic hairs in the back of the shower. But this is nothing for when I discovered human feces (!!!) on the floor next to the toilet! (When I mentioned it at checkout (the guy was AWOL, do I had to wait 15 minutes), all he said was, \"oh, sorry man.\" Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. Who knows what other evils lurk in this place?!?

Great location. Close to Waldameer Park, the lake and restaurants. Was quiet when we were there but it was at the end of the season. Room was okay. Nowhere to hang clothing, not enough towels or soap in bathroom, light fixture was old and one side burnt out, fairly clean but floor could have been cleaner as our socks got really dirty. Staff was pleasant but had a hard time obtaining the $100 cash deposit on the room at checkout. Didn't try the pool but things looked a bit neglected. Looked as if they were remodeling the whole place but not sure. Continental breakfast was practically non existent when we arrived at 9 am. It was supposed to be from 8-10. Not sure if will stay there again.

The room did not fit the environment. The bed was comfortable, my husband said the shower was great. The room was large but there was another room that shared the same airlocked entryway and physical keys as the room we were in. There was no dead bolt, no peephole or sliding lock on our room door. Someone knocked on our door around 10pm from inside that shared entryway very creepy. Didn’t get much sleep knowing that someone could walk into our room at any moment. This property has potential to be a beautiful place but it would require a lot of ambition and dedication to bring it about. It may be that the current owner is burned out or not there or both. I do not giving reviews if they are negative but I am going to this time because of the safety issues. If you want a good night sleep stay somewhere else.

We stayed here recently and overall had a decent experience. The room was updated, clean, and looked nice. The location was perfect for visiting Presque Isle, and the price was great for what we got. Our kids loved the pool, and it was a nice bonus.

On the downside, the air conditioner was leaking. We were told someone would come to fix it, but no one actually did. The beds could have been more comfortable, and my mom wasn’t a fan of the pillows.

That said, for the price and location, it was worth it, and we got exactly what we paid for.

Creepy and Waste of Money!

Feels like a ghetto. Don't waste your money. Drive a little farther and pay a little more, trust me!
We stayed one night only because it was late and didn't have any other options. Creepiest hotel I've stayed at. The guy at the front desk is it good worker, but not helpful. Told him we needed to leave after the first night and he said he would talk to \"his people\" , but never got back to us. When I asked him about it again before checkout, he said he would ask, but he doubted they would do anything for me because of the no cancellation policy regardless of reason.

A bit of a let down

The hotel is in a very convenient location if you are going to Presque Isle. The staff was very nice and seemed to be very busy. The room was clean enough other than spiderweb in the bathroom window, The lack of a toilet paper holder in the bathroom I found odd. It was also strange they the room had a piece of furniture to hold the fridge and microwave but they were stacked outside of the bathroom. The pillows were horrible and need replaced. The sheets definitely need upgraded they were cheap and scratchy. Also, it would be really nice if there was two chairs out side of the room. It may seem that I am being nit picky but the stay was not cheap therefore I expected a better overall experience. We will not be staying here again next year.

Looked updated and modern Online. There were holes in walls and old hair and someones fingernails clippings left on the floor hair and stains on the bedsheets. We asked for new sheets and the man said he had to place them on the bed he followed me into my room where my family was staying with out warning I opened the door and told them he’s placing new sheets on the bed awkward!! Beds were uncomfortable pillows thick and uncomfortable as well our necks and backs hurt waking up. Same thing basically happend with towels I asked for he said I had to turn in the old ones and he would get them I quickly ran to the room to get there before him and run to the shower to pick up our wet used towels to hand him. Yuck on his part no gloves no cleaning service? Idk. No sand, just weeds where the volley ball court was. List could go on. Paid for what I got. There was a nice bay and berry in walking distant for breakfast was cute and clean inside. Gas stations less then a block away.

Though an older motel that might seem faded at first, the rooms have been redone and provide a really great night’s sleep. What seemed to be a new bed with a sturdy mattress made it a very comfortable stay. And, although on a somewhat busy street, it was remarkably quiet. Staff busy, but responsive. I didn’t swim, but others seemed to be enjoying the pool. No complaints. Clean, no frills.

Disgusting!

Stained comforters, old stained mattresses, room not cleaned at all…microwave had not been cleaned for a very long time…it was disgusting. Room had garbage, dust, dirt especially around beds, toilet had urine all over it, I had to clean myself. Bedding had a chemical odor as if they sprayed for bugs. Shower valve missing to pull for shower. It was difficult to use. They took $100 for incidentals and I better get it refunded. Worst stay ever, my young kids were even appalled. Pictures on your site make it seem way nicer. I was taken for a fool to spend that much on a place like that. Never again. I gave them a signed note with all the issues.

This is a nice motel but the owner needs to put money into it. The are charging you the same price as the better hotel but it is just a room. I have been to this place twice in 3 years and it is my last resort because what I paid would have been the same at a better hotel with a complementary breakfast. The ice had a moldy taste. I had to pay a $100 deposit for and damage but the hotel has nothing to damage. The don't even come into your room and clean while you are there. If i would have to stay there again yes if everything else was book like this time.

I stay here because of the close proximity to Presque Isle. The hotel is good for the price you pay, very basic, no frills, but clean.

Nice for the price

Very surprisingly nice in a great location close to the beach the amusement park and restaurants. I would definitely stay again. The breakfast was kind of weak.

Overall it was comfortable. No problem extending my stay. I feel like Frances was targeted by a couple different people staying there. He did his best to accommodate us all and I had no issues with him. Keep up the good work Frances.... You did your best

Shame

Hotel was non smoking and the room smelled like cigarettes as soon as we walked in. The man at the front desk said “he’ll spray it down” in a pinch my family and I just left the theme park near by after 12 hours we wiped everything with Lysol and went to sleep and left early this morning

The pictures were very deceiving. The pool wasn’t working either and that was half the reason we booked here. The room was clean and had a modern vibe to it which was nice. But it was pretty hot and only one half of the room would seem to cool down even with the air down on 60.

Hotel stay

Are first time stay at lake erie lodge. When i stay at a hotel i always check first the beds and bathroom. I had no need to check that at lake erie lodge. Im talking this place is clean. The owners r wonderful ppl and try to accommodate you anyway they can. This lodge is well taken care of. Close to the beach and the park. Please if you ever consider a trip to erie pa look up this hotel. Pool is outside and taken care of

We checked in and left all in the same ten minutes without a refund. My son’s asthma was set off by the terrible smell of the cleaning products and they refused to refund our money saying I needed to contact Orbitz for this. Orbitz called for them to release our funds and they refused to authorize the release so ultimately they gave me the run around instead of just telling me themselves they wouldn’t refund. The pictures are deceiving on how much this motel has been updated. In fact the pictures need to be updated. The sand volleyball court has nothing but weeds growing in it. The mattresses are brownish yellow and they are using the pool house to store them which you can see them piled up through the windows. The sheets and bedding are stained. While the rooms have been updated with new paint, flooring, and furniture, the mattresses were disgusting. There were no amenities in the room other than a TV. The lighting in the room was terrible and there was no security lock once we were in the room. When we asked if coffee was available in the lobby we were told what was in the pot has been there since the morning and we shouldn’t drink it. For the same money go stay in a real hotel and just avoid this one all together. The fact that it’s close to Presque Isle is not worth it.

When we checked there were extra fees, the staff gave us dirty towels to take into the room. The room was filthy and the bathroom had someone’s pubic hairs all over the shower walls and the shower spout did not work. The room had an awful stench and the bedding(which was just 2 sheets, not comforters and there were stains all over the bedding. The refrigerator freezer was not taken care of and completely ice build up. Not trash bags in trash cans and not ice bucket liners to get ice. It was not a nice place to stay. Extremely disappointed!

DONT STAY HERE!! I saw decent reviews on expedia so i went ahead and booked a room. I couldn't believe how disgusting this place was. There are windows that have cardboard in them. The lobby area looked dusty and abandoned. I went to check in and they wanted an additional 100 dollar deposit. Which was no problem but that should be known ahead of time. When i saw the room i immediately walked right back out. It was disgusting! The bedding had white mystery stains all over it. The roll of toilet paper had gotten wet and was blue from something. There were no towels even though we booked for 4 adults. When I went to get new toilet paper and some towels they acted like they didn't believe me and had to come\"check the room\" as if there were actually towels in there somewhere. The icing on the cake was there was a door to a room next door that was being used by front desk staff and there was a rusty old nail securing the door from being opened. The front desk guy said there was no one in that room but i watched him go in and out of there smoking cigarettes. This place is the nastiest hotel i have ever seen. I got my deposit back and left. Requested a refund from expedia who called the hotel several times and when no one answered expedia refused to refund my money. I will never book through expedia again and I would advise anyone else who is thinking about it, don't. Go through the hotels own website. At least if there's a problem you won't get ripped off like i did

The rooms are clean but there were little beetle bugs crawling all over and the shower wouldn’t get hot just warm. They didn’t supply a dead bolt on the doors. When I checked in they said they needed a $100 deposit and they took a photo copy of my drivers license and my credit card which made me uncomfortable.

Don’t stay in this place , the pictures are lies

It was horrible I already chatted with customer service over it I’m
hoping maybe to get some of the costs back. There was no soap in the bathroomit felt extremely dirty, unkept, the towels I was given were grey instead of white because they were dirty or not newly washed , there was a drug bust with 3 cops after we returned from family event that my 10 year old had to witness If I could have had more funds I would have packed up and left myself, a family next door did leave with their two children
