Worst hotel I ever stayed in!!!!!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/19/07
Wouldn't recommend to anyone! Stayed here a week ago for a local family reunion and many other family members stayed here also. All were extremely disappointed. Had a non smoking room that smelled like smoke the whole time. Also the lobby and the restaurant were always polluted with smoke. In addition, most of the morning the maids are smoking in the lounge right off the lobby and then they spend half the morning sitting around in the lobby, stinking up the whole place! If you are a non smoker, have allergies or have respiratory problems this is definitely not the place for you. There were bugs in the bathroom. We have two young children and there was an outlet in the room that was hanging out of the wall (extrememly dangerous)! The bathroom just grossed us out, didn't even want to use it. The beds were the most uncomfortable bed I've ever been in and there were no fitted sheets so most mornings you woke up on the mattress, GROSS! We always pack our own, however, the pillows were yellow along with the sheets. The maid service didn't come till late afternoon to clean and then towels would be brought to you in the evening if you even got them. Most of the time we were hunting down maids for things that we needed. The woman at front desk was rude and not helpful most of the time. Didn't have any interest in addressing any of our problems or concerns. The complimentary breakfast was a joke, stale bagels and juice out of a soda machine. We had planned to stay here for 4 nights (we live 4 1/2 hrs away) and we cut our vacation short one night because we just couldn't take the hotel any longer. We even looked into other hotels in the area, but were very very expensive for last minute booking. Unfortunately we were stuck at the Travelodge. I ,personally, came home with a headache I had had for 4 days from the smell of the hotel and a horribly stiff neck and back from the bed. I will never stay at another Travelodge again, no matter how nice it is, as long as they have their name associated with this hotel! It was so bad we are contacting the Erie health department and fire department! They are definitely violating some codes! We also took pictures to document as many of the problems that we could. Don't care how cheap the price I wouldn't recommend staying here at all! Oh and don't believe their sign that says newly renovated, there is a ladder in the lobby and landscaping all around the outside that is dug up, other than that the place is still disgusting! Nothing is new or even in progress! They would be better off leveling the place and starting from scratch!
