Econo Lodge Erie, Erie

Stayed here last October and we thought it was a terrific place---clean and excellent value. This time it was still great value but our party had 2 rooms and each were not very clean. The jacuzzi tub had a dirt ring in it and the floor was not very clean in the corners. UGH!!! Our other room had so much lint and whatever it was behind the night table and it just generally not as clean as it was last time...Both rooms need the spreads cleaned also... The garbage cans in the breakfast room really need to wiped. They had sticky stuff running down them that was there both days we ate there... Generally speaking the hotel really needs to have a good cleaning...

This Econo Lodge hotel made our family very happy. The bathrooms were a decent size. Rooms were a bit crampt but it would most likely be for 6 people. Great free breakfast is huge. Nice staff. Huge pool, ok jacuzzi. Very nice TV. Jacuzzi is a bit hot so don't put young kids in it. Excellent exercise room. Right across the street from Splash Lagoon. Elevator work great. Everything well inline at the hotel. Comfortable beds also offer crins if u have really young ones. Very close to Lake erie about 20 mins. Had resturants around it. Will recommend this hotel. PS: Fast internet access. In all great hotel!

It was really a nice place to stay. The pool was nice, the hot tub was nice, the room was quiet. We had a tv, microwave, refridgerator, and coffee maker in the room. They served a great breakfast, eggs, waffles, cereal, french toast, lots more!! It was a great stay. My only complaint was the bed was a bit more firm than I like. We went for my husbands LECOM interview, and he got a great rest before a big interview.

This time that we went to the Splash Lagoon it was packed!!! They let a daycamp in and there wer no tubes to be had unless you wanted a deflated one. They also had no towels. My hege gripe though is that i was ripped off! I made my reservations over the phone and i was told that i could have a room at the Econolodge for Sunday and Monday for 129 dollars a night. When i checked out , they had me at 129 for the Sunday night and 276 dollars for the second night. When i asked about this they basically laughed at me that i was wrong that tis was my rate, and if i wanted to talk to someone i was to call the manager the next day. Which we did. But she was not there, as she wasnt there for the next three weeks and obviously does not know how to return a phonecall. I think that this is extremely rude and terrible business. I mean obviously they do not care if we return or not. Which we will not. I could go to one of the waterparks around here for the 276dollars. The reason that we liked going there was that it was reasonable, but this was a rip off!! and they don't care about your business. I would never recommend the Splash Lagoon to anyone i know! Oh yes one last thing...the room that we stayed in at the Econolodge that was supposed to be an upgrade smelled like urine and the pull out double couch was like sleeping on metal bars. The kids would have been more comfortable sleeping on the floor!

I liked the pool it was great and very big also it has a jaccuzzi which was fine!! Great hotel Service and pretty good location!! The price range was good!! Very clean hotel!! Our room was Very Clean a little bit cramped but probably for 6 people !! Our room had a Whrillpool tub!! Nice bathroom and good size tv!! The only bad thing is the jaccuzzi is very hot so don't put young ones in it!! They have a vrey well prepared free contential breakfast!!! Close to Splsh Lagoon!! Would defintlely recommend it to other people !!!!!!!

It was great, convenient and reasonable. We walked across the street or took a shuttle to splash lagoon. we used the pool at the hotel. we ate at great restaurants nearby. I came with a large group and we were all accomodated properly. Thank you

I don't know much about it. It seemed nice and might look nice, but it was hard to tell in the dark. There was a widespread power outage in Erie that day, forcing us to check out at 6:00 PM, one hour after checking in. We had paid for the family reservation as part of the Splash Lagoon package deal. The manager took my name and address and assured me she'd do something Monday w/regard to refunds or credits. Monday comes, nothing. I called Tuesday and am directed to the voice mail of the Mgr, to which I leave a detailed message. The response? Nothing. I emailed and called the Splash Lagoon on Thursday, and was directed to the voicemail of the Secretary for Mr. Paul LaRue, who was said to be handling the matters w/regard to the outage. Nothing yet. Clearly the power outage is not the fault of the Econolodge or Splash Lagoon, but there should be a quick resolution to the matter--not in the form of something that has to be figured out, rather it should be a matter of their policies and those of Splash Lagoon. Anyone else with the same issue?

We loved it, the rooms especially the whirlpool tubs were excellent. We have been there 4 times in the past 6 yrs, & wish to return with brother & future sister-in-law on their honeymoon, but cannot get availabilty on Sept 1-4, please let us know if a room with whirlpool tub comes available! Last time we had the honeymoon sweet and just loved it cause it was close to pool. Thank you.

This was by far the nicest, cleanest Econolodge with the most friendly staff I have ever experienced. My room was spotless, with clean fresh linens and towels. My room was nonsmoking and there was no smoky smell at all, even though the smoking rooms were only 2 rooms down the hall. The heat worked great and fast! My room was good-sized, far larger than I really needed. Check-in was extremely fast and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to help me find a nice restaurant and directions to the medical school where I was interviewing. The pool area was warm and clean, too, with plenty of clean spa towels. It is across the street from an indoor waterpark but since I don't have kids I wasn't too interested in it. I was more interested in Presque Isle, which is about 15 minutes down the road. I would definitely recommend this Econolodge to anyone. I just couldn't believe the cleanliness of my room and the rest of the hotel. I have definitely come to associate Econolodge with dirt cheap and dirty lodging. This place breaks the Econolodge mold.

Upon check-in at the hotel, we were given a letter that said that if we were not completely satisfied with our room, that a manager would gladly correct any problems. Well, there were many problems, but no manager on duty to help. Here is a few examples of what we went through: No working lights, no working remote, Pay-per-view was broken & we were instructed to report the problem to THEIR contracting Pay-per-view company, who told us that the hotel knew that the movies were down all day & would not be fixed. (We were assured up front that there were working pay-per-view movies, as this was why we stayed there), Broken molding w/ sharp edges on the floor, something resembling blood smeared all over the bathroom sink, counter & shower, along with dirty towels in the shower, wake-up calls when you don't request them, no heat, and a heater that catches fire ( with a sign on it that even says that it will catch fire if you set it past a certain #...the dial goes several notches past that #! ) and much more! Most important to note that we held the room with a credit card, but told them we wanted to pay cash. We were told that nothing would be charged on the card, and that we could pay cash on check-out. Well, we were promised a refund, when we had said that we wanted to cancel the room & go elsewhere, but that we would have to wait until 7 am when the GM arrived. At 7 am, no GM, just a housekeeper who was rude & threatening. Our card had been charged the same day we arrived for the whole amount. We never got an apology, refund or even got to speak with the General Manager. There is much more, but not enough room to write it all. Beware, Be warned, Be as far from this hotel as possible.
