The motel is a nice, quiet place close to the Peninsula, which was why we chose it! The staff was outstanding. It was decent in cleanliness. Room features all worked including air! And it was very affordable!! Great deal for the price!!

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.

The walls a thin and noises in neighboring rooms are audible. There was a strong smell of mold in the bathroom. On the positive side, the property is clean and rooms are equipped with microwaves and minifridges.

I had a very bad experience at Steelhead Inn - I arrived the evening of my reservation and they had no rooms for me; they had overbooked the Inn. I had to scramble to find another hotel room in the city. I thought it was unacceptable how they handle the property reservations, and the front desk staff told me this has happened before.
