I have been going there for years. Prices have soared in past year. Not too clean but adequate. But the staff is RUDE and accusatory. Insinuated that a friend stole the towels when room was reassigned because the lights did not work. Big sign in room warning guests about taking their property. They threatened tto charge for the towels for... More

I wish I had read the reviews. I couldn't even get a room that I had reserved (turned out to be a blessing). A young lady who spoke very little English said the owners were in Cleveland. She couldn't process my reservation or give me a room, so I left. And they charged me!! And now of course I can't... More

This is the email I sent to the owners plus some of my thoughts for the traveler looking to book a place to stay. When I booked two rooms on December 2, 2010 I based my decision to choose your hotel based upon the photos on your website and the fact that your facility had a pool. My group was... More

We went to the lake to enjoy Labor Day and stayed for the 4th and 5th of Sept. The usual owners, who also manage and work the entire place, were not there upon check in they had a nice young couple covering for them who did not know how to use the computer system for billing. Instead of the owner... More

The photos are nice but the motel is terrible. Lobby was old looking and dirty. We were in the last room way in the back. Large room but the floors were wooden and you could hear the people below talking very loud, tv going all night long and the doors banging shut. The bathroom was large enough but not handicap...

We stayed here on a Saturday night this summer because the motel we usually stay at in Erie was booked. I'm kind of glad it was, because we really liked the Bayfront Inn, maybe even better! We had a non-smoking king room, and the bed was comfortable; we slept like babies. It was a nice size room, with a fridge,... More
