Rodeway Inn Erie

First, I reserved a non-smoking room. This was a joke, I literally gasped for fresh air as the potent toxic smell of cigarette smoke rushed from the room as I opened the door for the first time. It was as if the room had been a smoking room for the past 30 years and they just conveniently changed it to a non-smoking room that day. The pungent odor was just overwhelming! Second, they say no pets are allowed in the rooms, but I could tell animals had been in the room because my allergic asthma, which I have only when around cats or dogs, kicked in within 30 min of being in the room. So the no pet thing is a joke also. Third, after watching the maid one morning from my car in the parking lot, my suspicion that they don't clean the room well between users was confirmed. I watched as the maid failed to change the sheets and only changing the pillow cases. When I first arrived in my room, there was lots of body hair in my sheets from someone else. Forth, the internet in the room is worthless. Half the time it doesn't work and when it does it's the speed of dial up. It constantly drops your connection and you lose your web pages you're working on. Also, if you're a business professional and you're in need of a printer, you're out of luck. They don't have a business room for guests. For a mere 10 to 20 dollars more a night you can stay in a much better motel/hotel without all the hassle that comes with this place. I fully regret reserving this motel and would have found other accommodations if I hadn't prepaid for a package motel/car deal. Lessened learned, I will never stay here again! Do yourself a favor, move on to something better or you may seriously regret it as I have!!!!!

Air conditioner was broken and when it ran, there was a smell

Great location, easy to find, right off the highway...and free breakfast

For an overnight stay you cant beet the value. The rooms decor reflects the budget price but it is out weighed by the free breakfast buffet at the adjacent restaurant. If I was traveling with children, I would have spent the extra money a better decor.

adequate place to stay while dropping college student off...

I was traveling to Erie on business. The Rodeway Inn is right off the exit, and a great location for travelers from the east. One of the lowest-priced hotels in the area, it had everything I needed in a snowstorm. Good heat, hot water, and a complimentary breakfast at the TA Travel Center. Cheap gas, too. Not very fancy or modern. Not the place I'd vacation with the family, but my priorities were to save time and money, and Rodeway delivered. I'd stay there again.
