I recently stayed at the Colonial Motel of North East, PA, and I was blown away by the incredible hospitality and kindness of the family who owns and operates it. After being caught in a long snow-related traffic jam, I arrived early Saturday morning feeling weary. The family went out of their way to accommodate me, helping me get into a room early and even offering food to make sure I was comfortable. Their genuine care and dedication to their guests truly stood out. The room was spotless, cozy, and exactly what I needed to recharge. It’s clear this family takes great pride in their business and treats their guests like extended family. If you’re ever in the area, I can’t recommend the Colonial Motel enough. A big thank you to the team for making my stay so memorable and showing what true hospitality is all about!

The room was clean and spacious and the shower was great. My only criticism is that there were 2 double beds in a space that could easily accommodate 2 queen beds.

Great price, smaller motel but very well taken care of property, perfectly located for Lake Erie Wine Country. Its a 1960's motel but rooms are updated very nicely and very clean. The kitchenette in the room was very nice - included kitchen sink, 2 burner cook top, apartment size fridge, dinning table, microwave, coffee maker (including supplies), toaster, pots, pans, real coffee and drinking cups.
