Baymont by Wyndham Erie
plenty of parking. Directly across the highway from the casino. A little loud being near a major highway and the interstate. Breakfast was a little weak. Rooms are very spacious and clean. I stay here now every time I go to Erie.

Everything was great! Room service checked everyday to see if we needed anything so that was very nice! The kid pool was extremely nice. We got to take our kids down and relax and not have to worry about them so much! We really enjoyed our stay!
