The Steele Mansion is a really special spot. I love its history and its genesis: it has its roots in the city's foundations and is linked with Lake Erie College across the street. Eventually it got sold, went into rentals, then vacancy. The owners have lovingly restored it from a shell to a gorgeous, pristine and comfortable place to stay.

Staff was nice and the place was clean, but it was an old mansion that had burned down and been reconstructed which gave me a ghost vibe.
