After several stays at this beautiful mansion, we would never consider any other lodging in the Painesville area. Immaculately clean, friendly staff that go above and beyond to meet and exceed expectations, and a great location just down the block from a beautiful walking path. Thank you Steele Mansion for ANOTHER great experience!!!
