Just needed a place to sleep for 1 night for our weekend shopping trip. Location is good, walking distance to the heart of downtown buffalo and there is a walgreens right next to the hotel.

Great stay. Everything you need. Coffee shop open early. Restaurant open late. Building a little old but rooms are fine. Cable channels have to be updated. Staff great. Shuttle driver willing to drive you almost anywhere. Thanks again!

We stayed here as it was convenient to walk downtown and had free parking. The front desk staff was pleasant and lobby was OK. Room was very small and the bathroom even smaller. Unfortunately we were near the elevator and the housekeeping closet, so at 8:30 AM the staff were in the hall making a great deal of noise while... More

Stayed here because it was within walking distance of a venue we were going to that evening. Staff was extremely friendly. Issue with the TV reception though. Not all the stations came in so that was rather annoying. Room was clean and had a great view. Someone had obviously smoked a cigar in there the day before though. Not the... More

Average but good stay with a friendly personality, in a smaller older building. Room also on the small side but clean. Restaurant serves surprisingly good food at responsible prices. Always a pleasant smile from each staff member. Safe and consistent. I would stay again

It's basically just somewhere to sleep. There is nothing in the area, the TV didn't work properly, the staff weren't friendly, the WiFi constantly disconnected and you had to enter the password again each time, the curtains didn't close properly, the noise outside the room carried into the room, the plumbing was loud. Breakfast was okay, not a great selection... More
