Hotel was clean, but our room had a foot stool that hadn’t been moved and had trash under and behind it. Breakfast was super minimal, very little variety. Hot tub was closed the entire time and pool got closed halfway through our stay

When checking in the gentleman at the front desk had zero personality and was very short with us. When we got into our room our AC was making a very loud noise when we investigated it there was Raman/ noodles in it. We tried to get ice but all the machines were broken, the pool was green and the hottub was broken.

Great stay! Perfect Location, Value & Clean!

Great location, nice / helpful staff, and clean all around with updated bathroom. Very peaceful stay, nice staff & people staying were quiet & respectful. Great value and will definitely stay again. 1 min drive away from Univ of Buffalo north campus which we were touring and close to highway etc. Short drive to stores / restaurants but that was fine. Breakfast was fine / quick type but worked well for us to grab / self serve type which we preferred over waiting for slow wait staff during rush. Breakfast included staples like oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs/ scrambled, waffles, sausage, toast/ English muffin, coffee/ tea, juice, etc.
