Pros:

We booked a suite months prior and at check- in which was an hour after check- in started, we were told our room wasn’t ready. We could wait 30 minutes for them to clean it. The excuse was they had many check-outs that morning and hadn’t gotten to the suites yet.

Budget friendly
Pros:

Loved the location being very close to University of Buffalo & The Station; as my trip was mainly to help my daughter settle in at her new campus and apartment. Loved the parking space, cleanliness and staff.

Cons:

Breakfast options were quite good but repetitive and monotonous. Also, they only clean once a week - bed and vaccum. However, you can request towel change, coffee, tissues and toilet supplies as needed.
